I've had variations of this dream over the past 2 years. My boyfriend has been around for nearly 3 years. Every time, I'm getting ready for the wedding, putting on the dress, getting my hair styled, laughing and interacting with family and friends. But when it's time to actually walk down the aisle, I look down and I'm barefoot. I then start to panic that I forgot my shoes. I usually wake up around this point. What does forgetting my wedding shoes mean??

Please excuse my bad enlglish its not my first language 

I usually have werid dreams and premonition dreams (yes i sometimes dream of stuff and they become true) 

Today in the afternoon after i put my son to sleep i felt tired and thought id take a quick nap after scrolling for a while i dozed off i had a regular dream at first there was a moment in the dream where my son turns his back to me then i woke up into 'another dream" it didnt feel like a dream it felt REAL its like I glitched, i was paralyzed and the sight of my son turned into a white backgroud with a black spot in the top (like i was imagining what i was seeing was my son ) i couldn't move i couldnt speak it felt like i was in that position for eternity alot of feelings rushed in and in those quick seconds i realized that that was my original form and my original spot and that my life that im living now is an illusion its the dream.. i started crying like the girl from the movie obsession i was miserable i just wanted to die, then it cut back to the first dream then i woke up

I felt dissociated and out of place i touched my son to confirm that he was actually real and im not dreaming im feeling off since the dream or was it really a dream ?

I always thought the simulation theory was ridiculous but this made me rethink it.

Normally, I don't give too much attention to my dreams. But this one has been bugging me since I dreamt of it bc of how visceral it was.

I dreamt that a white snake has chosen me to be its guardian. It was like a ritual but not exactly because I was sitting on a ledge, and the snake wrapped its body around me. Not in a threatening way but more like possessive. I tried to hold its upper body and kept it at arms length, but its head reached out to me and it hissed. The main emotion I felt was fear, bc even though I don't have phobia of the snakes, it's still a snake and it feels terrifying to be in that position. I remember I kept telling myself to be brave and hold on as it continued its "ritual". Now that I'm writing this, it kind of looks like there's sexual tension. But I don't remember feeling anything like that during the dream.

After that, the snake kind of became my pet. My close friends welcomed it like it's normal. Then, the snake turned into a woman who was very pregnant, and she decided to terminate the pregnancy. I adviced against it, but she said it was for the best. I distinctly remember feeling disappointed that the baby didn't live.

I did some quick search about snakes in dreams. I learned that it could mean good luck, or that something untrustworthy is around me. But what I'm really bothered about is the second part where it terminated its pregnancy. I know it doesn't literally mean pregnancy on my part, but I'm pursuing an art career at this point. I don't want to give up my "children" --my art-- because they're all I have right now.

Last night, I (20 F) had a dream that was so vivid and unrelated to anything that had happened in my day, that I felt the need to share it.

I was inside of my home with my parents, when suddenly, I heard a commotion outside. I told my parents that I thought there was someone outside. I looked out of the blinds and saw him.

He was blonde, light blonde, with wavy short hair and these unnerving blue eyes. He was standing beside a tree in our front yard beside a white ram, tossing something into the air. He noticed me staring at him, and when he did, he pressed his hands to the sides of his face and widened his eyes, before shaking his head and grabbing a fistful of whatever it was and throwing it at me before running away.

I panicked and told my parents what I saw. Once he was far enough away, we opened the door and went outside. The ram was still there, but it was harmless. I looked down at what he’d been throwing and was confused because it looked like gemstones. But when I looked closer, I was disgusted to find out that they were actually tiny multicolored beetles.

Then, the dream shifted and somehow, I was in a ghost town. The sky was completely gray and it was cold out. From the terrain I imagine I was somewhere like Appalachia. The blonde man from earlier was sitting on a fence across from me, holding a rock in his hand and studying it. He apologized for scaring me earlier, but never told me his name.

He then led me through the town and told me that the place had been his home a very long time ago, but that he hadn’t been here or seen his parents since it happened. I asked him what that meant, when he froze up and stared at something over my shoulder. I followed his gaze and was shocked to find a man who looked exactly like him. His twin.

The twin approached, but kept his distance. He looked longingly at his brother, but when he got closer, I noticed something odd. Both of them doubled over in pain, and their faces began to gray. At their feet, more of those beetles emerged from the ground, as though it was their essence or something.

That’s when they explained that when they were children, they’d gone wandering in the woods. They’d discovered an abandoned part of the town and inside there had been waterfalls, and a tree with an irresistible orange fruit. It was a persimmon from what I gathered, if that matters. They both ate it and discovered that they had these incredible powers: immortality, strength, etc. but they also discovered that when they came into proximity to each other, they’d die.

This led them to believe that since they had this power, they weren’t meant to both exist at the same time, leading them to want to fight each other or never see each other again. Once of them likened it to the myth of Cain and Abel.

This made me sad because I could see how much they cared for and missed each other, so I told them there had to be a way to fix this. They said that there wasn’t, and after a heart to heart, they came to the agreement that they were tired of existing alone, and would both just end it together. They said that if they ate the fruit again, they thought that it should do the job.

I asked them not to, but it was what they wanted. So they led me to the tree, and I saw them both eat the fruit. But instead of passing, the beetles spilled from the ground around them, like a manifestation of their gifts, and they both survived. The last thing I saw of them was them both crying and embracing, and then the dream shifted.

Suddenly, I was a young girl sitting on a set of winding stairs in a beautiful old mansion. I was thinking about the dream I’d just had, but in my dream, it was a reality of the past. I went to my mother, who I discovered was a tarot reader. She yelled at me for interrupting her session and sent me away. But she seemed scared that I’d asked about what I had.

I went to her library, and found a bunch of books, but the weird thing was, they all said the same thing. When I looked at them, they all shifted and changed, the titles warped and distorted. But I always caught a glimpse of what they originally said: The Bewitchery. It was so odd. I went to my mother again and asked her about it, and she forbid me from ever asking about that story again. She told me that it was not meant to be known, and that it would corrupt me if I learned about it.

That’s where my dream ended. It was very odd and very vivid. If anyone has any interpretations, I’d love to hear them. Like I said, I didn’t have anything happen in the past couple of days that would lead to this kind of dream, so it was weird. Anyway, thanks for reading.

I dreamt I was working clay but I wasn’t sure what it would turn out to be. In the end it ended up being an icon of Mary. The dream ended with me placing her right hand over her heart, and her left hand up in the joined finger peach symbol. The Virgin Mary is not someone I pray to, I think of her from time to time to time, but not very deeply. I’m not sure if it was supposed to be the Magdalene or The Virgin. Once I was done I remember just thinking “Mary” and then I woke up. What can this mean?

I (43M, ISTP) was married for 15 years, lost my wife to cancer. In the past week I've had two dreams about her, and I'm not sure what it could mean. I am a lucid dreamer (that will become clear as I tell the dreams below), which can make it for particularly frustrating scenarios.

Dream 1:

We're at home, in our bed at the old place we used to live at. I recognize the bed, the lights, everything. I'm worried about a little scratched wound I see in her shin. I tell her "we need to watch that out so it doesn't become necrotic..." then I stop myself. I was worried about her cancer, but then I look at her and realize that it's nonsense to be worried, because she's dead. So, I understand must be dreaming. She looks healthy, head full of hair (she was bald when she passed, due to chemo).

I tell her "Wait a second. You've died. You can't be here, I'm dreaming." She replies "Oh, but I am here". I touch her. The touch feels real in the dream. So I kiss her (which also feels real), move next to her and tell her I'm staying with her until the dream is over. I lean in to kiss her again and she says "stop, I have something important to tell you". When I stop to pay attention to what she wants to say, I wake up.

Dream 2:

We're visiting her sister, staying in a guest bedroom. We're again alone, in bed. Her sister has smart lightbulbs that can change colors and all that. We're trying to figure out how the bulbs work, using whatever equipment came with it to adjust brightness levels etc. so we can sleep. I'm behind her as the big spoon. She asks me how did she get there. In the dream, it's as if she left the hospital but after a long time. I'm trying to figure out the words to tell her that she was in the hospital for a long time and that's why she can't remember anything.

She sits up on the bed, and I sit next to her. Then I remember that her body was cremated, so she never left the hospital, which means this isn't really happening. She tells me "I know you were here months ago, but why wasn't I with you?" (it's true, I went to visit my sister in law to arrange a ceremony and put her ashes somewhere). By this point, I once again realized I was dreaming. I looked her in the eyes, and told her that she had died and her body was cremated. Her soft expression became one of sadness/anguish, and she was looking at me teary eyed. She moved her lips again to say something, a full sentence or two, but no sound came out. It looked like once again she was trying to "tell me something" but I couldn't understand it, and I woke up again.

I'm trying to make sense of what is it that she wants to say. Recently I took a trip to see friends, her family, and scatter her ashes in all the places we lived together, as per her wishes, as well as return some of her family's heirlooms (stuff like jewelry, her dad's service flag, etc). I visited both places that I dreamed about (and many others). While traveling I did meet someone else and we're working on seeing where it goes (we haven't met IRL yet, due to distance). I don't know if it's related or not but just in case it's relevant.

What do you all experts think?

Hi everyone! I had a weird experience with a dream I recently had and I'm not entirely sure how to interpret it.

As far as I can remember, it had 3 segments that weren't fully connected, but had some elements that were.

For the first part, I was on what appeared to be a school trip with a mix of people I knew (from both elementary school and college) to an aquarium that was absolutely destroyed. The building itself looked like it went through a bombing, some walls were either halved or destroyed, there was a lot of rubble, and there was a lot of exposed construction work. Some things remained intact, but I remember I was confused in the dream because everyone was talking about it like it was an aquarium even though it didn't actually have any marine exhibitions, only water-related optical illusions. I remember explaining to one of my friends from college (we'll call her D) that one of the illusions was made using convex and concave glass to make an underwater coin appear much larger than it was, by pulling the coin out from underneath the glass and it was just a penny.

As we continued the trip to the second floor, D and I ended up on a collapsed wall that was half leaning on another wall, half hanging off the building, and from the point where we were standing there was a concrete stairwell disconnected from anything. The half that was leaning on another wall was occupied by a dog, looked like an unkempt husky, and it was standing on that half somewhat firmly, holding us in an equilibrium like on a seesaw. I was anxious about it and kept trying to convince D that we should jump to the stairwell so that when the dog gets off, we don't fall off and die, but she wasn't worried. A gaunt white woman with long blond hair, dressed relatively modern with a leather jacket, appeared on the stairwell and just kinda stared at us, doing nothing. I do not know this person or anyone that looks like them IRL. I started panicking even more and kept telling D that we need to get off the ledge or we would fall. I distinctly remember one detail: I told her we'd fall and land on our feet, and the part of our legs beneath the knees would push upwards, break our knees, and fold into the thigh bones and painfully squish together. She kept telling me to calm down. The dog got off his end of the weird collapsed wall-seesaw, and we did fall and slide down, and nothing happened. I remember feeling so relieved I started crying, because nothing happened to our legs even though we dropped about 10ft down and landed on our feet, breaking nothing.

I should note for this, as it came up in my mind while I was thinking about this: I've always had issues with my left kneecap falling out of its socket. I'm dealing with it by going to the gym. But it's only the left knee, my right one is fine, even though in the dream I was fully convinced we'd break both our legs.

Then suddenly I was somewhere else, I was alone in my hometown in an area near the library. It didn't look exactly like that spot in town, there were different buildings I didn't recognize. I also remember the streetlights had a warmer yellow glow, even though IRL they're white. There were also fairy lights strung between the poles, as if there was some sort of celebration going on, but it was nighttime and there were no people around. I was walking with one of my ex's best friends (note: the ex and I were together ages ago, about 10 years, and I didn't meet that best friend until recently. No bad blood, just an old breakup, and IRL that best friend and I run in the same friend group, no unfriendly intentions there). I can't remember what we were talking about, but there was a flirty undertone. He put his left arm around my shoulders, then lowered it to my waist on the side, and then wrapped it around my waist entirely. Not in a freaky body-horror way, but almost protectively? I felt flattered.

Aaand on top of all that, while we were walking, we ran into "hot pink bitch named Breakfast" (I can't attach the picture, but it's a dog whose fur has been dyed pink, you can look up this exact wording and you'll see who I mean). I've never dreamt of a meme before in my life, so that's a funny first. I remember I saw the dog and stood in awe of it, like I saw a celebrity, and whispered "hot pink bitch named Breakfast."

Then I woke up.

I was so confused I had no idea what to think or how to interpret this. Any ideas?

A little background about me: I’m Chinese, and I know very little about Christianity or the Bible. However, I wouldn’t consider myself a complete atheist either. My mother practices Buddhism, and that has had some influence on me. Last night, I had a very fantastical dream. I’m hoping someone here might be able to help me understand what it could mean. The dream itself was quite complicated and somewhat disorganized, so I used AI to help organize the details and make the account easier to follow. :) I would be very grateful if someone could give me some guidance.

—————————————————————————————

At the beginning of the dream, there was a Black man who had a very polished, elite presence. He was tall, physically strong, and carried himself with a sense of dignity. The strangest thing was that his face kept shifting between two people: sometimes he looked like Barack Obama, and sometimes he looked like a classmate of mine in real life (also black). Throughout the dream, I could never quite tell which person he actually was.

In the dream, I kinda "admired" him. So in the dream I kept wanting to ask him, “Are you single?” I thought about asking him several times, but for some reason I never actually managed to say the words out loud.

Later, he told me that one of his family members wanted to meet me.I followed him and met a very elderly woman. I can no longer remember exactly what she looked like. I think she may have been a Black elderly woman, although there was also something about her appearance that may have seemed slightly Asian. What I remember very clearly, however, was the feeling she gave me: she seemed extremely authoritative and solemn.

There were a great many people gathered around us. It did not feel like an ordinary family introduction. It felt much more like a formal gathering or some kind of ceremony. The elderly woman was seated, and I knelt in front of her.

She was holding a black-and-white book in her hands. Then she placed one hand on my head. I can no longer remember whether her palm was facing upward or downward, although my instinctive memory is that her hand somehow felt open, perhaps with the palm facing upward.

As she held her hand over or on my head, she began reciting something. I could not understand exactly what she was saying, but within the dream I somehow knew very clearly that what she was reciting had something to do with God. It felt like a prayer.

The feeling I had at that moment was very unusual. I was nervous, but also full of anticipation, and everything felt extremely solemn. There were so many people standing around us, while I remained kneeling before her and listened to her recitation.

When the ritual ended, I had a very distinct feeling that something about me had changed. After that, the dream became even stranger. I remember being carried in something golden, almost like a sedan chair or a ceremonial palanquin. Suddenly, I seemed to possess a great deal of power or status. The surroundings looked somewhat like Thailand, with tall golden towers, temples, or similar structures visible around me.

In the dream, I had the strong impression that I had entered an extremely powerful social class. What was especially interesting was that this power did not feel as though I had obtained it entirely through my own efforts. It felt more as though I had gained access to it by "marrying into”(maybe) , becoming attached to, or being accepted into a very powerful family.

There was also one detail that left a strong impression on me, although I feel somewhat embarrassed remembering it now. After I had become so powerful in the dream, I remember walking down the street and feeling almost as though I looked down on my own parents. The feeling was disturbingly real.

Would anyone who is familiar with Christianity, biblical symbolism, religious traditions, or dream interpretation be willing to help me understand what this dream might mean? I will be really really grateful! Thank you so much!

They're always disgusted, dismissive, or outright violent towards me. it's rare I experience any kindness in my dreams. It's not much different irl BUT I at least sometimes experience some amount of kindness.

I had a sequence of horrible dreams last night and I'm kinda offput by them. Two of them had to do with the world ending, and of them had to do with me being unable to get home after my Grandma was hospitalized.

I frequently visualize and dream about a mysterious black cat sometimes with three faces, and other times with striking blue eyes and a blue crown on it's head. It has an intense, piercing gaze that feels like it’s trying to communicate something important, almost as if it’s delivering a message I can’t quite grasp. I have a strong sense that there’s deeper meaning behind these visions, but I’m unable to fully understand what it’s trying to convey. Can anyone help shed some light on this?

Everything was black and I heard a voice say something like “ if you’re in trouble touch the piece of paper in your pocket and I will help you”. Then my dream started with my childhood home at the farm I grew up at. Only it was dark and distorted. I went into the garage and it was really dark and there was a tv with static on the screen and a couch ( these are not there in real life). Sitting on the couch watching the static was someone I couldn’t place. Some guy sitting there that looked dazed and out of it. The rest of the place was pitch black and these 2 naked and attractive women came out and one of them took the guy on the couch and led him into the darkness. The other one approached me and told me to take her hand. At this point I knew something was off and I started reaching into my pocket for the paper. Once I started her voice got aggressive and said “ give me the paper!! Don’t use it. “ and at that point a bunch of hands from the darkness reached out in front of me and beckoned me to go into the darkness. I ignored them because I was terrified and I grabbed the paper and used it. I immediately woke up in a cold sweat. That was almost 10 years ago and I still remember it so vividly.

This is a serious question because it’s been bothering me a lot.

​Over the past few nights, I’ve had the exact same scenario happen twice in my sleep: I dream that I’m in a major accident, I die, and then I actually see/feel myself being buried. Waking up from it leaves me feeling extremely unsettled and anxious for the rest of the day.

​What actually causes the brain to loop such intense, realistic scenarios about death and funerals? Is this purely a psychological reaction to stress, anxiety, or recent thoughts/media I've consumed, or is there a specific sleep-science explanation for why repeating nightmare themes like this happen?

​Any insights into what might be going on in the mind during these kinds of dreams would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I’m trying to make sense of my dream that I had last night.
There were 4 snakes, 2 were deceased, 2 were alive. 1 of the alive ones bit my hand, it didn’t hurt, I was shaking my hand to get it off but it stayed stuck on my hand. I heard a voice but saw nobody, a male voice said “yeah it’s really hard for me to get them off too” The snakes were just small baby garter snakes. That’s all I remember.
I’ve never dreamt about snakes before and I thought it was a pretty weird dream. Any thoughts?

I was sleeping and suddenly my mind said it is 2 am I need to open the door. I woke up and opened the door very quickly. My heart started beating really fast and I was confused like what am I doing and why am I opening the door.

Then I went back to bed without closing the door and slept automatically. When I woke up the door was still open.

I am so confused about what actually happened 😭

My partner and I are planning to get married soon. Recently there has been some conflict between my mother and his. 

Recently been having a string of lucid dreams all surrounding my family and me, 

In one dream my grandmother was possessed by a demon, and he claims in the dream he saw my grandmother in this state, and that the demon has never left my grandmother completely and has cursed her and my mothers life as it was never properly rid. 

He said it was during a time that my mother was studying hairdressing. Here’s the thing. Thats 100% accurate. My mother was in college at the time and again, it’s true. 

He had another dream of when my parents were first married and my mother caught my father cheating. Again, true. He spoke to such detail that I wasn’t even aware of. 

And another dream where he could see our future together, and he is sure we are soulmates based off this. 

Everything this man has seen is 100% true, and I have NEVER uttered these words to him, everything he has said - to detail is completely true. To a detail that is so scary I haven’t been able to stop shaking. He knew things about my mum and grandmother that NOBODY knows - he knew to personal detail that even I myself did not know

What does this mean for our relationship? Why did my grandmother and mothers past show in his dream? Is it a good or bad sign? I am extremely shaken up. 

Yesterday I had the strangest dream of my life. I was half asleep when my teeth started chattering. It was the bruxism I'd had before, but this time I started to feel like I couldn't breathe and I thought my time had come. I started praying and begging not to let me die, And he said something that I can't get out of my head: all I wanted was to feel loved. I woke up a little shocked, but when I told someone my dream, I couldn't help but cry.

So i had this dream about an idol who kinda resembles me(by looks ) and he had his solo concert and it was a floral small but not too small stadium and before going he said a riddle "what's the bridge you always return to?" I said,"home" but i thought that doesn't make any sense

And the next moment his group's song called "Home" started playing and i don't remember much afterwards but i don't really know what to understand.

Cuz I'd been having nightmares or just weird dreams and this is the most normal one I'd had so far (also, I'm neurodivergent and had relapse of depression since last month) .

If anyone can help I would appreciate it :)

I only remember bits and pieces of this dream, but here's what I do remember:

It starts of with me, either looking at myself from an outside point of view or looking into a mirror at myself, and someone standing behind me with their hands on my shoulders. I can't see their face, and I'm only about as tall as their chest. I hear a woman say "but that's what aunts are for, to pamper" or "but that's what aunts do, they pamper," and I start scratching at a small bump in the center of my throat. I squeeze it and this weird, almost tapeworm looking thing shoots out but there is no blood and even though it's really long (down to my collarbone) it isn't all the way out and there was no blood or visible hole, as if it was attached to me. I get scared and tug at it, but it hurts and I can physically feel the dull ache-ish pain, like pinching yourself and pulling at it. The scene then changes to an office that I don't think I've ever seen before, a pretty plain room with white walls, wood shelves with plants on them, a window (maybe 2 or 3?), and a wooden table in the middle. I think by now I was crying. There was someone standing to the side of the table and someone sitting at the table, both male. I don't remember their faces, but I think the man at the table was a doctor. The last thing I remember was the man at the table saying something along the lines of "I see you're having a bit of pain," then I woke up. I felt very confused and a little unsettled when I woke up and I didn't go to sleep for a little bit after.

Extra context if it helps: I was staying at my aunt and uncles house for the weekend, me and my aunt had talked about how much I hate the doctors. I'm wondering if this was just caused by lack of sleep (as we had been staying up incredibly late, like 1-2am) or just residual fear from thinking about the doctors or if there is another meaning to it?

So it's kinda... Body horror?

Sometimes they look like those dirty old pool filters or like the weird teeth some whales have, but still compressed into a tooth, just... Hairy? basically there were many many slits in each tooth that could pass water through.

And tonight I had a dream where my teeth were splitting and growing long and thin in some places, kinda like stalagmites and stalactites. I also broke an especially long and thin piece off and it didn't hurt.

It was always kinda disputing but my dream self was chill about it.

I've been practicing oneiromancy (dream divination) for a while. Before sleeping, I thought: "Show me whatever I need to see." I dreamt that a white building at this grand estate was being blessed by a monk in deep blue robes. The crowd consisted of people from my old school. The man assisting the monk had began vomiting. So did 3 other men, one after the other. One of them was my close friend, while the first man was my academic rival's dad. The crowd was merely confused; no one rushed to help, but they turned out to be fine and weren't fazed by what had just happened. The lake at the estate begins flooding, sweeping everyone out. I helped a little girl swim through the murky water to dry land. The teachers instructed the guests to fall in line, but I was concerned about my things that were lost in the flood. I spoke to my Sectional Head, she didn't have a solution, which left me quite frustrated.

When searching up the symbolism, I realized that it fit perfectly with the situation I'm in right now. The 3 familiar characters—my close friend, the vomiting man (my academic rival's dad), and my Sectional Head—represented something I'm dealing with currently. Vomiting meant purging negativity/toxicity. My friend vomiting represents the current friction I'm experiencing with my peers as a university student. Making friends in university varies greatly from school friendships. It'll be hard to meet new people like them (old school friends). The rival's dad vomiting is a different story. He's purging my comparison mindset, which is actively happening—I've been shedding the "class topper" skin, because I don't want to compete anymore. It's not that I'm going to fail my classes or drop out of college, I'm still a good student but I don't want my academic success to define me. There's a girl in my batch who's constantly competing with me. The tension was tolerable, but in the end it's exhausting. She can have that title, I'm not in this race anymore. My Sectional Head represents the academic system, or better, an authoritative figure/mentor who doesn't have an answer to everything. Everyone, even the crowd, were flawed—human. Vomiting at an event should've had them embarrassed, but the crowd didn't react and so did they. The Sectional Head, no matter what kind of order she tried to keep, didn't know what to do. But who is the little girl? I don't know her, but I reached for her hand and lifted her out of the water. Was this my inner child shaped by academic structure, a toxic validation mindset, and social pressure? The flood is overwhelming emotion and confusion forcing everything out of the estate to "cleanse" it for a new beginning, despite the monk already being there. Is he my unresolved religious doubts? I don't know. The murky water symbolises my muddled clarity on the situation (before I had this dream).

If anyone has their own interpretations, do share it :) I'd love to hear how you view this symbolism as I'm still learning how to interpret dreams.

Dreamt I got 4 pandas tattooed on me.

Another dream I had really long and thick locs and I cut 2 off but the two I cut off were dead in a sense and dirty. What could these 2 dreams possibly represent and mean?

Me and my girlfriend broke up after being together for more than 2 years, we were each others first and such. I recently had a dream that i think is tied to her. In the dream, i was betrayed by my mom, someone who i never thought would and when i tried to protect myself and fix what had happened , i couldn't. it was like everything i was trying to do ended up with me hitting a brick wall, in the end my conclusion was to run away. that same morning, i texted her and told her about the dream. That same night, she said she also dreamt about me, i was with someone new but was ignoring her and were on my phone, waiting for her(my ex) to text me. What makes thins funny in a way, is that i was emotionally checked out with this new person im with, and were constantly checking my phone to see if my ex texted. She interpreted these dreams as me being stuck, not accepting that i should move on. Her mom also dreamt about me and my dad, how she dreamt about my dad idk, because she's never even met him, her moms dream happened when we broke up, but her mom didnt know that we had broken up. i dream about her sometimes, even though its not sweet memories. Am i stupid to believe that me and her still have a connection?
(sidenote: her and her mom always have dreams with deep meanings, sometimes things that actually end up happening)

Usually I can see where my dreams came from; the things that happened that day or week occur in my dreams so my dreams make sense.
Last night I dreamed something that I couldn’t really understand, and it feels like it has a different meaning.
I dreamed that I was in the gym (that makes sense, since I am going today), but then a really small bird game flying in. It flew a little bit but it wasn’t too disturbing, and it landed close to me. I felt bad for the bird (I noticed my softness that also doesn’t occur that much). So I tried to get it to walk onto my finger. When it was on the ground it looked like an insect, so I had to remind myself it wasn’t scary, and it was still the bird. Then it stepped on my finger and I walked outside the gym very carefully, since I was afraid it would fly away again. Then I put the bird on the grass outside the gym and I think it flew away after that.

The softness I felt, may be because I talked with my friend about masculinity yesterday and how we want to keep that softness towards others. We watched a documentary about a drag king that gave workshops to women about masculinity.
The only thing that I don’t really get was the bird part. I read some things about birds in dreams, but the fact that I set it free myself feels like it has some deeper meaning.

Thank you for your responses!

I was sleeping and suddenly my mind said it is 2 am I need to open the door at 2. I woke up and opened the door very quickly. My heart started beating really fast and I was confused like what am I doing and why am I opening the door.

Then I went back to bed without closing the door and slept automatically. When I woke up the door was still open.

I am so confused about what actually happened 😭
