He was my fathers buddy and he had a name for him. It was his pet.
I find this extremely strange that my fathers Rooster had died the very same day as him. Dunno.
Has anyone else had dreams like this before? Of a loved one or pet.
I would like to hear other peoples dreams like this. Am I the only one??
Yes and no. I've had dreams in which I've experienced the level of emotion you describe, that completely aching empty feeling that makes you feel like you're going to suffocate on your own grief. They are always about those very close to me - my wife, my daughters, parents, etc.
Unlike yours, however, I don't have these dreams after they die, I have them before (as of today, none of those I've had those dreams about have died). I believe these dreams to be spiritual in nature, though not from a precognitive sense. To me, they are my Spirit Guides letting me know the nature of the relationship I have with that person and what that person means to me in my life.
What you are experiencing are not truly Psychopompic, however, as you are not actively engaged in helping them cross over. In each of these cases, I believe you were being told "Good bye" by them and shown that even though their physical bodies have died, they continue to go on, just in a way that you can't relate to them right now (thus the barriers to you joining them).
As for the rooster dying the same day as your father, it's uncommon but not unheard of, even for humans. When someone we have a very deep and special spiritual connection to dies, a part of us goes into the spirit world along with them. Sometimes, we can't recover from that soul loss. If the soul loss is great enough, the remainder simply follows along.
This happened with my Stepfather. His mother and he had a very close bond. When she died, he was devestated. He never really recovered. He died three months later - to the day. It was not a suicide, but completely an accident compounded by a previously undiagnosed medical condition.
Your dreams are nothing to worry about or to feel badly about. You suffered soul loss when they died. Your grief is natural and acceptable. Honor the emotion, and then let it go.
If you can't let it go, then seek the help of a trained Spiritualist or professional Psychiatric Counselor. Either one can help you regain the soul you lost in your loved ones' deaths.
Peace,
