The most common dreams about death are usually related to the death of a son or daughter , a brother or sister, our parents, your father, your mother, your romantic partner, uncles, grandparents, nephews, cousins, friends or even work colleagues that you greatly appreciate.
It's also possible that the family member died some time ago , and fate is bringing them back to you "alive" in your dream so you can talk to them a little longer.
