Hello everyone! do you believe that dreams has meanings? I mean like a warning of what is comming or bound to happen? Because I am experiencing a strange dream everyytime.It's not that it's scary but in my dreams I always see a face of a man.And in my dreams it feels like we know each other for the longest time.But when I wake up and try to remember what my dream was, I can't seem to remember the face of the man in my dreams..was it just normal and natural? Or am i just having the usual dreams..

given that the human brain absorbs tons and tons of info constantly unknowingly. it more than possible. sometimes your mind is trying to remind you or just tell you something but the images are jumbled so you have dreams to play back and play back over and over so you at some point pick up the lesson or in some case know not to act when a event comes your way. some would say a premonition which i don't rule out because, whatever you believe when i person clearly knows something before it occurs that just can't be explained away. so possibly this man you see is a person you used to know and forgot or represents a person or feeling connected to you that isn't there anymore or the fact that he is faceless tells that this something you want to see.....but really don't. anyway thats my two cents

Hi logo seeker: nice answer. Maybe that's the explanation of a recurrent and strange dream such as this one we are talking about now. In some cases, i think that it's a good mental exercise to try to look for this connections between our life and the way we dream. In some cases i have been able to explore an idea that it's happening in my head over and over again. Thanks for your answer. Have a nice day.

You know tipay26, it is normal for people to have dreams, sometimes dreams have nothing to do with your future at all, but sometimes it has something to do with the past, or present happenings, cause when people are dreaming, it is the subconscious mind who are working. Subconscious is like, the memory storage of our previous experiences or present experience. For instance, you met a guy before, that you think caught your attention, then after several days, you already forget about him, but the memory of it is stored on your subconscious mind, and that makes you bream of him. Another example is that, you idolized a male character so much on a TV show, or let's say you are a number one fan of that person, when you go to sleep, your subconscious mind will work and it will give you dream about him. Or you just met a male person, recently then it will give you a dream about it. Sometimes you will dream of it over and over again, and sometimes only ones. And not all of our dreams can be remembered. Have a nice day.

Hi tipay: I beleive dreams have their meanings. In some cases they express our fears or our thoughts that we are not able to express them in a coherent way or that we don't even notice when we are awake. Even if i am not a professional i'd think that this could mean that you have fear about something that is changing in your life. The idea of knowing someone new that makes you uncomfortable makes me feel this idea. Even with tah i am going to read the other's opinions. I think your discussion is pretty interesting. Thanks for that. Have a nice day and a good sleep ;) Alvaro

I'm sure that dreams reflect our feelings and emotions, but I honestly hope they aren't premonitions, because I recently had one that I left my 2 year old niece strapped into her car seat in the back of my car!! I woke up freaking out and crying, it was awful.

No i don't believe that dreams have meanings, but have you ever heard of lucid dreaming? That's where you realize that you are dreaming. And there are lucid dreaming induction techniques that you can use to induce lucid dreaming. But any way, i don't really think dreams have meanings but, dreams have helped some people come up with inventions, you can do a search online and it'll tell you about that.
