If a friend appears in your dream, pay attention to how they behave.

If they communicate with you in a familiar way, your dream may simply be reflecting the important part your friend plays in your life. If, however, your friend acts out of character or oddly, your unconscious may be warning you about an aspect of their character that makes you feel uneasy. On the other hand, your dream may be warning you that it is you rather than your friend that the dream is depicting, as the dreaming mind tends to project aspects of yourself onto people you are close to in waking life in order to make you aware of aspects of your personality that are being neglected or suppressed.

If you have a dream in which a friend suddenly turns on you or even tries to kill you, this image may have been sent to tell you that this particular friend is not all that they seem to be in real life.
