Dreams (general)

[Ja'k Dawsiin]

have you ever had a dream that you were so sure was real? what if you could not wake from that dream? how would you know the dream world from the real world?!

I keep having this reoccurring dream where the Na'vi are technologically more advanced and invade Earth. All the same characters as in the movie are present except they're larger. They're about 15' - 20' tall and come in enormous spacecraft. They round the humans up as slaves, but I'm more fortunate. Neytiri decides she wants to keep me as her pet. And I like it... lol

That sounds like you're mixing Avatar up with something significantly less G-rated.

Not that some fans would mind.

From the response here and elsewhere on the interwebs, I think we could've got into the Na'vi's good boks just by selling them porn.

James Cameron helped me realize some things about myself that I didn't know...

i tend to get.. weird dreams. like, a couple of nights ago one involved a flying bus being driven by bert and ernie over what i think might have been pandora, and i was on it shouting "no go back the yellow question mark is a quest marker i need to turn in my quest"

there was also one that involved my grandparent's house. like, i'm walking from the hallway to the kitchen, and i look into the family room/den and wait what is rock lee from naruto doing in there. then i continue through the kitchen out the front door and.

there's na'vi everywhere. they're all just staring at this thing next to the house. it's big and it's glowing and everything is bathed in silver light, like a full moon. as soon as they see me they scatter like jackrabbits into the fields. i decide to chase them, but i'm not fast enough so i tell myself "i am a rabbit" and i instantly have rabbit legs and am moonjumping after them.

Over the years I've had a reoccurring dream about a very extravagant multi-story library. Well, I just found photos of it.





This is the exact library from my dream, but in my dream it was part of a school I was attending and I would often go to the library to obtain material for my studies. Here's the crazy part... The library in these photos is located in Prague and is part of a university that was established in 1347. It's now part of the Czech National Library.

Weird!

Now that's a beautiful library. Do you know what you were studying in your dream?

[Na'vi a Kepekmì]

The library is a giant work of art.

Now that you mention it... I'm actually not able to remember exactly what I was studying or what books I was looking for. I can just almost make out the name of the book, but I can't read the letters. It kind of looks like cursive or something. A good clue could be that I'm usually on the second story as seen in the second image. In my dream the library is basically a short cut scene. I can remember very well walking down the hall and going into it as seen in the first image. One minute I'm doing something, the next minute I'm walking down the hall to the library, and then I'm off to something else. The before and after are sometimes different, but the library is always the same.

Yes it is and I'm glad I found photos of it.

err... it could be a good idea actually... In a Community Support subforum maybe? people have to deal with death quite often, they share it & need support - your experience may help.

Now back to dreams:

A week before my father was admitted to the hospital I had a dream ... ...the dream came out of nowhere. I only found about him being admitted to the hospital in critical condition through Facebook which I rarely used.

One more interesting one that I told family about eerily resembled reality. 11 Years ago, I had a dream about my cousin. ...

impressive the dreams & the reality are sad, but I am impressed by the fact 'it came out of nowhere' - & happened to be true.

There have been other such dreams I've had and if they're disturbing enough or has a "gritty real-world" feel I pay attention to them and look for signs in the real world.

*applause* same here bro. I have many dreams, but it could be just a reflection of whatever my mind has to process, they don't always have to have a message or a sign. However, I pay attention to a dream if it has a *feel* to it (good or bad), if I can't get it out of my head etc, then try to parallel it with the real life. Most of the time it helps.

Funny enough I've solved real world problems after seeing a solution in a dream. Yes, mainly work related. In both events above, I told others about the dream a day or two after I've had them.

do you want to share that? or PM me if you feel like, as you see I am quite a bit into Dreamhunting

I dreamed about tsunamis 4 times in a month before the tsunami of Japan. But I thought that my subconscious was warning me of some impeding danger, I had no idea that that was to be a real disaster!
Last month, I had two tsunami dreams, again

I don't usually talk about this stuff much because I've always been told that I'm "crazy" or "Cool story bro".

you're not alone.

"I must get some samples" and "The scientist stays objective" come to mind.

Interesting. I recently died in one of my own dreams but I was jolted awake at the very point of death. (I was crawling on my back on the floor of a store, trying to get away from this rampaging guy with a shotgun. He gave an evil smile as he held the gun at me at point blank range, and I scowled and gave him the finger right before he pulled the trigger and hit the right side of my neck, causing me to wake up.) I don't know if that would be considered the same as dying and then continuing on with the dream? I'm intrigued and a little scared right now.
