dream communication

greg_michaels_is_an_alias1 — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 04:53:19 GMT

I know this can happen with people I care deeply about or am extremely intuned with....does anyone else communicate with others in there dreams....and from these dreams can you gather what the other person is feeling, if they are in trouble or whatever? Is there a way to enhance this communication?

Why is it the dream realm seems so much more real than everyday life?

In the Navy....again

Bart — Tue, 23 Jan 2007 23:55:38 GMT

As a preface I need to say that I spent 12 years in the Navy during the Vietnam experience. I was a draftsman most of the time I was on active duty. Even though I was from time to time with in the combat zone, I was never "in country" or in harm's way. I was discharged from the Navy in 1976. Recently, I have been having dreams concerning my being called back to service at my present age, and I am 64!

In these dreams, typically, I go to bed in my own bed at home with my wife. However, I am waken by the sound of ship board noises and the sleeping compartment lights coming on. It is obvious that I am the new one on board ship as no one knows me. However, I know where my locker is located and all of my uniforms are neatly folded right where they should be along with some of my civilian clothes. Just as I used to do, I quickly go to the head (bathroom) where I shower and shave. During this time there is some small chat with the other sailors around me. While dressing, I learn that I am not the only new one on board ship, there are others that are new arrivals too.

While dressing, and without looking obvious, I check out my rating and see that it is exactly as it was when I was discharged DM2 (E5). After breakfast, I figured that I would learn something pretty fast as that is when everybody has to check in called "muster and quarters". No one seemed to know where I was suppose to be as was told to go to the Admin office on ship. The first strange thing that occured, as if just being on board ship wasn't strange enough, was that I knew exactly where that office was located.

When I arrived at the Admin Office, I spoke with a Personalman and I indentified myself to her with my military ID card which I don't remember receiving but there it was with my photo. We've been expecting you for several weeks. I then went along with this and asked if she had a copy of my orders...and she did. I don't know why that didn't surprise me, but it didn't. I did notice that on my orders I was given a large promotion from an E5 to E8 and I inquired about the promotion. She told me that she was getting to that and I was to report to the uniform shop on ship for my new uniforms. She also explained that I no longer would be staying in the enlisted compartment but my belongings were being moved to the Chief Petty Officer quarters. My stay there may be short as I was being considered for a position as a Commissioned Officer with a rank of Lieutenant Commander but that would need approval from BuPers.

I asked about my wife and her paperwork as a dependent. The personalman told me that had already been taken care of and that her photo was being taken this morning for her ID card. She also explained all the allotments that went to my wife before would be reactivated and ofcourse, she would get a lot more than before. Then I threw a curve to her and explained the woman I was married to previously had passed away and I had remarried. She looked through my records and told me of course, that info is right here and asked if the address I that was shown in my records was accurate. It was, and why this didn't surprise me I don't know.

When all of the personal items was done, I got down to the meat and potatoes of the matter and asked why I was on board ship. The personalman explained that I was requested by Admiral Johnson and I was part of his staff (Which I was when I was on active duty way back when). She told me that I was requested by him and the promotions was recommended by him. She also explained that I was the first of the Staff to arrive and that is why no one on board knew about me. She also told me that this was a major recall of nearly all veterans that were still alive and could still serve. She explained even with my arthritis disablility I could still serve as I will be primarily drawing plans for housing and barracks for those being recalled.

I went to the uniform shop and they were waiting for me. They had my new chief's uniform ready and not to my surprise it fit perfectly even with all the extra weight I had gained sinse the last time I was on active duty. Then I went to the office on board ship where I would be working and I knew exactly where it was. The office was the best equiped I have ever seen. The top of the line was everywhere, computer design (acad) had replaced the old hand drawing. There were several young active duty draftsmen working at their computer stations. They all stopped working and snapped to attention when I entered the office. They too, were expecting me. It seems that I was the last to know about this recall.

One female drafter approached me with a cup of coffee, with cream, just as I liked it. I thanked her and asked how long have they been expecting me? About 2 months she replied then added, we hope you get the commission.

It was at this point I woke up from my dream. I was laying in my bed and my wife was there. It was time to get up. Over a cup of coffee, I told her about the dream. She told me she knew I must have been dreaming as I was tossing and turning all night long.

I wonder if this dream has any meaning. What do you think?

last night's dream

Sun, 13 Nov 2005 04:42:20 GMT

well i was at my high school, and there was going to be this big production in the gym that was announcing who got on the basketball teams. and some girl came up to me and handed me her jersey and shorts and was like "hold these!" and so i took them from her and she left and didnt come back. then I was in the cafeteria and i had this HUGE slurpee and i spilled it on me so i went to the locker room to change into the jersey and shorts. but when I went in the locker room was really big, with a lot of space and many lockers. and then my friend kelcie shows up and I say "why is it so big?" and she answers "duh! its co ed" and then I go to change and Brady (hot guy from school) comes in and does that cheesy point with thumbs up and wink thing at me while I was changing, which was really awkward. and then i was in the jersey and I went out of the locker room and someone was like "hurry get in the gym they are going to announce the teams now!" and i was like "no i dont play!" and then they were like "get out there!" so she pushes me out into the middle of the gym, and then the girl who gave me her jersey was there and she was really mad at me. She was yelling and I was trying to explain and everyone was staring at us and it was embarrassing and then I woke up.

One of my earliest dreams

DarkSneak — Wed, 23 Aug 2006 20:08:20 GMT

I was around 2 years old. In the dining room of our house we had two sliding wood doors on either end. It was in the middle of the night and storming outside, lots of lightning and thunder, and leaves would be blowing through the room. I was standing in the middle of the room. When I stamped my feet, the sliding wood doors would open and close, very quickly back and forth in a big racket and out of one of the doors popped this very tall man in a black tuxedo with a big black bowtie. Only his head wasn't his head. On his neck rested the planet Jupiter. He would then come after me and push me down on the floor and bang me up and down. Then he would quickly retreat back into the closet. I would stand up and stamp my feet again, and the doors would do their thing and out popped Mr. Jupiter-Head and he would do it all over again. That dream ended like all of my childhood dreams with me jumping from the top step upstairs and falling in slow motion. But before I hit the ground I'd wake up with my heartbeat pulsing in my ears. Picture it - a tall, skinny man in a tuxedo who's head was the planet Jupiter. Am I a sick twit, or what????

Time machine

Sat, 03 Jul 2004 04:53:29 GMT

Hi guys..NU 2 the group. I have a lot of strange dreams and sometimes they are very intuitive/precognitive. Other times they are so wierd that I have no idea where the thoughts to creat em even came from. Here is my latest strange dream from last night.
My friends (in the dream they are all non discript people), my sister, and I have a time machine and have fun hopping around checking stuff out. Well we come across this bum that somehow intrigues us and we decide to go into the past to see what made him homeless. Turns out he is a brillant scientist that went crazy and became an alcoholic. We also discover he went crazy from not taking his medication one day. We decide we need to go back in time and remind him to take his meds in hopes he wont end up on skid row but first need to do routine machine maintainace. We tell him our plan and he likes it and offers to help us with the machine. There are a couple of loose wires that lead from my old house where I used to live to the machine. He reconnects the wires the wrong way and the house and wires catch on fire. THe fire is slowly making its way to the machine much like flames on a trail of gunpowder. We all immediately decide to hurry to the machine and go back in time just enough to prevent this tragedy and simply start over and reconnect hte proper wires. My sister and I are the only ones that make it to the machine and take off but I accidently enter the wrong date and go into the future where We see a man in a car..there is a nuclear explosion. My sis and I are somehow protected from all this but we see the explosion rip off the lower part of the mans face as it smashes against the window of his car. He then turns to us and he is trying to speak ..we see his vocal cords moving and stuff but he has no mouth and pretty much the lower half of his head looks like the mouth of the alien in predator but all bloody. It then begins to snow (nuclear winter?) His eyes then widen and he points off to the distance where we see a really big tree...The tree , instead of bark is covered in flesh and is flesh coloured. It throbs as if it has a heart beat and is breathing....I then wake up. Any thoughts to what all this one means? I figured the tree had somehting to do with the tree of life maybe? But the meaning of it all still baffles me.

pop/rock star!

ed — Thu, 29 Jun 2006 06:12:08 GMT

i had the wirdest dream last night...i dreamt i was in a band, an 80s band singing pop/rock music, i was experiencing my dream through this person it could have been me, it felt like it was me but anyways...

the dream started with a group of youths, trying to staunch out one another or something, one of my "friends" who was in the band got badly beaten up, he was lying there semi unconcious with his eyes open but i think his brain was in shock, and he just couldnt get up...

and we started going home, i went into the toilets by myself, and i started urinating, and some random guy got in my way and i started to urinate all over his face. and from there i started walking home, on the way home there were nice looking females, some with tattoos etch.

meanwhile back at base, my other band members seemed pretty depressed, we all lived/slept in this one room, and it seemed like with had a little cubby hole that we slept in, and we were practicing..but the leader of the band was quite frustrated and kept on going crazy at us...

fast forward in time, we started to walk down the mall, we were getting strange looks, and we taught yeah were gonna rock this place...and after we set up our gear, the leader goes cmon boys lets bring the roof down, and we started doing the intro, and it was a kind of chant...it sounded real cool in my dream, and it as an 80s song...and everybody started to flock towards us and there were heaps of people.

hrmm, maybee that 80s song was what i heard when i was in the womb or something.

I had a dream that Elvis was a waiter. I think it was at a Taxi's restaurant or something. But he was just as popular (aka screaming girls) there as he was a singer.

hi new

Ro-from-NYC — Wed, 31 May 2006 02:07:19 GMT

HI I'm new here...just joined this group...cause of a dream I had this evening while taking a nap...

ok here goes...

I was dreaming I was traveling...in what appears to be inside a spaceship. There were several crew members...and each of us were assigned to a specific section of the craft. The craft had some problem...which my space mate and I had to solve...this involved a geometric designed...in which we had to realign in order to get back on course. In the dream..I was phyiscally able to feel the coldness of the metal...the coolness in the room. I recall asking my partner if he thought he could solve the problem...and he answered me yes, but I need your help in fixing this problem...so I phyiscally stood next to this huge microscope like instrument...and we aligned what appeared to be a viewing tube...and made a laser like connection fixing the problem. I also recall thinking, we could died in outer space if we didn't fix our problem...but somehow I wasn't worried. I smiled at my partner as we worked and saw that things were getting fixed. Then we took our sits and got ready to navigate...it was so intense and so real like...and no I have not watched or read any space traveling stuff...I usually try to trace my steps to see what might have triggered the thought or the idea....but I had a fairly low key weekend...ran a few miles...chores...played with my cats and partner. Nothing weird...lol

any ideas?

still haunted

zuzuz — Sat, 10 Sep 2005 22:35:15 GMT

my ex was there at burningman. strange to run into the love of my life there, since luckily he claimed a different hemispere and we no longer cross paths. wasn't quite his usual blond and perky self, beat down a little by the years. making snide remarks about me up to my usual hijinks. somehow the fact that we didn't get it together and he married someone else, was something he could hold over my head. as if i didn't have enough pressure from my mother.

i slapped him across the face. he being all man's man that getting cold cocked wouldn't have even rocked him. i slapped him again.

then even in my dream i had to walk away as i'm not a violent person and haven't bitch slapped a boy since i was 19 and all full of myself.

disturbing to know that years later and miles away he still has the ability to haunt me. eek, where's a therapist?;)

this is some funny shit

Thu, 24 Jun 2004 20:47:51 GMT

so i JUST now remembered having this dream and i had to write it down some where before i forgot

so all i know is this: im in a cave, its lit up kind of like the caves you walk through to tour them....but the premise is that i was at burning man or some type of cave based event like burning man. (yah imagine 30,000 people on drugs running through caves)
so im sitting on this rock that is about 4 feet high, my brother and best friend are with me and we're about to smoke a joint when in walks Leonard Nemoy , not as Spock but just in a black suit the way he looks on the priceline.com commercials.
In the dream he looked aged as he does now as well. Im sitting there going , holy shit its Leonard Nemoy.
He goes to sit with us on this rock and I asked him if he wants to smoke weed. He tells us once in a long while and he says "yah ill take a hit or two" or something like that.
I remember in the dream thinking , this is some funny shit, im smoking a joint with Spock.

and thats all i remember
