    Pukkamum..What does it mean if you never have any recollection of your dreams and really do not know if i dream?
    It is nice to see the value of your house going up'' Why ?
    Unless you are planning to sell up and not live anywhere, I can;t see the advantage.
    If you are planning to upsize the new house will cost more.
    If you are planning to downsize your new house will cost more than it should
    If you are trying to buy your first house its almost impossible.

    My husband is the same and I tell him he clearly has no stresses or worries.
    The dreams we remember I think, are the ones trying tell us something, the ones we don't remember have no significance and are just memory replays.
    You definitely do dream everybody does.
    Also heres a tip, if you want to remember your dreams try lying still for a while when you wake, you'll find as soon as you get up and start doing things dreams start to fade.
    Oh and try just telling yourself you will remember your dreams before you go to sleep.

    I find I remember dreams more clearly if I immediately try to recall what emotion they evoke.

    pukkamum what do you think of this. I still remember a dream from when I was 12 where I was riding a bike with others in the country and we were going down a steep lane. We rode past an old house and there was a oil painting in the house which I scraped with the sticky out bit on my bike spokes. Always remembered it for some reason but no idea whyl

    The house represents self having both an outside and inside as do our personalities.
    The size of the house represents the potential we have, the house being scary can indicate that you were scared of living up to your own potential.
    Seeing the house from the outside indicates you were thinking about who you could be and how you appear to others.
    The painting I'm not sure but perhaps you can figure that bit out with the other information.

    P.s the bicycle going downhill indicates a feeling of heading towards a goal perhaps slightly faster than is comfortable.

    LOST!!

    My recurring dream always starts somewhere familiar, maybe in a shop I know well in the town where I've lived all my life.

    I'm with my family.

    I leave the shop and my family to go and get something and then, although I'm somewhere I should know well, I cannot find my way back to them and I get more and more panicked that I'll never find my way back

    I always wake up after these dreams feeling "wrong" and tearful, a feeling that usually last all day

    Oh, and I have also had the inappropriate sexual dream but not for ages! :-(
    Leaving to go somewhere and getting lost is quite a profound dream it indicates trying to find a deeper meaning in life, perhaps you are exploring different beliefs and or philosophies in waking life, you may understand these beliefs but are struggling to apply them to your own life.
    Trying to find your way back indicates that these philosophies or beliefs don't quite connect with the real you.

    I have had a fair few memorable dreams.

    A secret underground place in the middle of oxford its all hidden and your go downstairs and there is an underground station and i go into a kind of waiting room and its all green carpet and green walls it feels german and very ww2.

    Shoes! a whole wall of shoe boxes blocking my way but i can jenga them out and go ooooooooooooo and get lost choosing my favourite ones.

    Being chased round by men on mounted horses in a post apocalypse town i know a few miles away.

    A water one my town is flooded in the future the water is very green and everyone gets about on boats like in venice. My old school was part of it.

    spider above my head and it suddenly drops like on my head ( real likfe i wake up screaming freaking people out ooops).

    teeth falling out one.

    I am female i had a dream i was a bloke and i had a male appendage i swear i could feel it lol (woke myself up very shocked).

    The big, red, round, velvet bed .......bit steamy shall we say

    The blue dream very scary watching a killer go round a family house slitting throats i was just an observer like watching a film.

    I saw this film with jack Nicholson and kathleen turner late one night and it a horrible ending . They were both assasains i think and he ended up killing her. I dreamt an alternative happy ending. I cannot watch horror i am just to sensitive and am scared i might dream bits.

    A funny dream was my top 3 ex's and a kissing contest so i could work out who was best kisser.

    I too have vivid dreams, in fact I had one the other night, that I feel is some what significant and that is why I am replying to this thread.


    I dreamt that I was watching this massive thunderstorm in the distance, it was so bad that, every bolt of lightening was setting houses on fire, but it looked so spectacular, the bolts were almost golden and the sky was purple. I was sheltering under a tree ( yeah I know, worst place ;) ) and it was raining, I had people near me, male and female, yet I don't know who they are cos I never saw their faces or had any feelings as to who they was. All I remember is feeling excited and also scared, part of me told me to run but the other part just was in awe of the lightening and just wanted to watch. I had this feeling in the dream though, that everything would be alright and I would be safe!

    So you dream experts out there, feel free to analyze this for me :D
    Raven. :grinheart:grinheart:grinheart

    Fire is assiciated with creativity, others in our dreams are different facets of our personality.
    Having both a man and woman stood with you suggests there is something happening or you hope will happen that every part of you believes in even though like the storm its scary you are fully on board and excited.
    I would imagine that perhaps you are on the brink of realising a new creativity inside of you or you have already realised you posess a unique skill and would like to explore it further.
