Buried in his past are secrets that were never meant to be found - and dark, dangerous men willing to kill to protect them.Sir Humphry Foster had lost the greatest part of his estate, and then, playing, as it is said, for a dead horse, did, by happy fortune, recover it again. [4] If it’s not an actual person you know, then this stranger is going to represent a part of yourself, or it can represent just the forces at work that are making this change happen.” If you have this dream, Loewenberg encourages you to ask yourself, “Am I feeling pressured to change?” If you’re chasing an overdue invoice or an unsigned contract, all you have to do is highlight it and gently remind them that you would love a response.

Of course, whose funeral it is makes all the difference. If it’s your own funeral, what part of yourself is now at peace?

First off, if you have a huge fear of COVID this could just be your release of that stress,” Loewenberg says. “But otherwise, any form of disease that kills you in a dream is the way your body is telling you, there’s something going on in your life that’s very unhealthy.
