Everyone grieves differently after the loss of a loved one. Many people cry their hearts out, while others go silent and withdraw inward.
Some people act as if nothing has happened or try to avoid thinking about it. Nonetheless, many people share the practice of remembering departed loved ones in their dreams.
The subconscious decides what we dream about at night, and if you’ve ever dreamed about a dead person, it could imply something.
So, can dead people communicate with us in our dreams?

Visitation dreams are what people have when they have visions of the deceased, according to Patrick McNamara, associate professor of neurology and psychiatry at the Boston University School.
“Dreams of the bereaved where the dead appear to the bereaved in dreams and look to be very much alive,” as McNamara puts it.
The 67-year-old neuroscientist blogs often under the name Dream Catcher on the website Psychology Today.
McNamara has written extensively about dreams and their interpretation. And he claims there’s generally a rational explanation for visitation dreams.
They aid in the process of healing from emotional trauma.
He writes about a dream he had after the death of his parents. McNamara argued that this type of dream, known as a “visitation dream,” was evidence of survival after physical death after having one himself.
