Write It Down If you remember your dreams, at least for your first waking moments, have a journal by your bedside and write down with as many details as possible: setting, colors, people, time, pace etc.
You can grab your cell phone and speak the details of your dreams and record them. You never know when you might want to refer back to a particular dream.

White I mentioned a few times colors mean different things to different people simply because of culture and religion for example. From my experience white means something righteous and heavenly such as the Great White Throne of God. But I have heard people relate white to isolation and loneliness.
Wind Chimes There is a common theme of peace and tranquility. I have not heard of a bad dream related to wind chimes.

Question Do you write
down your dreams or have the desire to moving forward?
When I was in university, I took an altered states of consciousness class and we had to write down our dreams. I became so nervous and felt so awful because I was having more vivid dreams, lucid dreaming etc... That the prof. Told me to quit because it was too much for me. He also said he wished he had time to study me. I had a feeling of being complimented and worried at the same time:)
ReplyDeleteI don't write mine down. I have found that if I awake and don't have to get right up, and I simply lay there and think about what I was dreaming, I can sometimes slip right back into the same dream when I fall back to sleep.
ReplyDeleteI used to write down my dreams. Many creations of mediocre poetry arrived during the sleep hours. I need to begin that again because I lose the dreams quickly.
ReplyDeleteI have a great desire to move forward now to figure out how.
I have thoroughly enjoyed your dream series.
I have heard it is good to keep a journal by the bed for such a purpose. I remember one time having a dream where someone said in it "if you want your son to be safe, pray this prayer." I remember praying the prayer right then and there but don't remember exactly what the prayer was in the morning. It was a very intense feeling. Then I wish I had a journal close by to write down more specific details.

Hi Stephen - occasionally I'll note something down - but rarely ... I'd rather be asleep. Love the image of 'white' ... thankfully my mind rests peacefully .. cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteI don't write down my dreams, no, often they don't even stay long enough to do that. The moment the cat jumps on my head to tell me to get out of bed, they evaporate. Only a few stick with me.

I would have to put on my glasses to see to write. Sorta breaks the spell. I would like wind chimes in a dream. Very calming indeed. Glad you did not list W for Walking Dead.
ReplyDeleteI wish I always wrote my dreams down when I said I would instead of falling back asleep and telling myself I'll remember. Cuz I never do.
ReplyDeleteI had a pink cookie in my dream last night. It was one of those wafter cookies that comes in white, brown and pink. Also had a psycho chick chasing me.
ReplyDeleteI always try to remember as many details of my dreams when I wake, but still forget most of the details.

I've gotten up in the middle of the night and written the story related to my dream or nightmare, because if I awaken to write it done, I'm awake and might as well get busy. :)
ReplyDeleteI read once that you should write your dreams down before you open your eyes. Just try doing that!
ReplyDeleteI have occasionally written them down, not very often though. One thing I am surprised you haven't written about is elevators and snakes. I have dreampt about both of those several times.
ReplyDeleteI've always kept bamboo chimes on my patio and often hear them in my dreams (not possible to hear them from my room in reality). I do keep a pad and pen handy but it's generally for jotting down 3:AM epiphanies;-)
ReplyDeleteSomeone gave me a dream diary one year for Christmas. I never used it. If I am awake enough to be able to write, the dream is gone. (I have to put on my glasses, and sit up, and think... By that time I'm fully awake.)

I've thought of having a dream journal next to my bed so many times but I usually have to pee so bad when I first wake up, I can sit on the edge of the bed and write. And by the time my feet hit the floor and I hit the bathroom, I've already forgotten my dream! Maybe I need to start waking up earlier... :)

Now i would love to dream about wind chimes!
ReplyDeleteI frequently write about dreams in my journals. I've particularly recorded my past life dreams in detail, though they almost all came in my teens and early twenties. I don't have any past life dreams these days, just about, since I made peace with that part of myself and healed those issues.

I do write dreams down but only rarely. Most of the time I forget!
