Crying

You might be releasing some emotions that you are incapable of releasing in your waking life. These are good dreams that usually has the dreamer waking up feeling good. If you have unconscious emotions that are pent up sometimes it get released in our dreams because we are unable to do in our life.

Needing help, grieving, Prov. 21:13

Since dreams usually reveal the exact opposite of what you believe to be true about yourself, dreams of crying or seeing someone crying is showing the emotion of sadness in its unexpressed form within you. The dream symbolism may be such that it would not normally bring you to tears, and yet, you awaken somewhat sad or perplexed. This is the psyche's way of exploring unrecognized feelings or pain. Another character crying portrays unacknowledged suffering in terms of the characteristics that you associate with them. Consider whether there is in fact something that you are not facing because you are keeping a "stiff upper lip" about it.

Lamenting or crying in a dream means distress, sorrow and stress. If such lamenting or crying is done out of fearing God Almighty, it means that salvation and joy will follow.
