What did you dream about last night?

@DanielChristensen oh yes. If I focus on lucid dreaming before I go to sleep, I usually can with no problem. I lose control off and on throughout the dreams though.

@dumpstermeow My cousin told me he would record audio tapes of him speaking, to create lucid dreams where he could explore the homes of potential victims for burglaries. Sounded like horseshit to me, but who knows

@DanielChristensen I don't think your unconscious mind can see into another person's home unless you've been there before.

hmm ok. I understand what you are saying.

But i must say that is wasn't 'created' by me. I have had supernatural experiences since i was about 19, so in my situation, i can sometimes say it's that (for example if it happens when I am wide awake, other times, it's a dream.

@thinkbigaboutlife That's interesting, but doesn't sound enjoyable

lol. yeah, you're right.

@Some1Else That's interesting. Lots of detal.

I very often have repeated themes with small variations. Probably because I often recall some of my dreams with at least a bit of detail, that I notice the patterns.

@DanielChristensen there's I guess an unnamed "desired person" in the dreams (the one in the pool I cannot get to) someone to speak to

@Some1Else For years I would dream of my ex girlfriend in such a way. Driving down streets with no road signs, searching. Walking halls, hearing her behind some door, I don't know which, all locked

@SW-User Nice

@DanielChristensen Pleasant.

@Some1Else Absolutely it was an amazing dream. Sometimes I don't ever want to wake. Dreams are so mysterious. They say there is a lot of symbolism. I've had a lifetime experiencing science fiction and am a writer.

@DanielChristensen Same... Except no discipline to write.

@Some1Else I wrote a quasi fiction story recently and posted it after my electronic copyright came through. It was a wonderful experience, to be so focused and full of inspiration, for such a long period. Now that it is done, I feel sort of blah, like, what's next

@Cannelle Hm I wonder what rabbits represent. They multiply fruitfully, are cute.

According to various websites they represent Luck, success and magical power. Also, abundance, warmth and, of course, fertility.@DanielChristensen

@Cannelle Perhaps it's time to drop "Papillon" and put "Leporidae"?

@Some1Else That does sound like a cool idea. I wrote my first story in a while recently. I've had lots of these science fiction type dreams, but when I sit down to flush it out, I tend to get lost.

@DanielChristensen load a voice memo app on you phone or text speak

@Peaches The dreamt felt anxious and lonely. I was in a hurry to make my way there, then I arrive and there are no people left. The cafe part was the best bit though.

@DanielChristensen Dreams are so fascinating!🌜🌟Wonder what it meant that you were so anxious?🤔

@Peaches I think it's like that girl said below, feeling like I will miss my chance

@DanielChristensen I'm familiar with lucid dreams, I'm jelly, bro.

@Elegy I had a period where I was having lots, then massive long dry spells. I wonder what was up during that time. Maybe something chemically in my brain was sorting itself. There are a lot of theories about bipolar disorder, but misfiring brain chemistry seems a likely cause to me, if only one among others.

@DanielChristensen Could also have been stress or tension. When not dealt with appropriately they can make themselves known in odd places.

@SW-User That sucks. Recall any dreams from previous occasions?

@DanielChristensen Can't remember any

@DanielChristensen a lot of times I do...sometimes have vivid colorful dreams of things before they happen...sometimes it's just silly stuff or if it's a nightmare it's heartburn or asthma (which I haven't had in a long while now)....every once in a while I'll have a dream where I'm still at a job that I've left trying to get things done and lagging behind badly (out of the groove with things now that I've retired).

@cherokeepatti I'm glad I never dream of moving furniture or working in an office.

@DanielChristensen I've dreamed of digging huge holes and then filling them up and digging more....symbolic of periods of my life where my wheels were turning but I was going nowhere, had to make some life changes.

@SagePoet It might very well have been my friend.

@ButchersGeneral So you hunt in real life?

@SW-User :( *hugs*

@Scribbles Yus. Got a dream for us?

@DanielChristensen Sure. Other then dreams about work worries, I recently dreamed that I moved to a warmer climate and was living in an apartment that was part of a complex in which several apartments share a courtyard next to a parking lot. It was dark and I was walking from my apartment across the courtyard which seemed to have stretched larger. Suddenly everybody outside or looking out the window turns and looks at me and then away when this creepy neighbor opens his door and shouts an order to his 3-4 dogs (very large and snarling), and they chase me. Eventually I kick at one of the dogs, and the other jumps at me to bite me and I wake up.

It was weird, because normally I don't get chased in dreams.

I also had a dream where I was on vacation, and everywhere I went the tourguides were really crappy and didn't seem to know anything, or seemed to be making up the dumbest stories, and that in these old monasteries were weird relics of monks body parts that would either kill you instantly or grant you a wish. lol

@Scribbles Wow its cool how much detail you remember. Those were interesting.

@DanielChristensen snakes ...weird creatures ..my old home ....childhood 😕

@TechniCoIorBroccoli Snakes damn. I have experienced the other ones though. I have a recurring dream where I am walking along rail tracks, through a wilderness, where feral dogs, wolves, hyenas or lions are tracking me.

@DanielChristensen scary ..

@SW-User Any that have adhered to memory? Recurring themes?
