moved to stuff, since it starts by discussing dreams in general (lucid removed from title)
This is my first post so i hope its good.
I have only experianced a couple of LDs so far but latley I have been giving it alot of thought. These thoughts are mostly about what is going on in dreams in general. For example how are we able to dream about stuff that will happen in the future. I am wondering what other people think about this topic.
I dont think i made this clear but you can post your own theorys here.
Precognitive Dreams are quite interesting indeed. Being able to perceive events in the future through Lucid Dreams would be amazing. Of course, whether or not this is possible is yet to be determined.
On the topic of ESP dream phenomena, have you ever heard of Shared Dreaming? It’s when you and another party experience the same thing in a dream, and there is a group of people here called the Chroniclers dedicated to having a Shared Dream.
This is quite a cool topic that should be in Beyond Dreaming.
You made me remember somthing I had wanted to mention in my topic. My second LD was about two days ago (about the time I looked up this site). In that dream I remember I had met someone. This person was not like the others and we had an actuall conversation. Somtime in that conversation they had told me that I was having a LD. They led me to believe they where real and it was a shaired dream but it ccould have been a DC.
I have it. I think I just discovered the best theory ever.
Dreams are the embody ment of our minds. Our dream bodies are how we see ourselfs. Which means that to change our dream forms we aare actually changing how we see us. The dream scapes is like a file dumsite in a videeo game. It is random information shoved together to create a world. Which means ( and this contradicts what I belive in) that we can alter our dreamscapes by just calling pieces of our thoughts, memorys, or any thing ells as long as it already exists.
The problem whith altering dreamscapes is that we try to create new things, which is working against our mind. But if we were to just resicle our thoghts and memorys we should be able to alter the dreamscape just fine.
I will try this tonight if any one ells does pleas PM me or just post it here.
The way dreamcultures think about dreams and their origins really got me thinking. From that I made my own theory which goes like this:
I think dreams are the language of the connection between our conscious mind, our subconscious and the creative source. So in this sense we get messages from our subconsciousness and from the creative source in the form of symbollics.
We get the messages in the form of symbollics because most of the time our conscious awereness isnt simply up to the task to comprehend the messages we get from our subconsciousness and the creative source. So if we think about the symbollic messages, which usually have lots of levels of understanding, we could comprehend the deeper meaning that exist in the messages of the subconsciousness and the creative source.
In my opinion the creative source is the all knowingness where there is only the now, so a past and present doesnt exist. In that way messages from the future could actually be the messages of the future given by the creative source.
Dreams are also a form of relaxation for the conscious mind, as we tend to restrict it a lot in our daily lives. In dreams we free our conscious mind and let it recharge from the daily activities. At the same time it gives our body the time to relax to and restore itself from our daily activities.
My theory is still in progress and is far away from being finished. For better understanding I tried to limit the human souls in three aspects which are better known in the western society. These are the conscious mind, the subconscious mind and the creative source. All of these could be replaced by many other terms and to stay in terms of psychology perhaps its better to replace the creative source with the super consciousness.
If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask.
Finally I would like to add that I’m very interested in the way you see dreams and think about dreaming in general.
If people really can predict the future doing dreams than it must be their subconscious somehow knowing what will happen. I’m not sure how they could predict the future. The only explanation I have is: God.
I believe that it is kind of astral thing.
Your spirit leaves your body and goes to a type of astral realm.
I once had a dream were a blind woman told me that I was in fact in th land of the dead. I told her that I was dreaming and she said that I was just visiting then.
