I had a weird dream last night. It was about my beloved car :(

The vision was that I'm in my car running the A/C and waiting. Don't remember for what. A continuous cranking noise came from the engine compartment and freaked me out. I thought the engine was busted. I checked engine oil level and it was just fine. With some inspection here and there while I was freaked out, I found out that some metal from the from bumper was hitting the engine oil pan. The funny thing is, the engine oil pan was completely visible when I opened the hood (bonnet) and the idea of a metal part hitting the pan didn't make sense for having a noise similar to a busted engine.

The thing is, I had many dreams about hurting my car. All those dreams scared me like hell. Every time I woke up from those realistic (in feeling not sense haha) dreams I was so revealed.

Oh yeah, many times. The most recent correlates my fear of a future, knowing that my apathetic attitude I can't seem to ditch will end me in a waste. The dream was, dying but seeing from third person my mother trying to wake me up for school, and I was dead, and her devastation was very realistic for a dream, I think that's what shocked me.

There is a general advise in my belief which is not to tell of dreams that worry you.

Now, I see we all broke this one in this thread :D

So, at least, my thought is to not take interpretations of dreams seriously and just let it go and forget about it. Specially those bad dreams.

It's good advice, Smart_Guy, as I have cautioned people in the past, you tell me a dream, especially a troubling reoccurring dream, and you tell me far more about yourself than most realize. The connections aren't always very obvious to the dreamer.

It happened again :(

Last night I had a dream in which I saw poor people. Don't remember the details, but the last thing happened was me saying out loud "haram" a couple of times, then start crying, then waking up crying.

Note:
Haram here does not mean forbidden. It is a cultural expression when said with an upset face, it expresses disapproval of a seemingly negative act, usually a harsh one.

I know it sounds trite, Smart Guy, but only you can work out the "true" meaning(s) of the imagery that you are encountering. My inner nose smells a scent in your attitudes towards poor people (obviously compassionate, hence the tears) and your normal use of the word "haram".

IF I were to go out on a very long limb, I'd suggest that these poor folks are aspects of yourself that you are not giving expression. Try to do some things you have meant to do, but never got around to it, in your daily life and see if that morphs these characters. What I mean is, is there a hidden dancer in you, a hidden painter, a hidden mechanic... etc... different aspects of your creativity that are not being expressed, but are literally crying out for expression.

Just a thought...

I once had a series of dreams, all involving being lost on a journey. They were much more vivid that ordinary dreams: I could describe them in detail days later. I consulted the Yi Jing on whether they were significant and was told "The way of creativity is undergoing a transformation. The superior man wants to be timely in his moral advancement. His position is based on heavenly virtues. There will be success." So I started to seriously consider my beliefs, and to study, and a year later converted to Hellenism.

no one can de-borg my fact's ...NO-ONE!!
I woke up the other day and went to my kitchen sink for some water and i looked out of the window and my 86 year old neighbour was digging a hole in the garden where a 5' hazelnut tree was ....... The tree was there yesterday but he must have dug it up .

i remember he had a big red scarth rounds his neck to keep warm.


he has arthritis in his back and i thought ( for some strange reason) not to help him ....... I couldn't understand why because i would normally help .......so i turned back into my front room with my drink

and that was it ??????

i woke up and went to the kitchen to get a drink and looked out of the window to see what he had done in the garden ........ And the tree was back!!

i was in shock and had to go outside to check to see if i was going mad ..





the tree was still there and nobody had been digging........it was just dream

im scared right now because i cant believe its real or a dream



this sounds like a false awaking ( google it ) ...... But iv had lots of them and you just feel in a trance when they happen............. This one was real

how do you know you have them if you cant remember them?

Well...I remember reading that we all dream every night...and I sometimes remember my dreams. Usually, my dreams are of me running somewhere, and then realizing I forgot something and have to go back to where I left off. lol My dreams are so borrrring! :D

your bad at making decisions then ......... Running somewhere ( to a decision) then turning back to where you started ( not sure about your decision)

does this sound right ?

There's people call natural lucid dreamers ...... There just young children who have terrible nightmares and terrors but the only way they can rid there dreams of the monsters ( the kids are like 3 years old) is to change there dream( thought) into something nice .......... So basically they can control there dreams .... Naturally with out techniques,


im always on the look out for these special children and iv found a hand full ....... There very rare and are of great jealousy with the lucod dreamers who learnt from technique.

i found one about a year ago put she was still in the nightmare stage not being able to set her self free :(

i explained it to her and she was very distant about talking about it ......... The monster used to terrorize her , she decided in her dream ( not really realising she was lucid) to turn the tables on her monsters and become nice to them....... The monsters became nice back , but TOO nice and they started to rape her in her dreams .

she gave up thinking about her dreams because of this and it messed her life up , i helped her to understand it better and that the fear in your dreams is you !!! And you can change that fear with ease just like the natural kids do .

after a few month she has been flying lucidly in her dreams but there's always a stupid clown ( she explained ) trying to bring her back to a nightmare .

i told her to stand up to your fear of the clown and basically tell him to **** off ....... She did and it worked :)

the sad thing is with the monsters rapimg her ...... She is permanently scared :(

its a funny world and then some .



there's a night terror clinic in America which use this practice to cure the kids ......... Im a natural but it wasn't with nightmares ( i haven't found one like me yet). It just happened with me when i realized i was dreaming about 20 years ago .

all my childhood dreams before was my head in an empty space and a thought bubble with a butcher and a meat cleaver ..... I was never scared .

strange but true :)

Wait, let me spread the likes first.... Okay, done :)

I was able to control my dreams for a while. It was really weird. I could realize that this is such a dream so I can do whatever I want. Most of those were perverted haha :D At some point I tried to do some super powers like flying and becoming invisible. Some times I succeeded and some other times it just did'nt work.

I can't recall a similar feeling exactly, but I know for sure that I had times I confused reality with dreams. More than once I held back in making decisions because I felt the facts concerning it were dreams. Those kept me puzzled for a while, but my happy silly nature makes me forget about it an go on :)

how do you know you have them if you cant remember them?

I think that although we might forget my dreams, I still can tell that I had ones. Kinda like remembering the dream but not some parts of it, but in a larger scale where those parts we cannot remember actually are the collection of the whole dream... I guess! I do more than once wake up having a dream but completely forgetting what it was about.

Well... You could say I was "touched." :flushed:

I guess those dreams are the best... if we're the ones doing the touching :p

Ehm :flushed:

I rarely remember my dreams. :(

Believe me, some dreams are better not remembered. Besides, dreams are only good for when we're sleeping.

if you remember parts if your dream ....... This is the whole dream you experienced when asleep .

the whole dream is what you can recall in your memory ...... Its impossible to forget a dream , if you cant remember it .... You didn't have one :)

if you only remember blurry bits of your dream ....... Then you had a blurry dream :)

Okay, how about this case scenario: you have a dreams, remember it after you wake up for some time, then the next day you forget the dream. Oops, now a dream you had magically became a dream you didn't have because you forgot it the next day :D

You can get hypnotized to remember things you've forgotten .


the problem with dreams is ..... You cant prove you had one if you cant remember it.
