I haven't had any recently that were real interesting, but most of my dreams come true or tell me a message in one way or another. Sometimes they are very straightforward, other times the message comes through either all distorted or in codes and I have to pick them apart and analyze what they mean.

The deja vue dreams are usually easy to recognize.  They don't let go of you right away when they awaken you.  The dreams that get to me are all the flying dreams.  I feel so close to it that I question myself in the dream why everyone else doesn't just float up and fly around.  I even ask myself in those dreams if I'm dreaming...in the dream.  It's really weird.  I even worry about running into power lines while flying in those dreams.

[nikkiblaze33]

so do you always have vivid dreams?
i do, well the ones i remember when i wake up are always extremely vivid..
down to every last detail.
also, from what perspective do you dream from (viewpoint, first person, etc.)

[hicaniplay]

My dreams generally relate to what I've been doing or reading lately. Nothing deep or meaningful in them lol
Multiple viewpoints, often changes in the dream in fact. Sometimes I'm me, sometimes someone else, and lots of the time I'm not even an actual active participant, just watching and occasionally in an omnipresent "know what everyone is thinking" viewpoint.


Here's a few questions to you guys though: if you're bi-lingual, do you dream in another language? Are your dreams black and white or colorful? Can you read in your dreams? Have you ever visited someplace in your dreams and then found the place in "the real world"?


I'm not bi-lingual. Mine are generally colorful. I have read in my dreams. And no, no pre-visiting for me. Heck, my dreams usually get my house wrong, much less somewhere I've never seen lol


And boring, like I said. Once I had a dream all about Tetris I hate that game, but was wanting a high score at the time lol

A lot of the time I'm reading... at least until I start waking up or my mind runs out of ideas and then suddenly the words stop making sense, right at the climax, of course and I wake up frustrated lol. And then the book's real story doesn't even go in that direction.

I'm lucky to not have any nightmares. Only have one I can remember, from being a kid (which I had two or three times). My twin, when I told her, said she had the same, only she was standing in a different place - which admittedly freaked me out a bit lol. My twin generally had more awesome/scary dreams - like dinosaurs in the basement or t-rex ripping the roof off the house or a serial killer monster stalking her and the cast of Spongebob Squarepants (hilarious sounding, terrifying in how she told it *shudders*).

She also has lots of flying dreams - which I can't remember ever having, not a real one anyways (occasional sensation of suddenly falling when just going to sleep not counting).

Oh and an occasional *bleep* dream, of course heheh.


Anyways, nothing mystical or whatever, which I don't mind. I generally don't even bother remembering them. My dreams don't make much sense or are that entertaining anyways (but I'm easy to please when awake, much less asleep, so I don't mind lol).

I haven't been dreaming lately or I just don't remember. But I am trying to go back in time in my dream. I think about it before I fall asleep, but I never seem to dream about it. Then there is another type of dream but I cannot post that here. LOL.

[nikkiblaze33]

i always dream from a birds eye birds eye view stand point.
almost like i am the background. 
lol

to remember dreams, i suggest keeping a dream journal by your bed   
it helps

That sounds interesting. Different from flying dreams or whatever usual dreams people mention.
(And ditto on the wanting to return to a dream and failing lol darn brain, never does what you want )

And good tip nikkiblaze33. Something I occasionally think about doing, but the good dreams worth sharing I usually phone up my twin and tell to upon waking lol

I had a dream this morning that I was squirrel hunting and I would be part ways into the trigger pull (broke 1st stage of 2 stage trigger) and would notice the squirrel was now an eagle's head (or other bird of prey's head) and I would immediately stop and pull up the rifle.  This repeated a few times.  The interesting thing was noticing the magnification of the scope -- although it didn't seem quite right but I am not sure why.  That it wasn't squirrel season didn't seem to matter to me, and why I was hunting from the top of a house that apparently had battlements also didn't seem strange to my dreaming self.

[nikkiblaze33]

haha   

squirrel season, hmm  
lol random,

i love it.

and inertia4, i like the way you think

I've had a lifetime reoccuring dream of being chased by a tornado and running from it is like being stuck in mud in slow motion.  A good 20 years or so of that kooky *bleep* spooky dream.   

[nikkiblaze33]

thats a tripp.. 
maybe the tornado symbolises something that your subliminal thoughts have been trying to tell you,
like your stuck, in one way or another..
it could be anything from supressed memories, unfaced fears, being 'stuck in a rut', etc.

have you ever tried dream control/[self]hypnotism/dream books?
insight on your unconcious mind can tell you alot,
overrall my opinion is try renewing your thoughts and clearing your head as much as you can,
so you can eventually create your own dreams   

[MAparicio2968]

For as long as I can remember I have always had 2 dreams every night ... 1) I'm buried alive & I can see the bugs crawling on me .. 2) I'm falling into darkness.
They usually last a cpl of seconds & are very vivid - I can actually feel all over me what's going on & I wake up trembling for a few mins until I realize that it was just the dreams again.  I guess this is the main reason I want to be cremated & try to stay away from heights.

[nikkiblaze33]

dreams of falling can be related to transition to obo/astral projection
