grandfather

[cmesa2005]

I had a dream last night that I saw my grandfather and I went to hug because II forgave him for what he did to me when I was a child will he pushed me away and said no because I put him jail so I walked away later on he came to me and said since your over 18 i'm going to get you butt naked and finish what I started when you where little I told him no your not and I turned away and he grabed my arm and said come here then i woke up freaked out. I was wondering if this dream means anything or is it that my mind is trying to process what happened. I'm just wanting to know because i'm still freaked out alittle and he's been dead for a few years now.

Hi,
If you had hugged him, it would mean an illness of you will cure.
But a deceased grandfather or ancesters means you will have a better situation.
If a passed away person turned his face away or was angry means you haven't done his will or something he asked you.

The meaning of grandfather, symbolically, is usually a very positive one showing that the wisdom within you is in effect...when a grandfather appears it shows the part of you that influences your decisions as of late (the part that has wisdom beyond your years).

However,
Apparently there was a negative history with your grandfather in real life and that takes priority in meaning. So it appears as if you are willing to forgive him (with your feelings and emotions, for what he has once done to you), moreover, you have not resolved the incident as it sits with you, inside of you (your memory as to what happened). Apparently you have not explored it enough to be allowed to come to a peace, through forgiveness.
It is one thing to forgive but unless all is explored in the process, genuine forgiveness can not take place.

sailrmc I really liked your interpretation of grandfather, it makes a lot of sense.
