Re: [Private]
The difference is that dreaming of death in multiple ways could point on a fear or an fixation about death itself, while recurring dreams of any kind are usually born out of distress over the initial dream. As in, you think, just before going to bed, I hope I don't have that dream about dying again; then of course you do, because it's on your mind. And even then, it doesn't have to be a conscious thought. And one can lead to the other and back again...
