Last night I had someone appear in my dreams and it was very powerful - most of the time I don't remember my dreams but this person appeared and made a very powerful statement to me.  This person is still alive, but I have no way of contacting this person.  Have you ever had a strong message from someone living or dead and do you believe they are trying to tell you something?

eewww - I wish I didn't open this thread.  I had a horrendous dream featuring someone who just died.  I could not get back to sleep.  This occurred Tuesday night.

 

And to answer your question - yes I do think this is a mode of communication.

Dreams are nothing more than your thoughts when you are sleeping. The reason they seem odd, and mine usually are, is we have a slightly better control on our brain function when we are awake. I had a dream a few days ago I was married to Dwayne Wayne from a Different World. Meaningless

I actually believe that I am trying to tell myself something in my dreams. I used to go to France every year but now I get my French fix by going to Québec. Between the hassles at airports and the terrorist attacks in Europe, I prefer driving vacations these days. In any case, this year I've been having dreams about France. I've "been to" my favorite Parisian restaurant and my favorite country hotel several times. I don't think the French people in my dreams are telling me something but I do think my subconscious mind is definitely communicating a message.

Many dreams are those that are trying to tell us something or  guide us to a solution to something bothering us.   When something is bothering me or I have been particularly anxious over something, I have vivid dreams of needing a bathroom and when I finally see one and enter the stall, either the toilet disappears or someone else is in there or suddenly the stall disappears and the toilet is in a room with others around.  When I dream of my grandmother and mother I know things are going to be ok in my life.  After a beloved pet dies, when I dream about the pet it always leads me to another who needs a home. 

 

My paternal uncle told me he ran into a woman they (him and his brothers and sisters) grew up with.  She had left the area years before and asked about his one brother she was friends with and would visit when she came back.  She said she tried to call him but his number was disconnected.  She said she had a dream about him and he told her he was too busy to get together with her since his brother was coming to stay with him.   That uncle had died a year before and my father died shortly after this dream of hers.

 

 Some dreams are just that dreams that probably have to bearing on anything - but...

I dreamt my Father died and was so happy to wake up from that dream.  An hour after I woke up I was told he died. He was 58 and this was completely unexpected.  I have absolutely no doubt he was communicating with me as he died. This is something I'll never forget.

No. I do not believe in this hocus pocus of dreams being interpreted or foretelling death or messages from beyond or as a comunication whatever... If it is something that you want to believe than that is your choice.  People like to read more into things than are there.

Funny that you should mention this topic, as the other night I had a dream that left me laughing for a good half hour after I woke up.

 

I dreampt that I was at work, and we had a surprise unexpected visit from a certain v.i.p.

 

I was at my desk and on my computer, while this person was leaning against a doorframe, texting or twittering away on his smart phone.

 

I tried to make conversation by asking him when he was going to go back to D.C.

 

He mumbled sometime next week, and he was was going to do blah-blah-blah.

 

I said, "Oh, that sounds like it'll be a very busy day".

 

He said that it was going to be a busy day.

 

Then, my co-workers and I gathered around a conference table for a mandatory meeting, and that was when I woke up.

My Mother taught us that if you remember a dream after you wake up it is God sending you a message.

The last dream I had that I recall was a few months ago - I dreamed my Dad came to get me to go to Heaven. Scary but good. We walked up to heaven together and had a nice conversation.

It's hardly "hocus pocus" when a person dreamt a parent died and it happened a few hours later.
