Someone smiling at me

Someone smiling at you in a dream can have different connotations depending on the type of smile. A sincere, happy smile reveals that you would feel pleased or fortunate due to happy situations, possibly involving a crush or a love interest. An evil, sinister smile, however, means that mysteries would get in the way of understanding certain situations and lead you to offend someone you care about.

A black figure with an evil smile

My cousins and I were finding our way out of a building and as we were running I saw a black figure with wings go by really quickly and as I was going to wake up I saw her face and she smiled but it was a creepy smile.

Trying to leave or escape a building refers to your rebellious nature. Authority figures in your life are trying to steer you into specific paths which they think would result in a better future for you and your cousins. However, you have other ideas and plans for yourself. So in this scenario, you are trying to stand up to your elders and other individuals who are advising you to pick a certain course, job or opportunity instead of following your passions. Similarly, the winged creature or female in the vision is the one you are most afraid of. In reality this is someone you look up to and possibly hold in high esteem. She could be the reason why you cannot fully decide to go your own way because you are afraid of disappointing her.

Dead mother smiling

Seeing your deceased mother smiling at you is a good omen about the current state of your life. It means you are doing well and you are making her proud even when she is no longer with you physically. In Islamic dream interpretation, the presence of the dreamer's dead mom connotes disapproval. In this case, the pleasant aura of this specter of your dead parent is validation for your efforts. If you are planning to wed or make a major decision, then take this as a sign that you are on the right track.

A dead person smiling

The vivid image of an apparently dead person smiling at you could cause feelings of discomfort or worry. However, according to the works of Cayce and Miller, such an image is actually a sign of good fortune. This symbol tends to mean you would get along well with those who are close to you. For instance, there may be reduced fighting in your household or a less competitive atmosphere at your school or place of work.
