Grave robbing occurs when the mind attempts to retrieve something that was previously thought to be lost or permanently settled. This dream process unearths information or emotions that the brain has already filed away as finished. The brain is revisiting a conclusion to see if any part of it remains relevant to the present.
The search for what lies beneath the surface tests whether a conclusion is truly final. This can involve the sudden resurfacing of a secret or an old tension that was thought to be buried. There is a risk that revisiting these ended matters disrupts the current stability of the mind. Some matters belong to the past. The process allows for the integration of forgotten fragments into the waking life.
Digging up a grave in a dream turns the revisiting of the past into a strenuous, physical labor. The dreamer exerts energy to pull a specific, hidden truth out of the ground.
For its more general meaning: Dream about a grave
Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
