Personal symbolism
A cousin can hold a place between close family and chosen friendship, so the dream may draw attention to loyalties that cross household lines. The first scene associates a cousin with disappointment and affliction; the second focuses on affectionate letters and a rupture between families. The contrast may sharpen your attention to what is shared, what is kept at a distance, and how family ties affect your sense of belonging. Recall the tone of the correspondence and the feeling around your cousin. Your real relationship, recent contact, or the role cousins play in your family story may give the image its personal weight.
