I am particularly fond of a certain framework for explaining dreams that I came across about 10 years back.

There are 3 types of dreams.

1. Dreams that are spiritual inspiration, stimulated and created so that you learn or realize something. A message from the Spirit. (Some nightmares may be oppression from a dark spiritual entity, also.)

2. Dreams that are simply the mind processing and working through all the input of the day. Dog dreams. No particular meaning, just proceedings of the different ideas, experiences, and connections, being processed (an important function of sleep).

3. Dreams that are one's subconscious (aka unconscious) mind attempting to communicate with your conscious mind. A message from yourself, to inform you and ideally guide you.

Re: the conscious and unconscious mind (Category 3 dreams)

The unconscious mind is like an 8-year old child. There is no critical thinking there. Also, it speaks in symbols - symbology is the language it uses to communicate.

One of the key functions of the unconscious mind is to store and hold information and data (experiences, etc) that the conscious mind is not ready to process properly. Thus, an experience (emotion, thought, etc) that occurred at a young age which the non-critical thinking young mind (pre-8 years of age-ish) was not ready or capable of processing (because it is too complex, too painful, etc) is stored in the unconscious mind, which will later bring it up again and again so that your conscious mind can deal with it.

That's the reason why you have, for example, the same thing occurring again and again until you realize, "oh, that's what that means" etc.

Thus, in the third category dream, your unconscious might speak to you in symbols. Once you learn the language of the unconscious mind, then those dreams and their contents can be seen as meaningful communications from yourself to yourself, and you can begin to apply interpretations.

E.g. Ever have dreams about flying or floating? What does that mean? What is the unconscious mind attempting to express? In some cases, it may be a statement about how free you feel or don't feel in your personal life, etc.

To die, to sleep—
No more—and by a sleep to say we end
The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to. ’tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish’d. To die, to sleep—
To sleep—perchance to dream. Ay, there’s the rub!
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause—there’s the respect
That makes calamity of so long life.

Every night I remember the last one.

Every night, all night long. Luckily I go right back to sleep.

1 to 2 times a week. The other night all my passed away family memebers were in it. Very odd.

EVERY NIGHT! Quite vividly.

Last night stream was quite disturbing. I was with my mom, and she convinced me to get vaccinated. So we could go on a trip somewhere. My daughter was with us away as well, but she was already vaccinated.

Once I realize the mistake I made, I immediately went to my resources to find out how to detox from the spike proteins. I was explaining to my daughter about it, hoping that she would listen as well. She had been vaccinated long before us.

Then I woke up.

It was quite disturbing because my mom and I have refused to become vaccinated, and we take a pretty hard stance on it. It would take more than a trip somewhere for me to be vaccinated.

But I think the meaning of the dream was the fact that I had an opportunity to share with my daughter about a vaccination detox. She’s Vaxxed and boosted, and I think I want her to be able to stay healthy.

The dreams I have happened nightly… And when I wake up, I remember them completely. If I don’t think about it throughout the day that they will dissipate from my mind, but today the vaccination was quite disturbing.

The best part… Is waking up unvaccinated LOL
