Old acquaintances ask me how my mom is doing . In my dream, she died a couple of weeks ago. So did J.S. Bach. I tell them that she probably is relieved to be rid of her physical ailments. I laugh and say that she died in good company (Bach)
This dream may have several interpretations, as dream symbolism is subjective. However, one possible interpretation could be as follows:
The old acquaintances asking about your mom symbolize connections from your past. They could represent people or aspects of your life that you have not been in contact with for a while. Their inquiry about your mom's wellbeing suggests that these old connections are reaching out to you, seeking to reconnect or understand how you have been.
The deaths of both your mom and J.S. Bach in the dream could symbolize a sense of loss or transition. It's possible that you are experiencing changes or endings in your life, and these figures represent a passing of important influences or relationships. Their deaths may also symbolize the release of physical or emotional burdens.
Your response in the dream, saying that your mom is relieved to be free from her physical ailments and that she died in good company (referring to Bach), suggests a sense of acceptance and finding solace in the circumstances. It indicates that you are coping with the loss by embracing the positive aspects rather than dwelling solely on the sadness.
Overall, this dream may be reflecting your process of reconciling with endings or changes in your life. It could be a sign of your ability to find comfort and make light of difficult situations, even when dealing with loss.
