Brother or sister in a dream: meaning

What dream books say

A brother or sister is read as the one closest to you who is still not you — rivalry and loyalty together. Dream books also see them as a side of yourself you rarely show. Fighting with a sibling points to inner conflict or old family tensions. A sibling in danger is linked to worry for them, or for a part of yourself they represent. Dreaming of a sibling you do not have is read as the wish for companionship and support. A happy reunion stands for reconciliation; it can help to ask which of your sibling’s traits you recognise in yourself.
