After someone dies, some people believe that it’s possible for them to communicate with us in different ways. This is called “after-death communication”.
Sometimes, people think they see or hear the person who died. Maybe the person appears in a dream, or they hear their voice or see their face when they’re awake. That can feel really good, like a happy memory or a comforting presence.
Other times, people believe the person who died is trying to send them a message. They might see a sign that reminds them of the person, like a bird or a flower that was special to them. Or they might have a strong feeling that the person is with them, even though they can’t see or hear them.
People who believe in after-death communication think it can be a way for the person who died to let us know they’re okay or to offer comfort to the people they left behind. It can also be a way for us to remember them and feel connected to them, even after they’re gone.
