Death (Own)
Dreaming of your own death is rarely a premonition — it almost always symbolizes the end of something in your waking life: a relationship, career phase, belief system, or identity. These dreams are actually among the most positive symbols in dream analysis, representing major transformation and the possibility of rebirth into a new phase of life.
Purple
Purple combines the stability of blue with the energy of red, representing spirituality, royalty, wisdom, and mystical transformation. In dreams, purple often appears during spiritual growth or when higher consciousness is being accessed. Purple clothing may represent spiritual authority. A purple sky or environment suggests a dreamscape operating at a higher vibrational level than ordinary reality.
