Do Dreams Really Mean Anything? - Can your dreams be helpful in your life?

I must be very boring, I seem to have very unusually weird dreams. Like the other week, I remember flying around a tree (well more like levitating) and then this face, shaped like the First Emperor of China came towards me, and I round-housed it, and it shriveled away. All of my dreams are like this. It's like a compilation of all the images in my head stuck together, and when you have a photographic memory, it doesn't do you any favours. And in answer to your query, no I don't believe dreams mean anything. Call me a boring fart if you wish, but dreams for me are just compilations of images that your brain throws out at you to cope with the stress put on it whilst sleeping.

Someone care to explain to me what 'lucid dreams' are?

Lucid Dreaming is basicly where while you are dreaming, you somehow realize that what you are doing is just a dream and the waking mind (the part of the brain you use when you are awake) gains controll of the dream, i think making it what you want it to be...

if you ever want to know the definition of somthing, you can always go to http://google.com and type in define:word in this case it would be define:lucid dreams, or define:lucid dreaming.


but yes, i think that dreams do have a meaning. i beieve that dreams are the inner desiers of your heart... i have had multiple nights where i would go to bed thinking man i really want more memory and a new video card, for my computer so i can play games on it...like world of warcraft, and i would dream that i got them and im sitting there playing... or somthing along the lines of that... then theres days where i say to myself i want jessica to go out with me... and then in a week or so ill have a dream that jessica is going out with me...

then there are the dreams that tell my future ill dream my dad is calling me and asking me to mow the lawn.... i wake up and start doing the dishes and 10 minutes later i get a call from my dad asking me to mow the lawns... its creepy >_<

I think dreams only have meaning because you want them too. I believe that dreams are made up of things you do, people you see, and things you hear while your awake. In dreams, sometimes things are straight-forward and seem easy to understand, and sometimes nothing makes sense and you analyze it. You give dreams meaning based on how you feel about the 'awake' situation, and what you would like it too mean. Hidden meanings, I don't think so. Personal meanings felt inside the self, a good probablity.

I have two theroes on this topic that I have widely discussed with many other people. The first one is the possibility of the body going over the days whole entire scheme of events and taking the most significant ones and playing them over, sub conciously of course. As far as what I know, I think the body logs all of the days feelings, understandings and new knowledge. I think that those are blended together and placed into a summary of the day at the end of this so called log. It's like this, if the body was mad at so and so time, then the dream may be something mad like a fight or something. If the person was scared at the time, then the dream is of a person who is being attacked by a monster or whatnot.

My other theory is that both the consious and sub cousious have a day of their own. In the day time, the consious does all of the real actions in the plus side. Like typing on this site, drinking, eating and all of the stuff you do on a regular basis. on the other hand the sub-cousious does out of the ordinary things that the cosuious would never get near. So in reality, they are both opposites of themselves in many ways.

What I don't understand is what kind of a dream does a person have when they are uncousious, in a coma or on sleeping gas. Anyone have some therys on this?

I had a dream so real that it woke me up.It was about this woman that I was madly in love with.I saw her at an apartment laundry room.We talked and for some reason the conversation hinted at us getting back together.I have not thought about her in years.But what was so strange about it was,she made a comment that said,14 years is along time for two people to get back together.I have never figured out how long we have been broken up.I counted and it is 14 years.This dream was so real I had wake up just to make sure things were ok with my mind .What do you make of this?

Do Dreams Really Mean Anything?

Certainly that dreams have meaning very influential as that of science and a master constants in Islam because the religion integrated defect in humans and not in Islam
Compare with items on the dream closest to the words of the Koran and did not find conversations with the words of our Lord God of our Prophet Muhammad then compare with the customs and traditions and sayings popular and traditional stories

Analyses the meaning of words dream and coordinated by the dream and personal prestige and social status, personality and intelligence intervene interpreter and wisdom and experience to give the dream news sure of the meaning of his dream
