Dreamed I killed my best friend, distressed about it

I actually feel guilty and disturbed by my actions in my dream...what could it mean?

To simplify, I found out my boyfriend had made out with my best friend...he told me he was in love with her and that he loved her more than me. Later on in dream time I went into a rage/blur and attacked my friend, who is a tiny person...technically she wasn't dead but everyone was waiting in the driveway for the police and I saw her crumpled body, I couldn't believe what I had done and told her I was so sorry and crying and then ran away before cops could come.

I'm not a violent or angry person and me and my friend have a very good friendship, no rivalry between us or fighting or resentment, she's my oldest friend....my relationship with my boyfriend is also solid, I have internal insecurities but I know neither him or my friend would ever do that to me. I'm just so disturbed that this could come out of my sub conscious. Can anyone relate or offer some thoughts or insight?
It sounds like you dont trust one of them...
I'm confused, was your dream about a Leo?


Dreams are rarely literal. Treat this dream more as an allegory, with the situation representing a moment of high anxiety or intense improbability. Dreams are sometimes the way we filter our raw emotions. Your mind found an unlikely "what if" scenario and played it out, possibly because of insecurities your mind is trying to tackle subconsciously. Don't let it shake you up too much.

Our dreams are our subconscious what we continually may can't express ... Usually dreams about death doesn't mean literal death most of the time.... It mostly means death (something that needs to end) on a conscious level ... This could be friendship needs to die... A situation ... A romance... A job... An argument ... A fear.... Something needs to be let go of and die... When we experience traumatic dreams... It's because of deep hidden fears buried... That we may refuse to consciously express .. Ever heard of your dreams haunting you... Well there is some truth to that...
