You would have often heard people sharing that “ Oh! I had a dream of someone trying to kill me” or you had that scary dream.
In this article, we would try to decode the reason behind such dreams from a psychological perspective
If you see someone trying to kill you in your dream, it could mean something about your real-life situation.
“Dreaming about someone trying to kill you” might also have something to do with your anxiety or stress. This stress or anxiety could be caused by fears, judgments, being in charge, or your actions.
To figure out what your dream means, you need to remember what happened in it
Did a “Stranger” try to kill you in your dream
If the killer in your dream is someone you don’t know, it may be a sign of your fear. The dream could also be a message from your subconscious mind about a situation or problem you may face shortly. Look carefully: Did you run away from the killer, or did someone else save you in the dream?
If yes, it’s a good sign that you’ll be able to solve your problems, no matter how hard or dangerous they might be. But if you don’t, keep this warning in mind and be careful about everything you do or decide when you’re awake. Conflicts are problems that happen by accident and are often started by something we say or do.
Did a “Friend/Acquaintance” try to kill you in your dream
On the other hand, if the killer in your dream is a friend, relative, co-worker, or someone else you know, you need to figure out why and what the dream means. Is there anything unresolved between you and him/her? Have you ever hurt them or made them feel weak? This is especially important if you subconsciously admit it but don’t show it on the surface. The only way out is to try to make peace with the problem by talking about it, apologizing, or doing anything else that can help you get over your guilt.
Such a dream could also mean that you don’t trust or know for sure what that person is trying to do.
[BONUS] What does it mean if you dream that someone wants to kill you and someone else helps you get away?
If you dreamed that someone was helping you get away, that’s a good sign. Again, if we ignore the part about who you are and just look at your mental state, being able to escape in your dream is a good sign. It means that you have the inner strength to get over your fears, deal with problems, or bring back a lost or fading part of your personality.
