5. Heart being broken, UNC but not, Halloween, journeying to tell Patch
a. This dream kind of had two parts to it. The first part I was out walking around Greeley at night with friends on apparently what was Halloween. People were jumping out trying to scare us left and right. All of the roads were abandoned of cars, but people had set up these elaborate Halloween scenes to scare us. On our way to running back home, it became light outside and we ended up stopping at a doctor’s office. Here this male doctor was being persistent that he listens to my heart. This was very weird to me, but eventually I allowed it and he proceeded to tell me what all doctors do “You heart sounds…different, I really suspect a possible murmur”, which I proceed with “Yes, I have a murmur, it is

This again, is not a signal dream I recorded, but rather a reoccurring presence. I even was very skeptical of putting this in because of the dreams and what occurs when this person is in them. This is the person I wrote about for disconnection. This person frequently turns up in my dreams and turns them into absolute nightmares. Many tears are shed on my end in my dreams when I see this person. I will often feel helpless and like I am running around in circles trying to get people to see what this person has done. In one dream we were at our sorority house and I was watching Raenah go up to every single member and try to get them on her side for our argument. In another dream she shows up at Red Robin and tries to sit with my boyfriend and myself and I have to tell the waiter that she is crazy and cannot sit with us. During our time at the restaurant the whole staff is on my side and makes her sit by herself. She keeps trying to talk to me but I have all the power and share some choice words with her. I also express how a restraining order is being written up so she seriously needs to leave me alone. A lot of yelling and me blowing up on her occurs in these

    My mother tells me that dreams are crossroads, not belonging to the mortal or spirit world. In dreams, the deceased can communicate with the living, tie up loose ends. The lost souls would be able to apologize for anything done wrong, be able to say “I love you” one last time, and even tell them where a certain large stack of money is hidden. The possibilities are infinite in Crossroad. Once anything that made the spirit feel fragmented arose, they were condemned to wander Crossroad in search of closure.…

    Grandpa Vern was a good man, he always played with my sister and I when we were little kids, and tuck us into bed when it's time for bed. My mother never likes it when my sisters and I spent time with grandpa Vern, because he would always talk about the war and how he almost died in a few battles. I guess that's how it all started. I started to have weird dreams when I was eight years old, the dream was mostly about a little homeless girl living in a big country called Azren. My dreams would always start about that little girl running or waking up from her dream, now I think about it the girl would wake up when I go to sleep.…

    Thank you for sharing this story. I don’t think it’s macabre to talk about the dead or spirits or dreams of spirits that linger. Dreams are amazing, or so I’ve always thought. There is real power in some of them. Others are probably a result of too much television and ice cream before bed, but that’s a whole ‘nother thing.…

    Dreams are an essential part of our sleep. They are a series of thoughts, images and sensations occurring in a person’s mind while they are asleep. Often when we have dreams whether good or bad and when we wake up it’s hard to remember what the dream was about. Scientists define dreams as hallucinatory images. According to Myers, REM dreams are “hallucinations of the sleeping mind and are vivid, emotional and bizarre, so vivid that we can confuse them with reality.”…

    Why Do Dreams Matter?

    It’s like the garbage disposal of psyche. Dreams are personal. Tragic or traumatic events can cause the person to have nightmares and the person can even have nightmares randomly. Scary but necessary we are churning through what holds us back. For example, it’s just like the movie “A nightmare on Elm Street” the only way for Nancy (the main character) to face Freddy and learn the truth is through her nightmares, scary but necessary.…

    Dreams allow us to relive an event or live a totally new and/or bizarre event. Psychologists can use a client's dreams to understand a person's needs and desires. This can assist the psychologist in helping and maybe even curing their client. Even though interpreting dreams won’t cure every client, I believe it can greatly assist them. Dreams are also sometimes referred to as the ‘window’ to our subconscious or unconscious mind.…

    Unconscious Mind Meaning

    • 424 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Dreams about the person you love are very clear, even though most dreams are not comprehensible to your conscience. The unconscious mind that produces your dreams uses a symbolic language in order to show you what is happening inside you and many things more. Why is this language so strange? Because you have inside you a terrible enemy: your primitive, wild side, that didn't evolve like your human side. In other words, the same way that you are a primate in many ways and you have an animal body, you have also an animal conscience.…

    a person sees in their dream, they can be interpreted to determine how a person is feeling emotionally; consequently, dreams can lead to significant discoveries of the psychological well-being of the dreamer. Since every person is a unique individual, assorted elements of a dream can have distinctive implications. Say a person dreamed of a single red heart. For one, it may seem to be a symbol of love. On the other hand, for another, it may seem to be a representation of an anger they may have towards affection.…
