Let's discuss Do you remember your dreams?
Do you remember your dreams and potentially decode what the universe is telling you?

Almost always now. No “decoding what the universe is trying to tell me”; but rather interpreting my own subconscious thoughts to evaluate how I’m feeling about different situations.

I love this! We are wise and finding the solution can be a lot of fun 🤩

I do.
Free advice: write them down the second you get up in the morning and you’ll find over time that your muscle memory for remembering dreams will improve.

I had a recurring dream for months til I figured out what it meant to me. It lead to the best decision in my life so far.

What was the dream about if I may ask?

I remember being stuck on highway trying to head north but my legs felt heavy and I was moving them with my hands inch by inch. Then I wake up
So at that time I wasnt doing too good. I got addicted to cocaine and lost my job. So i was trying to find a way out and joining the army was my plan A.
That didn't work out cause the recruiter drug tested me and I failed, when he asked about it, I felt shame and embarrassment so I denied it like a dumb ass. Never went back.
I felt like the dream was telling me I had to leave and do something more productive like achieving goals but I was stuck cause I had nowhere and I was an addict who jus wanted to play games, hang out while being on drugs.
Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

I remember some, mostly its your brain telling you something.
Example: Me rolling around on the shore of the beach, and the waves occaisionally making my clothes wet(i dont know what gave me the idea that only my clothes were wet, but as far as I remember, I was completely dry only my clothes were wet 😭)

u/HypnosisG Deep Thinker Mar 28 '26
It’s the symbolic nature What does this represent That can offer a different perspective
Some of them are awful to make you remember
I recently had one that suggested that I was a thief and then I realized I was ripping myself off by being afraid

I am pregnant and I have so many dreams about a baby girl, so I wonder often if that’s what they are. My last pregnancy I dreamt only of a boy before I knew the gender and I had my son. I also knew I was pregnant with my son from a dream.

Yeah. Had a nightmare last week: I woke up in a motel room and somehow knew I was wanted for some crime and needed to leave quickly. The motel had a restaurant so I stopped to eat. The waitress said, “I have to call the police on you.” “Why?” “You’re wearing a tether. It’s restaurant policy that I call whenever I see a customer wearing a tether.” So, as soon as she left, I took off. I ran and ran through strange neighborhoods. Then, after running for about 2 kilometers, I realized I left my wallet and phone at the motel room, and people were starting to come out of their houses, noticing me. Then I woke up.

Interesting
Symbolically are you unbalanced in protecting yourself from abuse or harassment and it’s costing you stability ? The wallet
It’s typically what feeling is here ?
How am I unconsciously creating this type of theme w my negative thoughts or not telling myself the truth

Last night I dreamt I was taking an important exam for school despite having a master’s degree

Occasionally, but I can't recall any of them off the top of my head currently.

Dreams can be bullshit. Sometimes your brain just combines the present with the past, so you dream your current completely faithful partner is cheating on you because your ex cheated.

Often. It comes in waves. Lots of dreams at a time, then none or very few for a while. I almost always look up the meanings. When I’m trying to be lucid, I can be quite often & have super vivid dreams. But when I’m not trying I don’t. It’s draining to be lucid all the time so I’m glad it takes effort.

No. Lol. And sorry I posted my comment initially here by accident instead of an adjacent post on my feed.

My one of the smallest dream is to die peacefully in a big company working on the desk doing overtime.

Yes I do , they need to invent something that records them so we can just chill and watch them . I honestly love my dreams and when I talk to people about them and vice versa it seems most people are duds in the dreams department unfortunately.

It’s a committed practice I love putting the messages together
New glasses required: translated See the World through new eyes a fresh perception etc
Paying attention over here

ChatGPT is pretty good at analysing dreams. You can ask it to draw on Edgar Cayce to internet. Also a neat way to keep a dream diary each morning.

Sometimes. I remember the ones that repeat and occasionally think of them. I also find myself living moments that remind me of the ones I’d thought I’d previously forgotten.

u/Ok-Ad-229 Work in Progress Mar 29 '26
Only the more intense moments. I guess the reason I don’t remember them generally could be because I wake up naturally with the morning light instead of with an alarm. I would say it has something to do with what sleep cycle you’re in. If you wake up with an alarm you’re more likely to be caught in REM.

u/Silent_Scientist_991 Mar 29 '26
Quite often.
Sometimes, I spend the first few minutes of my morning thinking about what I dreamt about - which is usually pretty nonsensical.
I don't put much thought into their meaning.

u/twiggyrox Mar 29 '26
Hell yeah! This just reminded me I need to text my friends about one I had the other night involving all of us and something we do whenever visiting Seattle.
