      Dream one year exact from death date

      I had a very vivid, but odd dream about a month ago and just decided to lookup webpages about dreams. So here is some background on me before I tell about my dream. I have had a ton of experience with deja vu in my life. It comes and I and I feel like a have been in that exact moment before in life. When I have this happen I feel it is a warning against something about to happen, never as a premenission of something good occuring. I suppose I just wanted to mention that b/c it seems almost impossible to me that you can have already been in time before, I've read this happens to people and I don't have some gift, but thougth I would through it out there. A little background into an event that happens once a year with my father and all his brother's(my uncles) They all get together once a year to go to an event called the Stag. Which is basically just a day for the guys with beer drinking, horse shoes, gambling, etc...with about 1k people attending. My father is the oldest of the boys(5 of them) and had just lost his 1st brother my uncle a year before. So I am having this dream and we are all sitting at the picnic table at the Stag, and everyone is talking having a good time etc and my uncle that had passed away was there with us. I thought it was very odd, but just continued along with the day. In my dream I thought maybe I was just imagining him being there, so finally I got up and pulled my dad to the side and said do you see uncle .....here. He didn't say anything to me, but just looked at me without saying a word I got the message from him that he knew he was there and I could also tell the rest of my uncles around the table knew as well. In my dream this wasn't like he was there in spirit, but physically sitting there with all of us. I began to just think to myself in this dream this is not possible and they are all just sitting here like this is no big deal at all. It was finally time to leave, I have no idea how i was traveling to my next destination, but I wanted some answers on how this is possible. I remember arriving at a church that looked like it was from the mid evil times, construtcted out of rock and had those huge woodend doors with the black wrot iron cladding and door handles. I walked up to the church and didn't have to knock on the door or anything, and there was this gigantic priest staning in the doorway, I'm am about 6'5 by the way and this priest seemed 8 or 9 feet tall. I asked him how it was possible that my uncle was there sitting with us, and kept telling him he was dead but no one cared or found it odd he was there. I can't remember if I ever got an answer from him or not. This next part happens outside of my dream fully awake and concious. I came home from work the day after my dream, and my wife wanted me to call my aunt who is my father's sister and sister to my deceased uncle to ask her about coming over that weekend. So I went about talking to her to see if she wanted to come over for dinner one night, not thinking at all about the dream I had early, and I think it had totally gone out of my mind all together and I had forgot about it, when she said to me today is a year from when uncle .....died. Then boom, the dream came back to me, I told her about the dream I had. I had no idea it was the date he had passed on the year before. That freaked me out when she told me that. Her response to me was that he was just saying hi or something. Anyway don't know if anyone will have an insight on my dream, the dream itself didn't bother me as i always have had odd dreams like this, it wasn't until my aunt told me that day of my dream was to the date a year after his death I felt something was up with the dream i had had. If you have any ideas or thoughts about this dream or how I was able to have it with or precise timing let me know.

      When your not a noob anymore try posting in the beyond dreaming forum.
      Also if you have any questions or want to talk you can PM me.

      One theory I have about this stuff is that the subconscious mind picks up on things you (the conscious mind) doesn't so maybe it came up in a dream when your mind noticed that it was the one year anniversary of your uncle's death.
      "For a long time it gave me nightmares, having to witness an injustice like that. It was a constant reminder of how unfair this world can be, I can still hear them taunting him. 'Silly Rabbit, Trix are for kids!'... How come they just couldn't give him some cereal?"

      BINGO! I agree! In fact, I was unexpectedly visited by my deceased stepfather in a lucid dream and he told that he would have been "42" if he was alive. When I woke up I rund my mother to ask her how old he would have been. She confirmed to my surprise that he would have in fact been 42.

      But then I remembered that a few years back I had been told his date of birth but never memorised it. What I thought didn't register actually registered and must've surfaced in a dream a few days after his birthday. I knew it had been his birthday recently but didn't know how old he would have been.

      @ Newbie513:

      In your case, the fact that you had the dream exactly a year after your uncle's death is either an interesting coincidence or an example of how accurate our subconscious mind calendars can be! Our minds are truly awesome.

      I can see how it is comforting for your aunt to think that it was really your uncle in your dream just saying hi...
