Duke Zhou: I dreamed that the family of the deceased was chasing me.

As you said, this kind of dream can generally be understood as a dream of being chased. Have you ever had a dream that you want to hide when being chased by the family of the deceased, but you will be found no matter where you hide, no matter how tightly the door is closed. Wherever you go, the pursuer will follow you a few steps. At this time, the person or animal chasing you may be a part of yourself, your conscience, your values, your own memories, worries and pains. Because this suitor is actually in your own heart, of course you can't hide it so that he can't find you, because you can't fool yourself. In a dream, your worries, memories and pains are all reflected through something in the dream. By the way, should we follow our inner conscience? Not really, because for the average person, the so-called conscience is only influenced by childhood education and family, which may not be correct. For example, in the old society, a person might think that a widow's remarriage is shameful, immoral and against her conscience, and it is nothing more than a moral problem. Through dreams, we can know what is chasing us in our hearts, and then analyze in detail what we should do. Obey the pursuer, defeat it or persuade it. Because instinct is an impulse that does not consider social norms and ethics, it is often manifested as sexual impulse and attack impulse, so it inevitably conflicts with human self. The end of the chased dream often symbolizes the dreamer's strategy to solve this conflict. Generally speaking, the pursued dream has several endings: (1) The pursued person (often the dreamer himself) is bitten or killed; (two) forced to play dead or hide, to avoid the sight of wild animals or bad people; (3) The pursued person fights head-on with wild animals or bad guys. The ending (1) symbolizes that the dreamer is too depressed about his instinct at ordinary times, so that after being depressed to a certain intensity, he begins to be strongly resisted or retaliated by his instinct. The fiercer the pursuer in the dream, the greater the intensity of the dreamer's instinctive repression. The ending (2) symbolizes that dreamers often use self-deception in their daily lives. Turn a blind eye and release some instinctive impulses. That is to add some reasonable camouflage to instinctive impulse, so that self does not feel anxious. Such dreamers are generally weak in character. The ending (3) symbolizes that the dreamer continues to suppress his instinct in daily life. Or the dreamer has long suppressed his instinct, and the dreamer himself has become a rational machine. The strategies represented by the above three endings are not the correct attitude towards instinct. The correct attitude towards instinct should be like Dayu's water control. It is not advisable to let it flood, but blindly suppressing your instinct will inevitably bring future troubles, and "grooming" is relatively desirable. Shake hands with the beast or bad guy in your dream, which is a kind of guidance. Instinct, if guided, is the continuous source of vitality and vigor, and if suppressed, hindered and eventually flooded, it will become destructive. If the repression is excessive, the vitality and vigor will be exhausted. In addition, it is also harmful to release some self-deception like the ending (2), because if so, people's cognition of the environment will be distorted, and people are actually living with their eyes half open. Dream is a strange phenomenon, and the experience of dreaming is also owned by people. Psychological explanation of dreams: Dreams are spontaneous psychological activities at a certain stage of human consciousness during sleep. In this kind of psychological activity, the whole process of individual physical and mental changes is called dreaming. In a typical night sleep, the average person's first dream appears about 90 minutes after falling asleep. The duration of the dream is about 5- 15 minutes (average 10 minutes). During the whole night's sleep time, dreams appear in cycles at all stages of sleep, with about 4-6 dreams a night. Total * * * about 1-2 hours of sleep time, is in a dream. Dreams are just dreams, just dreams. The above is for reference only. I hope it helps you. Good luck.
