Clock
Time anxiety, deadlines, life passage
Funeral
Closure, mourning, transition
Clock
Clocks represent your relationship with time — the most universal human concern. A clock ticking loudly suggests time pressure and deadlines. A stopped clock may indicate feeling that time has stopped or that you're wasting time. Clock hands spinning rapidly reflect the feeling that time is moving too fast. The specific time shown on a clock may carry personal significance.
Funeral
Funeral dreams represent the need for closure, the process of mourning, and formal acknowledgment of endings. They can indicate that you need to 'put to rest' some issue, relationship, or phase of life. These dreams often appear after or during major life transitions.
