Hi, my name is Laura and I am new to this site. Within a period of 4 years I lost my Mom, Gran, and my brother committed suicide 6 months ago. My world is in complete turmoil. I have so many questions that have no answers. I keep dreaming of my loved ones who have passed over. Sometimes it feels so real, that I am not sure whether it actually was a dream or a reality. The latest dream was about my Gran. We were best friends, we could spend hours talking and having fun together. My dream begins with us climbing a very steep flight of steps, up a mountain path. It's a very steep climb, and my Gran is barefoot and somewhere ahead of me. There are hundreds of unfamiliar people making the same journey. I keep my eyes focused on my Gran, to check whether she is ok. She reached the top of the mountain before I do, and needs to cross a bridge to get across to other mountain. I watch as she gets halfway, and then turns back, and finally rush up to help her. I hold her hand and walk her across a rickety old bridge, while she tells me how special I am... but I don't go across. I leave her, and eventually make my way back... What does this mean??? It's one of those dreams that will stay with me forever, every detail is so clear.

Hi Laura, I am so sorry to hear of your loss, its a terrible thing to lose close members of your family. To lose three members in such a relatively close period of time, is almost unbearable. I lost my Mother, my much loved Uncle and his wife my Mum's sister all within a two year period. My Mum and Uncle within 3 days of each other. We were a close knit family and a small one, so it was a devastating blow. I will try and help you as much as I can with your dream. Obviously there is dream symbology there, but I feel, that the answers you are craving, are there in your dream. You are definitely in the right place though Laura, for help, advice and comfort. This site is amazing, not only because, its a spiritual group, there are many here, searchers asking questions just like you. Some of us have psychic and mediumistic gifts, some are healers, but for this site, it is not the glorification of these gifts, our focus and goal is to grow spiritually. Many, in the same position as you. So you have been guided here to this site for a very good reason. Your family is obviously, looking out for you, from the other side Now for your dream:- You dream of your Grandmother, in this case, I feel it is your grandmother's spirit, coming to you in your dream. When we are asleep, and deeply relaxed, it is a way that our loved ones have of communicating with us. Our level of unconsciousness allows them access to us, in a way that would be much harder in our waking moments. Also, our grieving, puts a barrier that they find difficult to get through. I found this difficult to deal with because, I so badly wanted to communicate, I couldn't help my grief!! The grandmother figure in a women's dream, usually represents, the wise old women, or her wiser higher self. The wise voice within. In your dream, you are climbing a very steep flight of steps, going up a mountain path. Climbing up wards, you are ascending; Ascending a mountain is indicates to need to scale emotional heights to attain spiritual growth, this could be seen as an obstacle, or simply challenges to be overcome. But it is also indicative of your highest aims. I feel this is of a spiritual nature, maybe indicating your spiritual growth. Their are hundred of people making the same journey, you may be astral traveling and you see other souls like yourself making this journey. I feel it is a symbolic journey to the other side. You are there helping your Grandmother, as you did in life, Bridges, usually allow the dreamer a clearer view of what is ahead and represents communication. They may also symbolize a transition as you leave one phase of your life, to begin another. They can also symbolize going from one place to another, this is from here to the other side, the side of spirit. Your Grandmother, is already on the bridge, crossing from this world to the other, and she gets half way, as in life, if you felt she needed you, you would go to her aide. This I feel was her way, of meeting you in your dream, to tell you just how special you are to her. You cannot follow her Laura, as she is going somewhere you cannot follow. But there is always a way, of meeting us half way!! This was her way of letting you know that she was ok. I believe as your emotions settle, having recently lost your brother, you must be feeling completely lost and your emotions are all over the place. I feel sure, you will dream of her again, or if not her, your Mum and your brother. It has been a terrible time for you, but often bereavement triggers off huge spiritual development. It is said, it is only when we are in the dark, that we reach out for the light. It's there, just reach out for it. I hope I have been able to help a little, take from this interpretation, only that which resonates with you. Love and Light Kaz

Hi Kathy,
Thank you so much. I cried my eyes out while I read through your analysis of my dream. Somehow, it all makes sense. And, at the end of the day, it gives me great comfort knowing that the souls of my loved ones have found peace. I can imagine how it felt for you to have lost your loved ones in such a short space of time, I am sorry to hear that. Through corresponding with you, I have found that you ooze such immense strength.
And, like you said, it takes a dark moment in our lives to awaken spiritually. When my Mom died 4 years ago, everything changed. My spiritual eyes were opened somehow and I started looking at life differently. My Gran died a year ago, and then my brother.
I have always felt the need to take care of people, kind'a like a "mother-hen". My brother was a year younger than I am, but I always felt the need to mother him. When he took his own life, I felt as if I had failed as a parent. Yet, he had a life of his own and left behind a wife with two adorable little kids. We also were a small family. They were all I had.
Everything about my dream makes sense. It's all so true, and somehow I had a little idea of what my Gran was trying to tell me in my dream. I keep dreaming of them, and talking to them whenever I feel the need to. I know that I found this site for a reason, and I thank God for sending people like you into my life.
Lots love Laura

Dear Laura, Its ok, I know who you mean't..lol I am so pleased that the dream interpretation has brought you some comfort. Simply also knowing that you are not alone, all the questions, you have whirling around in your head, are the same ones all of us have asked at one time or another. If there is anything you want or need, you only have to ask, there are plenty of great people on here that will do all they can to answer. Go to the chat room, you will meet some lovely like minded people. Give them all my love as I'm not in there at the moment, as I hurt my arms and wrist the other day. Its getting much better, so hopefully, by tomorrow, I'll be joining you there.. If it helps talk to them, your loved ones in spirit, they can hear I'm sure of it. I found when I was low, something would come over me, and I'd sense one of them was near me. I would still feel sad, but a sense of peace would come, and the awful yearning would pass over. Love and light Kaz
