1. Emotional Memories and Missing: Dreaming of a deceased father may represent your deep longing and memories for him, especially when you have recently encountered something that reminds you of him or is emotionally moved.
2. Unresolved emotions or problems: This dream may also imply some unresolved wishes, unresolved emotional issues, or unexpressed gratitude between you and your father, and your subconscious is seeking an emotional release or solution through the dream.
3. Guidance for self growth: Fathers often symbolize authority, power, and wisdom in their dreams. Dreaming of a deceased father may be a reminder that even though he is not by your side, his spirit, teachings, or values are still influencing you, guiding you to make the right decisions in life and continue moving forward. At the same time, this may also symbolize that you are gradually maturing and learning to independently face the challenges in life.
