This week, I will answer a common question about dream visitations: Why did my deceased loved one visit my sibling/child/friend in their dream and not me?
Tammy, a follower of my work, asked this question, wondering why her ex-husband came to her son and daughter instead of her. She wondered if it was because she and her husband were divorced, even though they still loved each other.
Dream visitations occur when a deceased loved one (now in spirit) visits us while we dream. In most cases, we dream that we’re in a room with the deceased. Sometimes, it’s the room we’re sleeping in, but often, we’re in a different location. Usually, we’re merely conversing with our loved ones, but sometimes, they show us a scene to teach us something.
In the typical dream visit, we talk with our deceased loved ones and can see they’re okay. They often tell us that they’re happy, at peace, watching over us, and loving us from the spiritual realm. These dreams are poignant, comforting, and reassuring experiences, and we tend to recall them decades later as if they occurred the night before.
Tammy’s Question About Dream Visitations
“Hi, Bob. My name is Tammy, and my story is about my ex-husband, who, at the age of forty-nine, died of a massive heart attack in his sleep. That was unfortunate enough, but my son, nineteen years old at the time, was the one who found him. It was very traumatic for all of us involved, and we still struggle with it to this day.
“My son has told me that his dad has come to him in a dream state. Our daughter has also had dreams of him trying to comfort her and let her know he’s around.
“I talk to him and think about him every day. I had eighteen years with the man and two children. Regardless of a divorce, there’s a connection.
“He doesn’t come to me in dreams and hasn’t ever come to me in a dream, and I wonder, is it because we got divorced that he doesn’t? Because, again, I talk to him and ask, ‘Please come to me and just let me know that you’re okay. I’d love to know, just to reassure the kids and myself, that you’ve made it and you’re happy.’ And again, he hasn’t.
“I don’t know if I want it too badly or what the reason is, but I would give anything to have a dream visitation, to know that he’s made it okay, and to have confirmation that he’s there. Thank you for your time.”
