Brother
Oneself, or the denied part of self, meeting whatever is met in the dream. These may include rivalry, anger, feelings of persecution, love and admiration, authority, or an outgoing ability to deal with the world.
Brothers often appear in different ways in a sisters dreams. She can be used as a helpful DIY guy; or someone to share fun with, or even someone who needs your help. See Characters and People in Dreams.
If you don’t have a brother, it most likely depicts an aspect of your personality illustrated by the dream character, or your male characteristics.
Example: Dabney was a baby about 10 months old. I carried him around but he was still capable of doing all these craft things. Now we were in the farmer’s house. The baby had grown up. Now he was a younger brother and he was sort of me.
In the dream the person recognises that the dreamt of brother is actually as aspect of herself.
Brothers: If you have brothers in a dream can mean many things depending on what is done or the dream context and environment. So look up What is the main action in the dream?; Background; Context and any other things they are up to, like fighting, helping each other, etc.
Death of a brother: This suggest the death of the Elder Brother, and Its significance to the world. So is loss of a talent because of defects, imbalances, or weaknesses in the physical body. Death of a younger brother the loss of vulnerability, or something you cared for or were at odds with.

Older brother: Authority; one’s capable outgoing self; feelings of persecution.
In man’s dream – if younger brother: Vulnerable feelings; oneself at that age. See: boy; man.

In my dream our whole family found my younger brother’s twin after many years as handicapped… In real my brother don’t have any twins.. Can u please tell me what does this dream mean?
I dreamt that I was talking a shower I’m the dark and my hair was in my face. I couldn’t see…finally I peeked out the curtain and the bathroom was long and spooky. I couldn’t move and called out for my brother. He answered but did not come. I fell and woke up. It was scary. What did it mean?

But other dream experts might reply.
I had a dream a night ago that took place in my old school’s cafeteria. Keep in mind, I graduated in 2010. In my dream, my older brother who died in 2014, was there, behind a counter. I showed him my books I have published and he was proud of me.
When he was alive, he used to call and encourage my siblings and I to make something of ourselves and not give up, make him proud. Unfortunately, I never got to tell him I published my first book in 2014 because he died in February, I published my book in September.
I keep hoping that he is/would be proud of me, but I have no way of knowing.
I dreamed of my younger brother who died 1/6/14. He, my older brother and mom were in my kitchen talking and laughing. He looked strong. He was drinking milk and telling us a story like he used to. In the dream I asked if he was really there, was I the only one who saw him. They both said yes he was there. I was the only amazed.
Good day .
Just wanna ask for some insights .. its been two times that i dreamed about my younger disabled brother ..
In my dreams , it always showed that i carried him . But it was so easy for me to do it . Which is very different from real life .
Thanks
Stef
Dear Stef – Without knowing the context of the dreams in which you carry your disabled brother, it is difficult to know what the meaning is of you carrying him easily;
http://dreamhawk.com/dream-dictionary/not-enough-information/ I can give you some hints and information though which might help you to explore this dream yourself.
Carrying him could mean that you can easily take responsibility for him and support him, without you perceiving that as a burden in your life; give some of your strength to him, not necessarily only on the physical level.
It may (also) mean that you are carrying a part of your younger self that has not been able to grow into its full(er) potential yet; http://dreamhawk.com/dream-dictionary/potential/
Another way to look at this dream experience is to see it as an expression of how much you have unconsciously absorbed – are carrying within yourself – from your disabled brother in your waking life; http://dreamhawk.com/approaches-to-being/questions-2/#Explains
