In My Dreams.

The dream I have.
I am walking along a road and I reachout with my hand and I am then on a bus the bus carries on for awhile it stops and I am in the same place I started out. This repeats until I wake up.

Adrian
Ok I know I need help but that kind of help isn't available in Roma

[astroron (Ron)]

I have dreams that can continue night after night of the same subject, as if it is really happening.
The people are people I know and the subjects range from Astronomy to normal every day things,and can continue on running through my brain even though I am awake
The only way I can stop them is to get up and have a cup of tea or some thing

All of these dreams mentioned so far are really interesting and some are quite bizarre! They have to mean something. Thanks for sharing guys, this been a very interesting thread.

Nettie, I wonder if your dream stopped because you were seeking freedom and got it in the countryside once you moved there. I heard once that dreams of flying means freedom is sought.

And Ron, your one is certainly a bizarre one! Your dreams are chasing you through consciousness... wow!

And then Brett's one, actually predicting a future outcome...! Brett, the look on your face and what must have been running through your head when you heard that news must have been a doozy.

Max- Travolta shortish? I think I better google some measurements... Or are you extra tallish when you met him . Okay, googled and done: 6ft 2". Not short . By the way, naturally, I am ridiculously jealous that you met him, and for that I will have to you.

The dream person I used to listen to on the radio used to base all her ideas on a lot of basic emotive stuff(resolved or not ) rather than the specific content of the dreams themselves.

Umm I posted a newspaper article not a dream...

The appearance of the 54-year-old actor Down Under is being timed to coincide with the 90th birthday celebrations of Qantas - the Australian airline for which Travolta is an official goodwill ambassador.
It is understood Travolta, who holds a pilot's license, will fly his Boeing 707 to Western Australia.
Australian television network Channel 7 has run a telethon - a non-stop fundraising broadcast - in Perth to raise money for children's charities since 1968.

Ken, thank you for letting me know. But Perth is sooo far away. I doubt that this will be broadcast here in Brissy. I just realised - wait! There is always you tube I wonder if he will be landing his plane at Brissy airport I would love to see it. I love planes too.

Perhaps you fear Travolta is going to be all over the news and you won't be able to get his name out of your head and in your dreams.

This morning I had a dream where I went to the nextdoor neighbour's house and under his clothes line I was picking up American money as his son had just left to return to America. Which is strange as he lives in Australia.

My dreams are many and varied, some able to spoken about here and others definately not. The definately not types are of course most enjoyable as are my flying dreams. I look forward to either of these as both extend the boundaries of my conscious existance. The flying dreams always start exactly the same way, its very windy and Im on a hillside of some sort and I just put my arms out to catch more of the wind and lean into it ... bingo lift off and up and up and up. I can see places I know very well in some of them and experience the exhilaration of being a bird in them. Some flying dreams I am escaping an unpleasent situation that someone created ... so they are after me I guess and I just go up and up and up to escape. Its a bit like hang gliding as I dont flap to fly but rather am always on the lookout for up draughts etc. I dont know about flying dreams being your subconscious reaction to wanting freedom as I have never thought of my freedoms having confines ... well apart from the 6 years I spent in the Air Force. I also have these bloody aweful dreams that you cant get out of. Everytime you wake the very second your back in REM state its back to that same dream. They are the pits and its always the most stupidist things like trying to get past a stop sign at an intersection for example. They leave you feeling like you've just run a marathon to get into the ring with Jeff Fenech !!!

I think being a piscarian I am a prolific dreamer in the conscious state as well

Good Thread Suzy

It wasnt a dream ... it happened last week

Back to the rainy nightmare now tho.

[cybereye (Mario)]

Typical - I wasn't in Brissie last week...

This Saturday night will be awesomely clear with the best seeing in months.

Oh man don't get me started. According to some of my friends i must be crazy when i sleep. I have the most vivid, bizarre dreams, and they seem to make so much sense while im having them. once i dreamt that i had this strange grey thinng crawling under the skin on my wrist. My sister (who is estranged to say the least) was there and told me "don't worry its just a wrist worm" and then proceeded to cut it out.
So now my friends often repeat her words to make me laugh. Another i had where i died, and was just a ghost walking around. The strange thing was that everyone could see and touch me, not like a real ghost at all, so when i told them, they didnt believe me. the problem was that i only had a few hours before i would become a real ghost and i wanted to get my things in order before i had to go, but i couldn't convince anyone. it was quite sad. Weirdest of all is that when i had died i had been decapitated, so i was carrying around my head to prove to everyone that i really was gone.
I'm not really crazy, just have lots of family issues that come out in my dreams in the strangest ways lol.

[OneOfOne (Trevor)]

Ah dreams! My wife is jealous of my dreams, I try to tell her about them every time I have one and can remember details. I find that if I go over the details as soon as I wake, I can usually remember them fairly well. If I don't do this, the details dissappear in a few minutes and within half an hour or so I can't even be sure I had a dream. We just came back from a 17 night cruise around the Australia from Perth to Sydney and every time I had a dream, I wrote it down and entered the description into the photo album. I think I documented about a dozen or so.

In one dream I had this large blue cushion that would fly when I got onto it, but it only went to about shoulder height. Everyone thought it was a great idea, but I explained it was only a prototype and I was hoping to get it to go higher as I had to be careful I didn't hit people on the back of the head as I was flying along. I also wanted to get it to fly higher!

In another one I went back to the place where I used to work and had to pick something up, so I parked in the roadway along the side of the buildings. When I came back to the car, I could see myself sitting in the drivers seat, but thought to myself "this is great, because I am in the front, I can open the back of the car without having to put down what I am holding". I just thought of opening the back and it opened. I then realised I had forgotten something and so went back in. I walked through one laboratory and some of the people I used to work with 20 years ago were playing squash against one of the walls, even though the room was full of electronic equipment. This didn't seem unusual. I walked into another room and they were about to start an aerobics class, but I was busy and so couldn't stay. I had to go upstairs, but there were no elevators, so I had to climb on the outside of the building, but piled on the outside were cars! You had to climb through the back and out through the windows to make your way up. As I got to the top floor I began to fall. I was saved as the "Cookie Monster" appeared from inside a rubbish bin and reached out and grabbed me. Then I woke!!!

I actually just bought a couple of books from Amazon (I wanted to buy something at 97 cents!) on dreams. They both have very good reviews and don't seem to treat dreams as prophecy, but rather as the brain interpreting events. I don't see any basis for why dreams would fortell the future, if I wanted to know the future, I would have bought books on astrology!

I found this article on dreams this morning, I thought be of some interest to this thread http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-11635625
I think he would have plenty of willing volunteers to practice on, here on iceinspace

"We can sail with our imaginations and think about all the things we could do if we had access to a person's brain and basically visualise their thoughts. "For example, instead of just having to write an email you could just think it. Or another futuristic application would be to think a flow of information and have it written in front of your eyes."
Very scary stuff in that article, Ron! Interesting reading.

Now seeing that you have admitted that funny dream, I will admit one too....

I dreamed once that I spent the night with, wait for it....
Gilligan (from Gilligan's Island). Yes, it's true. I was sick to the bone when I woke up - then I told hubby and he just laughed at me. Never forgot it to this day.

Gee interesting article … talk about like looking for a needle in a haystack ..

He found, for example, that when a volunteer was thinking of Marilyn Monroe, a particular neuron lit up.

That's amazing … I'm having problems wrapping my mind around that one ..
… A single thought = 1 neuron ?

I think there's a LOT more study to do there ..

Cheers
PS: Suzy .. better replace that Gilligan one with a Travolta one … quick .. go have a good 'swig'. Cheers
