Spirit Dream Interpretation: Insights from 5 Unique Sources

Spirits are commonplace in the religions and folklores of the world, coming in a multitude of shapes and forms, such as fairies, elves, demons and angels. The term is often used to describe all non-physical entities, including ghosts, but a spirit is not strictly speaking the same as a ghost, even though the distinction between the two is sometimes vague. In some cultures, they are also thought to personify characteristics and forces of nature, which are then worshipped by proxy. They are believed to exist in an invisible realm, but can be seen by clairvoyant seers. They are also thought to intervene at times in the affairs of humanity, for better or for worse.

In dreams, spirits represents feelings or intuition about the dead or death, and their appearance can help you come to terms with these. Whether you think they are actual spirits or not will depend on your own belief system. Typically, spirits in dreams are a comforting presence to help you through various times of transition.
