According to dream interpretation, when our ancestors or departed relatives appear in our dreams, it's not just a coincidence. It's considered a connection between our subconscious mind and the afterlife. These dreams warn us about future events or indicate happiness and prosperity. Let's explore the meanings of different dreams involving ancestors:

1. Ancestors appearing smiling

If your ancestors appear happy and smiling in your dream, it's a very auspicious sign. It means they are satisfied with you and your family's actions. Such a dream brings peace and harmony to the home, and stalled tasks begin to be completed. It symbolizes their blessings.

2. Ancestors appearing angry

If your ancestors appear angry or upset in your dream, it's a warning. According to dream interpretation, this could be a sign of 'Pitra Dosha' (ancestral curse). It means you may not be respecting their wishes or there has been a lapse in the charitable acts performed in their name. In such a case, you should pray for the peace of their souls.

3. Asking for something or trying to communicate

Often, people see their ancestors asking for something or silently gesturing in their dreams. This means they have an unfulfilled wish. They want you to perform rituals like Tarpan (offering water to ancestors), Pind-dan (offering food to ancestors), or feed a poor person in their name. When their souls are satisfied, they remove obstacles from your life.

4. Deceased parents appearing

The appearance of deceased parents in a dream is considered most sacred. It's a sign that you are about to achieve great success in your career or personal life. They appear in your dreams to provide a sense of security and guide you on the right path.

5. The same ancestor appearing repeatedly

If the same ancestor keeps appearing in your dreams, don't ignore it. It's a sign that they want to protect you from an impending major crisis or accident. In such times, you should be cautious in your decisions. What to do when ancestors appear in a dream?

Give charity: Donate food or clothing of their liking to someone in need.

Light a lamp: Light a lamp in the south direction of your home (which is considered the direction of ancestors) in the evening.

Perform Shraddha and Tarpana: Offer water in their name during Amavasya or Pitru Paksha and pray for the peace of their soul.
