Dreams-weird thing that happens

[Miss Peregrine]

Does this happen to anyone else?

 

Many times when I have dreams, part of the dream is referencing or recalling another dream.

 

For example, in last night's dream Dh told me that he was going to play on Softball team with some people from work. I got mad because the last experience with that ended badly. I reminded him of it as I saw scenes from the last time he was on a team.

 

But he was never on a team and the scenes were actually from another dream I had years ago.:eek:

 

Am I just weirder than I already knew I was? :D

[Serendipity]

You're not alone! :) I deam this way all the time. "History" from my previous dreams influences my current dream. The other thing about when I dream is that I am aware that I'm dreaming and I can often change details of the dream situation.

Yeah, you're pretty weird. ;)

 

How about this - I'll have the same dream, over and over and over for something like 5-6 years. Then, it just stops. I don't dream for awhile. Then a new dream starts up, and other than a few minor variations, I'll have that dream for years.

 

And now I've noticed that some of the themes are similiar and intertwining. Apparently it takes me a *really long time* to listen to my subconscious.

Me too on the weird dreams. When I was a kid, I used to have this same dream every summer! It was freaky. And then, I promise you, that I had one that just before I woke up flashed "To Be Continued". And the next night IT DID! So I am with you on that front!

Add me to the weird dreamer club. Lucid dreamer....that is where you are aware you are dreaming and can sometimes change the direction of the dream. Very cool.

I'm a very vivid dreamer, almost always remembering my dreams and occasionally lucid dreaming. One of my constants is that I have a whole series of "dream houses"--not like I want to live there, but different homes that appear in my dreams. I can map out many of them--the weird apartment on the second floor, the four-storey courtyard based home belonging to my parents, the three storey home with the huge backyard--but none of them are real. I'll have dreams set in the same house and "remember" being it in before.

 

My dh doesn't ever remember his dreams, but I like to recount my very vivid ones every morning. ;)
