To dream of a deceased friend may reflect the most apparent quality about them that stands out the most in yourself.

Alternatively, dreaming of a dead friend may represent something good in your life that was lost and is now returning.

To dream of an ex-friend may represent a quality in yourself based on your most honest feelings about them when they were still a significant part of your life. Consider what emotions or memories are most associated with this ex-friend�whether positive or negative�and how these could be influencing your current feelings or situation. It could reflect issues of betrayal, loss, or unresolved emotions that are still affecting you. Lingering feelings of bitterness, disappointment, or being misled. A part of your life that you have outgrown or a reminder of a past conflict that still impacts your current emotional landscape. Lingering anger or sadness about the loss of the friendship. Guilt, regret, or nostalgia for the time spent together. Fear of repeating the same mistakes in current relationships or friendships.

Example: A man dreamed of walking beside a friend he had never seen before in real life who helped him walk up to a ledge and fly in the air at the last minute.

Matthew Perry

To dream of Matthew Perry (TV Show Friends) represents an aspect of your personality that is more incredible than other people (or gets more attention) for being laughable (or not being taken seriously) for being a nicer person, that's intelligent about never being in trouble, while thinking it isn't safe to embarrass anyone too seriously.

Dealing with oblivious or self-unaware individuals who don't take you seriously. Navigating a social situation where someone refuses to take you seriously when you point out their ridiculous actions or lack of awareness regarding their embarrassing behavior.

Behavior that doesn't say anything too serious to embarrass someone for their ridiculous behavior because it probably won't work or will cause a fight. Behavior gets lots of attention from other people while being laughable for why being a "nice guy" who's safer and more intelligent than someone else never matters. You may feel that you are laughable for being a good person while being careful not to offend others too much.

Negatively, a dream featuring Matthew Perry could represent behavior that wastes its time safely not hurting someone's feelings about a problem to the point of being laughable for being nice. Not being as serious as you need to be respected to make someone feel like you "mean it." A tendency to avoid saying anything too serious as a defense mechanism to avoid confronting deeper problems. Respecting yourself by not saying anything too serious to a person who is behaving ridiculously because you fear it might make a stupid situation worse. Feeling laughed at for why being more intelligent than someone else doesn't help you.

Example: A man dreamed of Matthew Perry making him jealous that someone he knew liked talking to Matthew Perry instead of him. In waking life, the dreamer was too nice and careful about putting up with a dishonest family member not moving out of an inherited property that had to be sold. He assumed the family member would choose to move after he contacted a lawyer because it made perfect sense. He couldn't believe how ignorant the tenant was about laughing at him for wasting his time talking to a lawyer without giving him a 30-day notice first. The dreamer was also aware of his entire family watching the altercation. In this case, Matthew Perry may have reflected his feelings about himself being laughable for being a nicer careful person who was more rational than the dishonest family member about why moving out made perfect sense while wasting time with a lawyer while his whole family watched.

Polygamy

To dream of polygamy may be a sign that you don't feel as important as someone else in relationship or commitment. Giving your all to someone who doesn't feel that giving their all to you is necessary. A sign that you need to demand more respect or start setting boundaries.

If you are the polygamist in the dream who is married to multiple partners it may be a sign that you feel more important than other people in a relationship or commitment. Positively, it may reflect your superiority or heightened sense of responsibility. Negatively, it may be a sign that are not returning the loyalty or respect that other people are giving you.

Alternatively, multiple marriage partners may simply reflect multiple areas of your life or habits that you are emotionally "married to" at the same time. Different behaviors or coping mechanisms that are very helpful to you. Negatively, it may be a sign that you feel stuck with a number of different problems.

Proposal

To dream of a proposal represents a permanent decision or commitment that is being considered. The potential for a change. A person or situation may be asking for more commitment from you. A significant new opportunity or change is presenting itself. Doing everything you can to secure a situation or relationship for the future.

Alternatively, a proposal may reflect your feelings about marriage or a long-term relationship. If you are being proposed to, your reaction to the proposal may reflect your feelings about the relationship.

Wife

To dream of your current wife represents an aspect of your personality or area of your life that is a supportive source of passive confidence. Emotional support, nurturing, intuition, and passive safety that you rely on. An aspect of yourself that is permanently supportive by being more passive and safer than you are. Feeling that you are committed to behavior or a habit that is more passively safer than you usually are. It may represent a nurturing, supportive, and resilient aspect of yourself that you can rely on during difficult times. A nurturing, supportive, and resilient person in your waking life who provides unwavering support and guidance during difficult times. Feeling that you deserve to be confident in a passive state even if it means getting angry or yelling first to achieve it.

Negatively, dreaming of your wife may represent a passively safer area of your life that has always worked that's starting to have problems. Feeling stuck with passivity that doesn't do anything except say it's better. Overdoing relying on nurturing, supportive, and resilient aspects of yourself that you rely on during difficult times. A feeling of dependence on a supportive source of nurturing, supportive safety, and passivity, leading to a lack of confidence and self-reliance. Feeling "married" to an emotional aspect of yourself that doesn't help. Relying on anger to stay passive.

Dreaming of a husband and wife may also reflect a theme of conscience and intuition where the man represents the conscience about decision-making and the woman represents the intuition about safety for the future. An example would be a fat husband and a wife that is too skinny. The husband may reflect a conscience or style of decision-making that is lazy while the wife would represent an intuition or future thinking for safety that isn't strong. Famous people oddly pared as couples may reflect a style of conscience and intuition based on their most apparent traits.

Alternatively, your wife may reflect your current projection of her and your current relationship. Anxieties or fears about the future of your relationship with your wife. Dissatisfaction with the relationship in waking life.

Example: A woman dreamed of seeing a husband and wife. In waking life she had decided to she wanted to move, but intuitively knew it wasn't safe to because she couldn't afford to.

Example 2: A man dreamed that Evangeline Lilly was his wife. In waking life he was repeatedly talking back to someone about never listening to them ask him to reduce himself again because he believed he was important enough to deserve to be better than that. He felt he deserved to passively respect himself passed the demands made of him. In this case, the wife symbolism may have reflected the man's desire for a strong confident passivity that didn't deserve to be asked twice.

Example 3: A female healthcare worker dreamed of seeing the dead wife of a male patient she was taking care of. In waking life, the woman experienced a dying male patient making a full recovery when it was expected that the patient would die. She was very religious and feared that man would not have an opportunity to be saved by God. In this case, the wife may have reflected the woman's feelings about the man "being married" to deserving to live as though God was supportive, nurturing, and intuitive about keeping him alive against all odds.
