Question

Are strangers in dreams people we have seen before, or completely imagined by our minds?

Answer 1

Many dream interpreters believe that all characters in a dream are versions of our self.

Answer 2

when i was little i was convinced that every voice and every face  i heard or saw in my dreams were from someone i had met before. now i'm not sure but i now think that a face is a very generic thing. two eyes nose and a mouth. when i have dreams about people i only really remember things that are distinct about them. such as their teeth/smile or hair. and when i dream about strangers its more their eyes and nose.

Answer 3

It varies, I think sometimes they can be aspects of our personality personified, people we have seen but not noticed  and also  souls from our soul group  who come to help us with the working out of our problems in dreamtime.

Answer 4

it's all in your mind it's what you want people or fear what some people look like
