how can i tell????

[Rodentmouse7]

hi, ive been having a series of dreams about my brother coming to harm.

this could either mean my brother symbolises an aspect of my own pain, or it could be a premonition type dream where sometime in future, my brother will come to harm???

how can i tell the difference?

how does one distinguish normal dreams from prophetic dreams?
thanks

I think through profound feeling...that there is danger.
A year before my uncle/godfather passed away, I dreamed he became very sick and died, but then his spirit visited me. I awoke unnerved and frightened for him. Everything that occurred in the dream has since happened, and he does visit me occasionally from the other side. I know it is him, his unmistakable sense of humor, he always brings with him fresh jokes.
I grew up very close to him, he was a second father to me.

I'm in complete agreeness with Astir here. "through profound feeling".
