Why am I dreaming about my crush for these many days ??
Sometimes the people we know become habitual characters in our dreams. It helps to think of your crush as a certain personality or type of person that your dreaming mind is using to convey some character, rather than it being about her literally. To figure out what she represents to you, try to list 3-5 words that best describe her. When you think of her, what do you think about? Is she friendly, calm, and funny? Or maybe caddy, cruel, and confident? Your dreams are using her to show you ways that you might be dealing with someone like her in waking life. She is a stand-in for the type of person that matches your list of descriptions.

Another way to find meaning in dreams about your old crush is to ask the question - who was I during that time in my life, and what might that old me have to offer to my current life scenarios? Your dreams may be indicating that some life lesson you learned when you were into her is coming back into play in your life, and it's time to apply those life lessons, now.
How can you do a spiritual cleanse?
A spiritual cleanse needs to have an intention behind it, a reason that you are choosing to do it. It needs to have a ritual or ceremony, and the purpose of that is to distinguish it from your regular life. Some people will say a prayer every time they're at a stoplight. That's not going to be effective. Instead, you want to disrupt your typical rhythm when you're doing a cleanse. Set aside a specific time and place and make it ceremonial.

Next, you need some way to concretize it. When you are doing a spiritual cleanse, you are trying to connect what's invisible and internal for you with the external world. You want to stake your claim and take some ownership and a sense of authority over that. Say, "I am cleansing this space with this intention on this date and time." This will ensure your conscious mind recognizes the event as much as your imagination recognizes the event.
How do you interpret dreams?
For me, there are four steps that I use. The first step is to isolate the emotions in the dream. Make sure to pay attention to the emotions that you felt in the dream. Then disregard what you think you should have felt when you woke up. A lot of times people will have a dream that was actually engaging, but when they wake up, they're like, no, that should have been terrifying. I don't know why I wasn't scared. Step one is to write down the emotions that you experienced in the dream in the order that you experienced them.

Next, take that list (I like to call it the fingerprint of emotions of the dream) and see where in your waking life that same fingerprint of feelings has occurred. Oftentimes, you'll find a connection to something from last week.

The second step is to give the dream a title or to write down the theme of the dream. Think about if this dream were a book, then consider what's on the front cover of the book. That helps you figure out the details that are prominent and the details that might be smaller in importance.

The third step is to write down the main symbols. This is where you can do metaphor work, or you can go to a dream dictionary. It's important to remember when you list the main symbols, you also need to understand them in context. You can't just let a dream dictionary tell you exactly what it means, right? Symbols are so personal in the context of your life.

The final step is to see what other details are in the dream that want your attention. What still has your curiosity? Often, there'll be one really odd thing that hasn't come out in the first three steps. Sometimes, the detail that you pull out in that fourth step is the thing that your dreaming mind is suggesting you do about the issue.
What does it mean when you dream of dead bodies?
Anytime death is present in a dream, it represents a cycle of rebirth. You have to ask, what part of my waking life right now is coming to an end, and what might that give birth to going forward?

So if in a dream, I'm hanging around dead bodies, then for me, it's representative of being stuck. Stuck where I haven't yet let go of the thing that is already ended in my waking life, so that the new thing can be born next. It's a limbo. To respond to that dream, I would try to put closure to something that has ended or make a gesture of closure.

Something else to think about is that dead bodies are a natural phenomenon. A dream with dead bodies in it might not necessarily mean the same thing as if you dreamt of something supernatural happening, or something illogical happening. Dead bodies are a very natural part of our reality and of our lives. This means that the limbo you're in is normal and natural.
What does it mean if I keep dreaming about someone?
When known people show up in dreams, they often represent the character traits we associate with them. So if I think of that person as, say, super outgoing, confident, and inspiring—then in the dream, they might symbolize those traits within me that are ready to emerge.

Another layer: the person might be tied to a particular time in your life. If they’re from high school, for example, then the version of you that existed during that time might be resurfacing. Your subconscious is saying: “This part of me wants attention again.”
