Dreams--Subconscious Creativity

Dream moon pic I took in 2017


I'm the kind of person who almost always remembers at least one dream every night. I know some people don't usually remember any dreams, or have lots of nightmares instead of good dreams, and I feel sorry for them:(

Most of my dreams are either weird or fascinating, full of adventure and exploration!
I believe dreams are our subconscious mind being creative, and sometimes are symbolic of what's going on in our waking life.

When I was a kid, I used to have flying dreams, then when I got a little older I started having more levitating dreams. More recently I have not had either, but hopefully will have some again soon!

Nowadays I mostly dream of exploring different buildings and cities, as well as walking on the beach and being in or near some form of water. I also have a lot of animals show up in my dreams. Sometimes they are a calming and pleasant presence, and sometimes they are either chasing me or biting me!

I often visit the same city many times, either the same location or a different one within the same city. I think of it as my dream city, and it sometimes reminds me of Scotland, which I love! I have been to Scotland twice now, and plan to go back soon:) (more on that in future travel posts! )

I have several reoccurring dreams, some of which are darker and involve going with a group of people down stairs to a basement level, or through a dark corridor, and trying to find our way through. Sometimes we run across zombies or other monsters or aliens, but we always make it out! It reminds me of the movies! Most of these dreams don't make me feel scared, but every once in a while one will surprise me awake!

Sometimes I look through the eyes of other people, and change views during a dream.

I find it very fascinating the way our minds work!

What kinds of dreams do you have?

Sometimes it's fun to try interpreting dreams, although I mostly just enjoy having them:) One site I like to use is http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamdictionary/  It has several possible meanings for different items or activities you may have in your dreams. Well worth checking out!
