"How Do I Know If I've Been Visited By a Loved One in a Dream?"

Mediumship and Dreams

Have you ever wondered if a dream you had about a loved one who crossed over was actually a visitation from their spirit? There are many ways that we can receive messages from those who are on the other side of the world or even on the Other Side. I’ll be writing more about stories and guidelines for becoming aware of messages from those you care about that can show up while you are awake. In this article, I will focus on how to recognise if you have been visited in your dreams.

Sometimes you will be able to validate details from a dream about a loved one who has crossed over by recording the dream in your journal, describing the details of and perhaps even making sketches of what you dreamt. Focus on the information in your dream that you couldn’t possibly have known before.

If the loved one in your dream has presented you with a message that goes beyond what they would have known about you or what you could possibly know about them or the message as of now, you can do some research into the validity of what they communicated by exploring content online, in books, on genealogical websites, in archives, or perhaps by asking friends or family who would have known them when they were living. If the details of your dream were accurate, at least in some ways, that is one sign that you were receiving a meaningful message that is grounded in material reality, despite the current immaterial state of the one who visited you. They offered you an insight into something you hadn’t known about, yet their heightened, expanded awareness was able to offer that information to you.

If the one who crossed over hasn’t visited you in dreams, this does not mean that they aren’t thinking of you. In fact, the bond could be so strong, especially soon after someone’s passing, that visiting might be emotionally intense for both of you. This can be a loving form of protection until you are both ready to connect in this way. The visits happen when we are psychologically and spiritually ready, and the same goes for those who have crossed over and are transitioning to another state of consciousness.

This article includes a “Was I Visited in My Dreams?” quiz that you can take to find out if your dream was imagination or a visitation.
