So far tonight, I’ve had three separate dreams about dying. I can’t remember the first one fully, but I saw some kind of aluminum alien craft—it looked like flowing silk in the air, really surreal. I remember looking up at the sky and seeing this absolutely stunning religious scenery. It was so vivid, but when I asked people around me, no one else saw it. Later in the dream, I was shot and killed, but I can’t recall by who or how.
The second dream was more personal. I was in a dispute with a woman who seemed vaguely familiar. She came into my old house, and during a fight, she stabbed me to death.
I just woke up from the third one. This time, there were these six guys with some kind of alien AI boat technology (I know—wtf). They destroyed my car for fun. I ended up in one of their houses, talking to one of the guys. As I left, I even forgave him for what he did to my car. He said, “You’ll get like 30-40k” (I assumed for insurance). I looked at his house number to file a claim later, then glanced back to see him cleaning his truck/trailer. Out of nowhere, he pulled a handgun and shot me in the head. I remember the sensation of falling, the betrayal, and even my chain swinging around my neck as I died.
What the hell. Should I go back to listening to Bob Marley while I sleep? I didn’t play it tonight because my girl is next to me, and that usually keeps these dreams away. Watching my mind conjure up this stuff is so unsettling. Sorry if this all sounds ridiculous.
Dreams of dying can be incredibly unsettling, but they rarely predict literal death. Instead, they often symbolize transformation, endings, or unresolved conflicts.
Alien and Religious Symbols: The alien craft and religious imagery suggest you may be grappling with existential questions or searching for meaning.
Stabbing and Shooting: These violent acts might symbolize feelings of betrayal, vulnerability, or unresolved disputes in your waking life.
Recurring Theme of Death: Dreaming of dying multiple times in one night could point to stress, fear of change, or deep emotional processing.
Your habit of listening to Bob Marley at night might serve as a subconscious comfort or emotional anchor, which could help calm your mind. Consider journaling your feelings before bed or using other calming rituals to set a peaceful tone for sleep. Your mind might just be processing some heavy stuff right now, and that’s okay—you’re human.
