I'm a dreamer. Always have been. What did you dream about last night?

    Never remember. I don't think I sleep long enough.

    I only remember the dream I had for a brief 10 minutes after hitting my snooze button for the 3rd time this morning.

    My dream was of me watering my indoor plants, only to see the pot was over flowing with water. I look up and see water was leaking from the 2nd floor. I go upstairs and a shower I never had before was leaking. My alarm woke me after that.

    What a nightmare THAT would be!! LOL! Thank god She Who Must Not Be Named never shows up in my dreams!

    Last night I dreamt that Trump was a valet in a parking lot, fetching my car for me and two girls...I know there was more, but I don't remember! Oddly, I was up going to the bathroom and remembered exactly what the rest of that dream was, but after sleeping another hour or so, I lost it mostly.

    Insightful, Trump (an official or judgement authority) as a figure that drives your purpose for getting from place to place. One question, what's your purpose?
    Bathroom represents getting rid of waste, choosing between the two girls in your car? Perhaps a choice ahead?

    Choosing between two girls in your car? Care to elaborate?

    Whoa, WHOA!! Let's not read too much into this! First of all, I didn't dream I went to the bathroom...I actually went to the bathroom. My purpose was to sleep. Trump showing up in my dream is just another nightmare.

    As far as the two girls in my car? I've always had large appetites...I hope at least one of them remembered to bring sangwiches...

    I was a part of some weird crew and got into an argument with the leader and we had a sword fight. I don't really remember who won

    Sex. Sex.... and more sexxx.... dry spells suck.

    A frequent theme for me as well, but I always wake up at exactly the wrong moment!

    My dry spell has gone on for so long, I quit dreaming about sex. That's pretty *kitten* bad.

    edited for corrective spelling.

    It involved a castle, Hugo Weaving, and trying to save people from a dragon that seemed to possess the powers of Martian Manhunter. And then something about laundry, but it's already fading away....

    In! I try to practice lucid dreaming...and when it works, it's awesome! Flying around. You can't beat it with a stick.

    No luck last night, though. I went to bed sort of late.

    It only works for me maybe 4-5 times a year but it's an amazing altered state that I highly recommend you attain one day.

    Iv had this about maybe 4-5 times and it was amazing! Even when I'm awake I can re call the feeling actually makes you believe you are capable of flying lol

    Edit to add; how do you actually 'practice' lucid dreaming? All I did was fall asleep and the dream happened

    Yeah, it's really cool. When I lucid dream...I have the sensation of touch.

    I've also had lucid nightmares...which are extremely bad (meeting the Devil for example)...but most of the time it's just amazing.

    I understand how many people probably interpret that experience in a religious way or mystical way. Your mind is doing all kinds of interesting things even while you're asleep...for certain!

    Regarding "practice"...there's a couple of different ways. It's sort of like meditating I guess you would call it. You can lay on your bed and relax. Then imagine there is a rope which goes through your body. Pull on the rope.

    Sometimes...it works!

    You pulled yourself up. Then, it's a whole new world. You can do whatever you want. You'll feel, hear, touch...I'm not actually 100% about tasting...I don't think I've tried that.

    There are a number of tutorials online about lucid dreaming. You can try it when you are first going to sleep. You can try it if you wake up from sleep and return to sleep. IMO, "astral projection" is lucid dreaming...it's an altered state of consciousness. You're not actually leaving your body...you're not going to discover any impossible knowledge...but, it's really fun, and it does happen.

    I think this experience is how people probably meet angels and aliens and so on...it feels very real. As real as it gets.

    So, if you go become a psychonaut...just keep in mind your "youtube teachers" could have 100% valid techniques for helping you induce this experience...but they might personally be very confused about what is happening when it occurs so they have a particular...well, whatever you call being weird on the internet is.

    I sometimes have several dreams in one night, if I manage to remember them all

    In one of them my boyfriend had convinced me that he was no longer smoking - he barely smokes - but for some reason he was convincing me he was no longer smoking. I lived next door to him for some reason and then I spotted him from my kitchen outside his house smoking and we got in a huge argument about it. Woke up and thought he was in a bad mood with me all because we had an argument in my dream that never even happened.

    Then one I had after that my older brother promised to drive me to a funeral - he doesn't drive, neither of us drive - and we ended up in this sort of run down town that didn't look anything like ours and I wanted to go into a Boots shop for some reason and then my nan ended up doing my makeup.

    now i want a movie based on that premise.

    If I could write down my dreams as soon as I woke up I'd have a career in Hollywood...

    I've actually completed program algorithms in dreams.

    Don't sell it short!

    I only remember a few mins of my dream last night but I dreamt about my coworker.. Kinda weird since he's super annoying and gets on my nerves. Were both in committed relationships but I dreamt that we were friends with benefits.

    I used to compose music in my sleep. I've always wondered if I could have captured it and listened later if it would have actually sounded as good as it did in the dream :tongue:
