S.C. Puri, Ludhiana.

Many times life seems to come to a standstill and one begins to desire some change. The travelling portrays desire to move on to a different place. Why don’t you take a long trip. It will do you a world of good.

I am a 24-year-old married woman. Three years ago my grandfather passed away. I was very attached to him. I frequently see him dying in my dreams. He does not want to die. I see a lot of people eating food in his house. I ask them why are they eating when he has not died as yet.

This inability to accept that your near and dear one is gone for ever is quite natural. Time heal wounds if you are willing to allow it to do so. It is about time you came to terms with reality.

I am 16 years old. In my dream I see my death many times.

Sonalika, Kurukshetra.

No fear, Sonalika. Your dream predicts a long life.

I am a 17-year-old girl preparing for my medical exams. I dreamt of a lion sitting in front of my bedroom. But it did not harm me. In another dream I saw a donkey running behind me, wanting to hurt me.

Neha Gupta, Pathankot.

What you perceive as a threat is not so in reality and vice-versa. So I suppose you need to shift your priorities regarding the papers you are preparing for.
