I heard something about dreams....?

Question

I was told that everything in your dream is a memory. Like, every single person is someone you've seen before, either randomly on a street or one of your relatives or someone. So like, if I see this random boy my age in a dream, It means I would of have to of seen him before when I'm awake.

Is that true?

Answer 1

No, everything u dream is not a memory, like dreaming of riding on a flying unicorn, obviously, u haven't done it so it cannot b a memory. I think dreams come from ur imagination, conscious & subsuscious combined.

Answer 2

Not necessarily. It would be nice if our brains were wired that way. Everyone you see in your dreams is a part of a person or something that you have seen in your real awake life. Our brains do store everything, in our subconscious, but when the memories are retrieved to be in our dreams, they don't contact just one person or event, they may be parts of many people, many events, or many things we have be exposed to during our lives. You mentioned a boy in your dream, he could be parts of many boys you have met or from a picture you have seen in a magazine or book or even parts of many boys you have seen.

The more complete the picture becomes in your dream or the more you're exposed to the same pictures, events, etc. in real life the more you will  begin to believe that you have seen or experienced something before-de ja vu.

Answer 3

it's true.

if a random boy appears in your dream, it doesn't mean that you've necassarily MET him before.. maybe you saw him at the mall or grocery store and something stuck in your subconcious -- his hair, or shoes for example.

also if you see a "random boy" in your dream, it could be someone you know, in a different form.

everything you see in dreams relates to real life.. your mind just distorts it a bit.

Answer 4

Maybe for some, but not for everyone.

Answer 5

sometimes our spirit goes out,by whatever means.into the future

its why we expirience deja vu.if we were more aware

it would happen more.but in dreams it happens more,

depending on our minds some people are more apt to have a more distorted view depending on lifestyle,or even something simple as a vivid imagination.or seeming blocks,that prevent us in going forward

know thy self! with intention in a clear mind anything is possible.
