I was wondering what people's interpretation of dreams are? For example, Quick summary. I had a dream the other night that I was holed up with a load of people, a la The Alamo, and we had basic weapons against current armoury. I was the leader of this group. We also had basic rations and a lot of people died of starvation but we held out in the end and the outside army withdrew and went away. Lot's of other stuff went on in the dream as well, violence, erotica, blood and gore, real voices etc... I emerged with the few remaining few survivors to a hero's welcome. Now the thing about this dream was that I could clearly see people, they were real people but I didn't know any of them from my life. How does the mind do this or what goes on in dreams? I was told that maybe I was probably a King in another life and that they were people from back then. Could this be true because besides this dream I often get "deja vu" feelings, like I've been in a certain place before. Edited by Biker Pat - 06-May-2018 at 15:10 |

I've had those Deja vu experiences too....amazing! That's some dream ,Pat...very vivid. I've often wondered about the relevance of dreams myself. One night my little fella and I dreamt of the same thing simultaneously! Apparently an old grandaunt of mine could interpret dreams...wish she was around to advise me now!

great topic Pat - that's one vivid dream!
I had a discussion a while back about dreams and reincarnation - deep, but makes sense. Either I don't dream much now, or don't remember the dreams I used to have a recurring dream of being in something like quicksand, being chased by something, and not being able to run! There's one for the psychiatrists! I've also had dreams within dreams - have a mad dream, then you wake up but everything's not right - then wake up again for real Anyone else dream like that ? - maybe i'll stop taking those tablets then... |

Am fascinated by dreams. I don't wanna go out and buy books on the stuff. Would rather hear peoples opinions and experiences with them. |

Sifting through my own dreams, I find the more confusing the dream, is when my own reality is in a bit of reorganizing! As a comp therapist the question of whether the client dreams or not always comes up, with the lead on to whether they dream in black and white or colour? Supposedly the more logical minded a person is the dreams would tend to be black&white.

Why do you think that we have dreams? This is still an unresolved topic amongst researchers as to the reason we have dreams. One theory suggests that dreams serve as a means for cleansing and release. During the day, we may hold back our feelings and repress our anger. Thus dreams serve as a safe outlet for us to release our negative emotions. Another theory says that dreams is a biologically necessary aspect of sleep. Research has shown that people who were prevented from entering the dream state and woken up before they can dream were more easily irritated, jittery, and performed far below average. I believe these are two theories summarize why we dream. |

What does it mean to have a dream within a dream? Having a dream within a dream may be safer and more acceptable way to express material from your unconscious. The dream within a dream protects you, the dreamer from waking up. Such dreams often reflect a hidden but crucial issue which you need to acknowledge and confront. ,thats for you CP |

Almost every dream I've had, at some stage in it, I've been on "the enterprise" or similar starship. Not sure what it means, but I guess I watched too much star trek!!! (think I may be a wannabe astronaut who's afraid of heights) I usually try to interprete dreams that are quite vivid, whether scary, happy, or whatever, as I believe your subconsious mind tries to tell you something you're too busy to listen to when you're awake!!

Lesley, - too many drugs My dreams always end up in me not being able to move and something is stalking me. Think it is the bank manager I also have dreams about tidal waves - this was when I lived beside the sea and my efforts to save my kids by driving away really fast. My husband also had this dream - but the weirdest thing that ever happened to me was in our old house. There was a cold spot in the hall and I often saw something like a shadow there. It wasn't until we left the house that both my kids and my husband told me that they had seen an old man in the hall on several occasions. I checked back into the history of the house and every owner ( bar us) had someone die in strange circumstances in the house usually a young person. The person who bought the house from us - left it for no reason and it has been empty for the past two years. She is living two houses away from it in a rented property !!!! Very strange. |

Lucky escape there,Mary??? Tonto's missus Anita is very good at analysing dreams. What I am told about running away from someone in a dream,like someone is chasing you and you can't run away,you just can't move,is supposedly because your legs are crossed in bed??? Also you (apparently) never remember the start of your dream,just like you never remember falling asleep (as in the exact monent). I believe you cannot dream about your own death (the old urban myth is that you die if you do!) And,is it just me or do you find if someone gives you a piece of paper to read,you just cannot make it out? It's like it's not English-not even letters. Likewise,try to remember tomorrow morning what people were saying to you in a dream-they don't actually say anything,you just hear it,or it's a given that something was said-you don't actually see them saying it-you don't see their lips move,but you just 'inherit' the information. Strange stuff... |

Pat, Have a very good book somewhere on the topic of dreams will try & root it up. Ever dream of something or someone and they turn up next day ???? Happens to me quite often - have to say at this stage I find it amusing. They say the interpretation of dreams varies but usually signifies the subconscious - so if checking them up, take the "good" that comes out of them, never anything negative. Goodness breeds better times, negativity breeds misery. V |

You're right there Peter! When we were in France this year, we bought some handmade cheese. "Matured for three years" your man said. Now when we sampled it, we had a taste from the centre of the cheese, which was strong but delicious. The fecker gave us a slice of the edge which, by them time we got back to the campsite, was smelling quite pungent. After washing down a few slices of it with a bottle of red wine that night, we both had the freakiest dreams ever! Who needs drugs for a bad trip? Can't remember the details now but Brian did wake up clawing at the wall at one point. If I ever see that cheese seller again... Jen |

Pete, Heard that one about cheese and I agree with Jen, it seems to stimulate whatever causes dreams. I get dreams where I know people in the dream but they are totally out of context to how I knew them before. These people I may not have known well but they feature vividly in my dream. I knew a guy who worked in Reservations in Aer Lingus and he recently popped up as a barman selling lotto tickets as well as drink behind a bar somewhere. I was in the queue and I had the winning numbers and there was great banter re my winning and drinks all round. But why him and why as a barman? As I said above I see people clearly that I have never seen before and they are of different nationalities. |
