In other cases, a wake in a dream predicts the end of a relationship. The Muslim dream book writes that you may lose a loved one forever or unexpectedly restore a relationship with him.
Miller's book predicts a pleasant memory, a meeting. Vanga writes that this dream comes with news. Sometimes you dream about a wake in your hand. You may be invited to visit or to a restaurant to remember a loved one. And here is how the modern dream book interprets funerals most often and in different circumstances.
When interpreting, pay attention to the following points: whether a living or dead person was commemorated, whether there is really going to be a commemoration or not, and what was remembered most of all. This is how modern books interpret a dream in which you will dream of the commemoration of a deceased person or the funeral of a living person.
Why did you dream about the wake - Miller’s interpretation
According to one of the most popular dream books - Miller's dream book - the funeral of a stranger or friend foreshadows problems in communicating with loved ones and acquaintances, quarrels, and conflicts at work. However, on the other hand, a memorial for a loved one can promise family well-being. You should also take into account the weather during the dreamed funeral meal: sunny weather promises success and a surge of strength, while a cloudy day foreshadows sad news, trouble or a quarrel.
If the dreamer dreamed of his own wake, then unexpected changes lie ahead, both for the better and for the worse. The more vivid and colorful the dream was (even if it was emotionally difficult), the more decisive the changes will be. If at a funeral in a dream the relatives praised the dreamer, then he will face changes for the better, which will involve great difficulty.

Whose wake
If the “night” wake was organized in honor of the dreamer himself, it means that unexpected changes will soon burst into his life. Did the vision give you a pleasant feeling? The sleeper is awaiting a promotion at work, news of the imminent birth of an heir, or marriage. A wake at which the guests had fun promises the dreamer a stable financial situation and a long life. If the dream has left a negative aftertaste, it’s time to prepare for a serious loss and loss of social status.

Actions of the dreamer and other dream characters

Cemetery and funeral
The dream means deep regrets and tears. The dream book writes that commemorating a relative or friend in a cemetery means crying and grief. Sometimes this is a sign that you will miss his attention and love.
When a dead person comes to life, it means that you will soon meet someone similar to him. If he goes to the grave again, a person with the same name, position, or his relative will die. The dream book indicates that you may find out news about the deceased or meet a person similar to him.
Preparing food for remembrance means news in the house. At times, a dream warns you of making a decision that you will regret. To see someone else's house in which food is being prepared for remembrance - to the deceased. But for some people, the dream prophesies an invitation to a wedding.
Seeing a wake in a restaurant and meeting a relative or friend there is a sign of change. Every now and then the dream hints at separation.

Question and answer
Why are only four interpretations of sleep given, since there are many more dream books?
Indeed, one can find a great variety of interpretations, often contradicting each other. Therefore, those directions that represent the leading approaches to understanding dreams are considered - psychoanalytic, practical, visionary and folk.
How can a dream with a wake be psychologically explained?
In general, such a dream can be caused by more or less conscious reflections about successes, achievements, and results. This is a search for an answer to the question: how will they remember me? What will they say about me?
The dream is repeated with a cheerful wake for deceased relatives, some of whom have passed away recently. What does it mean?
In such cases, folk tradition advises somehow remembering deceased relatives in reality, lighting a candle in the church, writing a note about their repose.
Impressions after a funeral or memorial
Usually the dream book does not interpret such dreams, since they are caused by emotions.
Especially if you imagine what actually happened. As a rule, unmemorable stories do not foretell changes in your life, but if something unusual happens, look at the dream book. Seeing dishes on the table in a dream means new experiences. Focus your attention on what you are eating there. The food that you actually had at the holiday means the experience if you don’t remember it. Poor quality products predict illness and trouble.
If the dinner contained worms, focus on who exactly ate it. Especially if it contained raw meat or fish. This dream may mean the death or illness of this person. If you were offered such a dish and you refused it, it means that the danger has passed you.
Seeing something unusual at a recent wake is news. Such a dream should be interpreted symbolically. If a deceased person comes to life and starts drinking, getting drunk and singing songs, expect trouble with his relatives.
This dream predicts a family scandal and troubles. Perhaps a quarrel will occur under the influence of alcohol. The dead man is rowdy - to troubles with relatives. If he begins to put food on plates, beware of poisoning or a contagious disease. But sometimes a dream can mean that his soul is being commemorated. Especially if the food was delicious.
Commemorating a recently deceased person in a temple means that the dreamer will come to terms with the loss. Seeing the name of a familiar person on a note means his imminent death. But in some cases, the dream book writes that you will stop communicating with him.
If you remembered your deceased grandfather, then soon you will need the advice of a wise person. Praying in church at the service of the deceased means coming to terms with loss.
If you place food on the funeral table, interpret it by name. In this situation they mean sacrifice or compensation for loss. The interpretation of such a dream is also symbolic. Seeing in a dream the funeral of a recently deceased person, and then sitting with his relatives at the farewell table means an important conversation.
Eating food means sharing the inheritance. Sometimes taking a piece from a table means receiving something from a deceased person.
