BURYING SOMETHING

Dream Meaning

The act of burial in a dream is one of the psyche's most deliberate gestures — both a farewell and a beginning. Whatever is being interred carries the weight of something the dreamer is consciously or unconsciously trying to put to rest: a grievance, a memory, a version of themselves, a relationship that has concluded.

Unlike forgetting, burying involves intention — you are not simply losing something, you are placing it where it can no longer dominate the surface of your life. Pay close attention to what is in the box, the grave, or the hole: the object or person being buried often reveals precisely what you are most ready — or most desperate — to release.
