What does it mean when you dream you give a fish to a dead relative?

Answer 1

This dream might have several different interpretations depending on the dreamer's culture and personal beliefs. Fish might represent food or "life," suggesting longing and the wish that the deceased were still alive. Alternatively, the fish could refer to the Christian ICHTHUS symbol, representing Christ, and the hope that the deceased has attained salvation through Christ.

Fish

To see live fish in a dream is very much good luck unless the fish was carp, in which case it is a warning against subjecting yourself by your actions to criticism. A fish swimming in clear water is an omen that you will acquire personal wealth and power. but to see a dead fish as in a market is an omen of disappointment. Cooking and eating fish, except carp, indicates your present endeavors will meet with success.

Deceased (dreaming about)

If you should dream of a deceased person and this person speaks only to you, pay close attention to what the spirit is telling you as it could be very important to you. To dream of seeing a deceased person is normally a dream of warning, and it tells you that the influences around you at this time does not bode well for your affairs, and you should not enter into any binding contracts or verbal agreements until this phase passes.

Answer 3

First, let's consider the symbolism here. For some people, the term "fish food" is what they apply to deceased people. A school of fish can also be symbolic of a multitude, whether it is people or whatever. The bottom of the ocean is sometimes known as "Hell," "the grave," or "the abyss." Plus, in terms of ornamental fish, cleaning out the dead ones is quite an inconvenience.

So possibly, you may be dreaming in terms of the above metaphors. Your loved one has passed on to the other side along with all the others throughout history.
