Being in a coffin marks the closing of a chapter and the settling of old matters. This dream occurs when the brain works to file away a life stage that has run its course, setting a limit between the past and the present.
The presence of an ending in this dream allows for a transition that is not loud or disruptive. While the sensation of a closed chapter can carry a weight of loss, it also provides the necessary space for a person to move forward without the drag of unresolved history.
Seeing someone alive in a coffin indicates that a particular sorrow remains active and unintegrated, as the mind has not yet allowed a specific loss to settle into the past.
The state of being in a casket provides the finality of a closed door, which grounds the dream in the reality of an ending.

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.
