Dreams

[immortality]

We have some strange dreams, don't we? The night before last I dreamt that my hair was falling out in lumps when I combed it, then last night I dreamt that I couldn't sing in tune

What is the strangest dream you've ever had?

What is the strangest dream you've ever had?

I can't even write that. The two breasted chic in Total Recall is nothing compared to my strangest dream. Just a hint.

I have a lot of superviolent gory dreams where I'm killing people. Which is really strange because I can't even kill an insect in real life - in my dreams I'm a psychopath.

Once I dreamed that I went into a little store in Tijuana and robbed the shopkeeper, and after he gave me the money I cut his throat and I was all covered in blood and running from the police. Another one the police came to a house I lived in and were digging up the backyard and finding all these bodies, every time they dug one up I'd have a flashback of killing that person. Then another one took place at my dad's farm where I killed 2 surveyors with a crossbow and cut one of the heads off and was trying to hide it in my dad's house.

If I'm having dreams of a past life, no wonder karma is being such a b*tch to me in this one!

LOL, I'd think the 3-breasted one was more interesting

You see! And add some...

I've dreamed I won the jackpot on the casino and money was pouring out of the machine and I was for some reason trying to shove it in my pocket and then i woke up

I heard dreaming about hair or teeth falling out is related to stress? When your'll really stressed about something, these types of dreams pop up.

I looked it up because I have had those types of dreams too

Um, I thanked you AND added to your rrrrrep.

Sweet dreams, Chay. Really, I mean it!

Sometimes having gory dreams helps the 'real' frustrations that we have about life. Imo

My strangest dream is one that I have mentioned before, here in the forum. My co-worker had the exact same dream as mine about me, too.

The 'jail' that I thought I was going to, was a hospital, the same hospital that my co-worker also works at.

That hospital is where my husband Jim was rushed to.

(Long story, short)

I believe that we are guided by our angels and or passed loved ones. So, although I never remember my dreams, except for that one...I try and make sense of them, however odd they are.

Sometimes a 'jail' for example is considered a large institution as well is a hospital.

So to translate the dreams I need to reexamine what the main subject of the dream, could also mean.

Wow Chayton ....you scare me a little bit

When I run in my dreams I drop and run on all fours; not sure what that's all about lol

 

[chayton]

I have a hard time cutting up a chicken from the supermarket - if I actually had to kill something to eat I'd probably starve to death. Maybe my dreams mean I'm repressing my homicidal inner child too much?

Seriously though, that's not all I dream about - a couple weeks ago I dreamed that someone hacked into my casinomeister account and made all these comments that looked like machine translations all full of typos. THAT one woke me up in a cold sweat!

 

[azzagirt]

I love dream interpretations that are acurate for me. IMO they are a very significant guide as to how you are coping in life at the moment.. Not too seriously though..

My dreams do represent and translate just what I am feeling of late when they occur most of the time. I just love dreaming and am lucky enough to
dream all the time and in colour too.
My favourite dream is always when I can fly. All through my life I remember very favourably, from the first time I can remember experiencing this dream as young as 5 or 6.
It's a wonderful dream. It also has it's downside too! I dream that I am being chased by semi bad characters and I start running really fast then out come my arms (wings ) and they start to gain speed in the butterfly stroke like I was swimming ( not the normal bird flap type motion ) and away I go up, up and up and higher to where I can see them from above looking at me in disbelief. lol.
Sometimes I do it easy and sometimes it's a struggle but I always manage to soar and land somewhere much higher than they and sometimes count my lucky stars and feel phew! that was a close one ..Haha I love it and have it at least once or twice a year for the last 45 or so years..

To me it just means that I always manage to bounce back after any crap times in my life that come my way.... It's a comforting dream.
Some funny and bizzare dreams above..
Chayton, I would think your first one screams you are too passive...haha.... imo only. The total opposite of your dream ..

Usually I dream of mundane things. I grocery shop (and not always naked), watch TV, play bingo and even read. I have conversations with real people in my everyday life, so vivid sometimes I wake having to figure out if they did happen or not.

I dreamt once that the street outside was erupting, and cars were being tossed and big spurts of molten lava were coming out of the fissures. Got up and got dressed in the morning and walked to work, only to find out there had been a huge fire 1/2 block from my apartment in the other direction! Guess my mind was just trying to make sense of all the sirens.

For years I had a recurring dream where I followed this black cat down the side of a Victorian row house with a wooden gate. I opened the gate to follow the cat into the yard, and I end up running because some unseen and evil force is chasing me now.

It was no house I know in my town, and I know all of the city of that age. Several years later, I was wandering a neighbourhood in Toronto (not my hometown), and saw the house! I even walked up the side path and looked at the gate. I didn't try to enter, law abiding citizen I am. There was no black cat that afternoon.

But I never had that dream again.

Has anyone ever had one of those mundane dreams where you're just talking to people and going to the store or planning a birthday party or whatever and when you wake up you realize that all those people who were your family and friends in your dream were nobody you know in real life? I've had dreams where I have a husband and kids and a sister - none of which I have in real life. In one dream I was a nurse, which was not even close to anything I've ever done or wanted to do or thought of doing, and the people who played my parents and my friends are nobody I know in real life either. I always wake up from those kinda confused thinking, "I've just had someone else's dream again."

 

[immortality]

My strangest dream was when I dreamed that I was being shot at by someone I know, I was crying to the person saying 'what have I done?' then she shot me and I woke up crying

 

[immortality]

Also another dream that freaked me out was I had seen in my dream, my aunt who had passed away, she was picked council flowers in the middle of a town, her face was like a zombie's face

 

[Tirilej]

I rarily remember any dreams and I havn't had any special one the last 20 years either. I have had enough nightmares in my waken hours to be bothered with them in my dreams also I suppose

What I do remember was that when I was around 20 I had a lot of nightmares. I know people are saying that they are hunted or falling, but waking up before anything bad happens. I didn't
I died! I drowned, I hit the bottom, I got sliced. It was an awful period of my life and I have never tried to found out what those dreams ment.
These days I'm lucky if I can sleep a whole night so probably that's why I don't dream, or remember doing it.

I have no idea how true this is...... but I was once told that the 'Falling' dreams we experience are there for a reason. Sometimes the body enters such a deep deep sleep that your heart rate can drop to an almost dangerously low level. When you 'land' in a falling dream you often wake up briefly with a bit of a jump... then settle back to sleep. This is natures defibrillator, upping the ol heart rate and saving your life.....

As for my own strangest dream.... this has to date back a couple of decades at least but I still remember it....

I was on a houseboat, travelling very slowly down a canal in the countryside. The odd thing was that the 'house' in question was the White house. How the white house fit on a tiny canal boat I'm not sure, but hey... this was a dream.

The houseboat was under attack from either shore by loads of pygmy/Zulu warriors. Lots of spears and arrows whizzing past like that scene at the start of Indiana jones when he's escaping on the plane. Helping me to defend the 'whitehouseboat' from this onslaught was the entire original cast of the Muppets. Fonzie had a machine gun.

I dont recall how it ended. I should refrain from eating cheese close to bedtime.

I rarely remember dreams these days... and they're rather ordinary when I do...

However, when I was younger.... up until my early twenties, I'd have a (very vivid) recurring dream. I was wearing a pink dress (an Alice in Wonderland type thing) and I was being chased by a huge colorful toucan flying after me - it had these horrible razor sharp teeth, with drool dripping from his mouth. And it made this horrible 'nails on a chalkboard' type sound. I would be running down a dirt (chert, actually - look it up LOL) country road which had puddles and huge cavernous holes in it. As I ran down the road, the holes got larger and closer and closer together till, at the end, there was no road, only huge black gaping holes with mere slivers of dirt between them. So I slip off one of the little edges and fall into one.... and fall ... and fall.... always awoke in a cold gasping sweat.

Still gives me the creeps.... And why a toucan?? I live in alabama... the most exotic birds we have around here are pet parakeets... weird...

Now. This is the really strange part. The last time I had this dream.... after I fell into the gaping hole, I thought to myself (while falling LOL) 'this is that stupid dream again and since it's my dream, I can change it'. Rather than continuing to fall, I sailed up out of the hole into the air flying above the road and the horrible bird and then I woke up. I never had the dream again.

I had a Planet of the Apes dream once. Don't remember much but the setting was a huge meadow with lush green grass. Looking forward was a small mountain (or big hill) with dense woods. Very peaceful.

All of a sudden from the forest about 100 soldier apes on horses comes charging at me and whoever I was with. We starting running away and I woke up. Funny thing is I can still remember the terror from those damn apes!

 

[chayton]

When I was a kid I used to dream about bears a lot. We lived out in the boonies so we actually had lots of bears around, and I was terrified of them (especially after seeing the movie 'Grizzly') But in my dreams there would be like a gang of bears, maybe 4 or 5 of them, they'd come in and kill everyone except me, I'd run off and hide somewhere, usually under a bed - and when the bears thought that all the people were dead, they stood up on their back legs and started talking to each other and acting like human thugs! They weren't speaking english so I don't know what they were saying, just that it was ever more important they didn't find me because now I knew their secret.

You mean "those DAMN DIRTY apes!"
