My Mom "felt" when my brother died in Viet Nam. He was listed as MIA but when someone would say maybe he is not dead she would just nod politely. She said she felt the same thing when his father was killed in WW11. She absolutely KNEW he had died. She felt she knew the exact moment it happened.

I think dreams have a lot of meanings...mostly subconscious....however I have on occasion had very strange dreams about loved ones who are gone or old friends or colleagues that maybe I don't see or talk to anymore...people who don't cross my mind anymore...so sometimes I find those really odd. I have a lot of dreams about my grandmother but I was very close to her.

I am a prolific dreamer.  When I awake in the morning I always remember the dreams.  I can then decide if I want to concentrate on them when fullly awake so I can write them down, or if they were one of my "Alice in Wonderland" dreams that I would just as soon forget.

For many years my mother would come to me in my dreams and we would sit down and have a conversation.  I would always ask her why other people thought she was dead, and she would tell me how silly that was.  She was so alive to me in those dreams and they were sometimes very long and drawn out.  She would always come out from the bathroom sink, but I don't remember her leaving that way.  This was an often recurring dream for many years.  She died at age 49 in 1967.

My sister, who died in 2011 . . . I don't dream about her as often, but I do dream about her.  We are young in my dreams, and they very much mirror how we were in real life.

I dream about my first husband, who died this past January, I dream of certain boyfriends, I dream about my job very, very often.  I do not dream about my children and grandchildren very often and if I do, it's usually my oldest daughter from whom I am estranged.

Maybe I just dream about what's past and not what's present.

I dream about the ex DBF  regularly. Haven't seen each other since we split years ago and I moved away.

Always a comforting conversation. Never scary, no romance, just comforting talk.

OMG.. had a huge dream with deceased mother and grandmother last night...

Is there a full moon somewhere I don't know about !!!!

I wish that I had an answer for this but I don't, this happened to me over five years ago. I had been having headaches for awhile and believed that it was my reoccurring sinus troubles. One night I had a dream and my mother spoke to me and told me that if I didn't go to the doctor that I would not make it by the week's end. This dream shook me up so much that I called my sister several states away and told her about it.

A few days later I asked my niece to take me to the ER where I was immediately rushed in and treated for a possible stroke. Thank God I didn't have one but my BP was dangerously high. I spent the next several days in the hospital (including a few in ICU) and thought about that dream for several months afterwards. I don't know if it was coincidence or if it was really her. It has never happened again.

I have vivid dreams almost every night - and remember most of them after I wake up...but the one that has stuck with me for years occurred about 10 years ago.

My father died in 1970. 

In the dream I was traveling for my job and checking into a hotel.

My dad appeared in the lobby and I was so surprised and happy and said "Daddy, what are you doing here"  He said "Oh I just missed you and wanted to surprise you!"

I said "Well I am that!  I have to go to a dinner tonite and will be back quite late...will you still be here in the morning/"  He grabbed me and hugged me very very tight and said

"Dear,  I will always always be here in the morning"....

then I woke up, but could still feel his arms around me.  It was the most comforting dream - bittersweet...

I have dreamed about my parents many times, but this one is the one that has stuck with me....

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?

@hoosieroriginal...I am just curious as to why you have no way of contacting this person?...It would be very interesting as to what he/she may have to say about what you experienced.
