I've heard that dreams have reasons, are formed in the deepest parts of your subconscious and are influenced by events that happen in you everyday life.
Keeping that in mind, I've had dreams specific to my mother over the last couple of months that seemed more "real" than anything I have ever experienced in my life. Conversations that had closure, comments specific to things that only could come from her and all of the dreams ended with a goodbye as opposed
to the alarm waking me up or the dog barking.....weird shit if you ask me. I was EXTREMELY close to my mom (you've heard the stories...single mom,
one kid blah, blah, blah,) so I know she influenced my entire make-up....in essence I feel as though I am an extension of her, but this....this is just freaking me out!
I guess where I'm going with this covers multiple directions. Do you believe that the dead influence your life after the fact and are dreams more than "wind-down" time from a hectic schedule or is there actually something to what†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¾¢‚¬Å¡‚¢s going on in the melon?

There are a lot of theories about the dream purpose if there has to be one.
I don't find weird nor worth to worry those dreams you are having, of course if they extend in a way they block your normal everyday life you should then do something.
As you were so close to your mom you've gained a lot of knowledge of her in your subconcious that you can have the sensation that she's actually communicating something to you, far from trying to dissmiss any belief, i think that's the only chance to beat mortality to remain live in others hearts and it's good to have a person that you love so "into" yourself.

I don't feel anyone ever really dies...Things change shape, and form, and become a part of something else...That is the way of the universe, and it would be unwise to bet against that...Boiled water ceases to be water, but to say that it doesn't exist is foolish...
Naturally, when our loved ones die, we feel a strong attachment to them...And such things may be common Rim, and I'm not trying to make light of your situation...But I also believe that those that transpire have their own right to continue to exist, and be a part of this world...
I believe dreams offer us a way to extend into that other realm, where the value placed on reason and the physical limitations is not allowed...I have had dreams come true right before my eyes, I have told people things would happen, and then watch their 'WTF" face when it came true...I am no psychic friend, I just believe in that energy....I don't believe everything that I know, and everything that I can do, is necessarily my own doing...
I believe dreams are real, and in fact, I don't call them dreams at all...You may be doing something special RIM, and that's getting to obtain that closure you need, and that assurance...And regardless of what anyone here may think, it is your right to have peace of mind, regardless of how you obtain it...

it is simple, when you consider it.
When you are sleeping your brain is producing a drug called serotonin, which enables you to dream. This drug is an antidepressant and a neurotransmitter. When you sleep, your brain is doing maintenance on itself, and this enables a higher reception to Astral beings. And by Astral beings, I mean many things, all of which assume a form that has an established meaning which is the basis for the image it takes.
I am at work, and can not work on this right now, but I will tell you Wednesday night is specific to allowing communication with one's ancestors, as it is the symbolic "first Day" of creation - Rosh hashanna; called Rosh Shana by the Canaanites, "Head of the Year.". this day, which symbolizes the beginning of the dark time of the year is a two day period, where by the wisdom of the ancients and ancestors can b recieved to utilize in your life. This was very common for ages, even by the Jews, but the anti-Jewish propoganda in early Christianity denounced this practice.
The dead do not survive without huge amounts of work. the human has many "souls" one of which offers itself of use to their descendants or a sacred priesthood they attended. This called the Ka, can be sustained through wine and bread and is the basis of the holy communion. By "offering" one's ancestors this sustenance they will attend to you in spiritual affairs. There are significant practices where a spirit learns to sustain itself - but they are exhaustive an must be lerned when you have a ren (a living name, which passes from you as you die).
What most think of as the soul is the part called the Ba, which is the undying light inseparable from God.
The ka is kept alive by "Opening the Mouth" - which is kind of distrubing, but the felling subsides.
Take some wheat or some grain, honey, leavings of wine (the stuff that congeals in the bottom of a small bit of wine) and mix them together. cook this in an oven and make a small round cake. Don't worry too much about a recipe.
Get a bottle of wine, red,.. any merlot is good in a pinch.
Bring a picture of your mom, a small dish of water, your cake, and a small glass of wine to a table.
(I also bring roses and jasmine, as offerings of flowers. and red sandalwood, as a precious spice)
Wash your face and your hands,.. let your fears, troubles and worries be washed away.
Light some Jerusalem Incense and Breathe deeply the incense filling you with conviction and divine light; keeping all the phantoms of darkness and confusion.
(Frankencense and Myrrh called Jerusalem Incense - subfumigates to protect against all unwanted spirits.)
you are now ready. Stare at the picture of your mom, calling forth her name silently... allow her to come through the picture, and with you INTO you (welcome her in the name of the Messiach, whom you may call jesus) fo the purpose of being fed that she may be sustained in this repose.
Feel the blood of yor mother that pumps in yor veins, connect deeply to her. PHYSICALLY, you may hear her., or see her. the key is to understanding that yo are whom your mother has BECOME. When that sinks in... for REAL.
Say "_____, My Mother, My Heart - the joy of the fruits of Labour, the sustenance of endurance which is consumed to walk among the living, in the light of the Loving God, whose gifts even endure when the veil of Life has fallen from our eyes, strengthening us with Force and Vigour. This is my offering unto you,______, who hath given me Life."
(hold the cake at eye level, and turn completely around slowly,.. when you come back to your position - eat the cake)
Say "_____, My Mother, My Heart - the blood of the earth which pours from your veins to mine, even as this wine which is all Understanding of This world or any other which I may walk, in the light of the Loving God, whose gifts even endure when the veil of Life has fallen from our eyes, preserving us with Wisdom and Beauty. This i my offering unto you, ____, who hath given me life."
(hold the wine at eye level, and turn completely around slowly,.. when you come back to your position - drink the wine)
meditate and open up to letting her be enfused with the sacrament... and sit with her a spell. It could be she will have much to say when you "open the mouth" and the advise can be valuable. the knowledge is precious, regardless. (during this meditation I put red sandalwood on the charcoal - this is common in china... and was common in many ancient countries.)
Bid your mother depart, thank her for her attendance,.. and when she is gone, smell the incense, breathe deeply and allow your personal resolve to return, and wask yor hands and face as you rid yourself of all outside influence.
(optional: yo can add as many references to jesus or any other as you like,.. as this is not religious specific and variations occur throughout all humanity.)
My family has perpetuated this for centuries, and you can adapt it for any number of ancestors, all of whom have given you life. even the unknown (though that is best done with caution, to avoid unwanted spirits - I advise agaist this until you got street cred in the spirit world)
