"A single dream is more powerful than 1000 realities"
Dreams act as a projection of your subconscious mind. Use this space to talk about what you dream about at night whether they be good or bad. Feel free to express yourself here.
Does anyone here never see faces when they dream? Like, they know who the person is but they never see the face just body clothes etc? It's so odd to me, perhaps faces and emotions are too complicated for my dream brain to handle :P
Yes I have experienced dreams when I was unable to see there faces. I didn't know them in my situation but my spouse did..smh
@zwtn079 What a unique phenomenon! I've never heard of that, it sounds quite interesting though. Do you ever get surprised or shocked to see these faceless people in your dreams?
It is normal to me now :) not at all surpised,it's just as if nothing was put of the ordinary aha
I dreamed of an acquaintance committing suicide, which kind of disturbed me. I googled it and apparently dreaming of death means that you are going through great change and growth in your life, and dreaming of suicide means that you're changing so much (especially during recovery) that the old you has to "die". I felt better after reading that, but I wonder why I was dreaming of someone I barely know rather than myself...
I had a dream about a future in the career of my dreams( haha). I was successful and happy in my profession with a loving husband by my side. This dream came during a rather stressful time in my life so it seemed like the dream was a sign that everything would be okay eventually. To keep the faith:)
I hate dreams..in many occasions they came true. More I guess of a warning. Example in the past if I had a dream of a girl or woman never saw the face but hair,voice,skin tone etc. A few days after I would find something out. So it got to the point I dream I would tell him I had a dream so tell me know before I find out. Of course he denied but I found out. Last one was I had a dream he got this young girl he was cheating on me with pregnant and it was a girl. I just kept warning him about my dream for 2mths he says I'm crazy. Ok, then 1 wk after 1 had my third son I got a call from her sister that she was 6mths pregnant he was the father and it was going to be a girl. Smh..idk.. even if I dream of dark or dirty water it means we are going to fight. I guessing the unclear dirty water symbolize problems. That's what happens to me
Wow, I wonder if it's your subconscious that is picking up on cues that your heart and mind ignore... And then they manifest in your dreams? I think that some people are more sensitive and aware of non verbal things that take place. I've been told I'm sensitive but, looking back, I think the signs were always there. I have these to a much smaller, less critical, degree. I have what I call commercials in my dreams. It breaks from the real dream for a 30-45 second spot that shows me a scenario happening. Within a few days, it happens. All meaningless things though - just lots of deja vu. Because mine don't affect my well being, I've learned to enjoy them. Obviously I would feel differently in your shoes.
So you experience it too. It was at a point I didn't want to sleep not knowing what I might dream of..it's a pain at times. But I think it's gotten better since I try to think of other things but if I'm stressed definitely it happens.
Yes, it happens to me often. However, only occasionally does it end up actually applying to my personal life. When I had a bad BF, I used to have dreams similar to yours all the time. I always had a feeling he was doing something but was trying to trust him. Eventually, he got caught and those ended. I think your brain is designed to protect you. In some cases, you block traumatic experiences. In other cases, I believe that you're given signs. I'm not saying trust every single dream. Not at all. I guess I'm saying trust your gut. I sometimes have to force myself to have a difficult conversation in my head.... Is this right? Would I treat someone this way? Would I want someone to treat me this way? Have they shown me the respect I deserve? In most cases, I know the answer to the question but it's sometimes an ugly difficult pill to swallow. I just say to myself, know your value/worth.
Well here's one dream my friend told me about last year.
She says it begins with a blank white space and 1 solid red line.
_______________________________________________________________________
Eventually she begins to feel an emotion - let's say it's happiness. The line acts almost like a heart beat monitor, and responds to the emotion.
____________________________/\___/\___/\____/\______________________________
But eventually more and more emotions invade the space and the line can not handle it. It begins to spike, knot and become a chaotic mess until finally filling up the entire space.
The intensity of all the emotions are so real - fear,anger, sadness, anxiety. When everything goes red, it symbolizes the hear and soul becoming overwhelmed and you wake up suddenly. She said this simplistic red line was the most terrifying dream she has every experienced.
That's intriguing. That actually makes me feel setter about being slightly terrified of the evil platypus with duck feet
Weird dream alert.
I had a very strange dream a few months ago. I dreamed that my mother went out of the house to see my brother and she instructed me to cook spinach while she was gone. I suddenly felt so sleepy and I fell asleep in the kitchen, completely forgetting about the spinach. Then, while asleep, I had a dream (double dream, yay!) of my late dad as an old man (impossible, as he was 34 when he died) gardening. I talked to him about some things I can't remember, and he told me:"If you made different choices while there was still time, you would be somewhere else now." Then I woke up (still dreaming) in the kitchen and realized that I didn't prepare the spinach and that mother is going to be mad. I quickly started washing the leaves as she came in. She was laughing (very unusual). Then I woke up.
@NataliaNectarine - So inception is real
What an interesting dream, do you think it means something? It's a good philosophy to live by - To Change the Future you must Change the Present.
Well, I really never thought of it that way. It's just a strange dream, I don't know if it has a meaning or not.
When I used to go to school I'd have dreams where I'd wake up and get ready and loads of stuff would happen then I'd wake up again and get ready and loads of stuff would happen all the meanwhile I was actually getting woke up but going back to sleep. So it just became this confusing mess of me thinking I was already up then either waking up or going back to sleep. All while being stuck in loop of getting ready for school.and when I finally got to school my brain was soup and I was really Confused
I was really late very often
Ever since my best friend left, my recurring night mare is back. I'm in the largest cave you could imagine and the floor is white. Not white like it's white tile or painted white it's just white like it's not there. I try to shout but no sound comes out. I scream and scream and nothing happens and I feel lonelier than ever. Then the black cloud comes in and the walls run with blood. The black cloud comes and surrounds me and I can't out run it and it fills me sucking the life out of me until I can't breath or try to scream anymore. Lately I also get dreams where my best Friend forgives me and I'm happier then ever before but the disappointment when I wake up is getting a little too much to handle.
@GeneStealer What a terrifying experience! But I must admit the symbolism and artistic nature of the dream is phenomenal. You clearly have a more complex, creative mind.
Sounds like bardo
(Just a warning, my dreams are usually quite surreal)
I had a dream where I was taking a multiple-choice test. It went on and on, and I had started to bubble in an answer, and when I had done that, I was sucked in through the mark that I had filled the circle with on the test form. I woke up after that :P So it was really short
I had the weirdest dream last night! So I was at my grandpa's, with my sister (her and I both have social anxiety but I used to have extremely S.A.D). My grandpa told us he was going out for a walk and to watch his stuff. My sister and I were reckless and didn't really listen. We ran around the apt. and were care free. When my grandpa came home he was pissed. He pointed to the huge broken stones on the ground and said they were his mother's. He interrogated us for who broke them, and both my sister and him thought it was me. My grandpa was all like "Natasha I know your afraid of me. Is that why you broke them?" I started crying in the dream.
@doublerainbow Awh that's awful *Gives virtual hug* Maybe it's saying something though? Maybe even your subconscious is thinking about your anxiety, perhaps it's time you find some good management methods and support yourself and your sister. You have great strength in you and I'm so proud of you for getting this far. I suggest you visit our self-help guides for further assistance or talk to a listener when you feel down.
