So yeah, dreams. Everyone dreams, even if you don’t remember them in the morning. Junkrat and I spent quite a while talking about dreams and we both came to idea of making this topic. Do you have weird dreams that you remember? Share them here! I’ve been lucid dreaming for around 10 years, although I can’t force myself into it on demand easily. It can be fun, although sleep paralysis isn’t (has happened at least once), so I am careful with it. My dreams have also revealed small, unimportant bits of the future. Things my dreams predicted include: lost objects, events in school, and the Pokémon Zoura and Zoroark! In my dreams, I tend to see several reoccurring characters that are not real people-such as my real life friends and family. They seem to be based off of various traits to my personality and while I have lucid dreamed, I often get some better understanding of myself through them. Spoiler Crystal- a large pink and gold dragon. I often fly on her, and she seems to represent my growth as a person. She required a lot of care in a series of dreams, as I raised her from a egg. Just like me, she was heavily babied and spoiled, and needed help learning how to do dragon things. I’m still learning how to properly adult, as well, so her presence is a big moral booster. Chloe- Sassy feminine fatale is clearly the party-hard bad girl I never got to let loose in my teen years. Probably for the best, as she tends to go too extreme. She’s also sly and mischievous, parts of myself that I wish were better (hence my love of the zoura line, with their pranks and sneaky nature). Decamel- Calm and sweet, she’s the opposite of Chloe in several ways. Deca is a extreme of what I usually am- quiet, polite, and very caring. She can be annoying over time, due to how insistent she is on making sure everyone’s ok. She also gets in trouble when she’s too kind to the wrong people. Epsilon- Mysterious dragon-man I barely see. He seems trapped within the steampunk themed building that I always considered his home. Epsilon is more than likely my feeling of being stuck in life. Kyubbi- This fox creature doesn’t show up much anymore, however she was very motherly and acted much like a guide. Anyways, onto the dreams! Dream 1 Spoiler This dream happened a week after mom passed away, as long as I could remember mom mentioned wanting to see whales in the wild. The dream started with me and Kyubbi on a ship in the Artic waters (unsure where, just that there was icebergs and a Aurora Borealis in the sky). Kyubbi stayed quiet and silently informed me to do the same (I just knew what she wanted by her stare). Exploring the boat I found mom and dad watching the view as many whales started breaching the water beautifully. They kissed, then mom caught onto a giant pink whale and it flew away. I woke up crying. Dream 2 Spoiler I was watching tv, and a episode of the Transformers Animated anime came up. In it, Bumblebee was fighting some Decepticons (don’t remember which one, maybe Starscream?) and ended up exploding from some attack-and the world went dark. It ended on that cliffhanger as I had to wake up for school. ..That morning, 3 hours into school, a power transformer blew up and we went home early as there was no power. Dream 3 Spoiler In the dream I was either watching tv or reading a book (not the internet as this was before I started using it) and I caught sight of 2 Pokémon that were going to be released ‘soon’. This was during Diamond and Pearl, so the background was matching the Pink/Blue backgrounds of D/P’s box art. The Pokémon were a pair of foxes, similar to Vulpix and Ninetales, but darker colored. They were stated to be Dark/Fire types, with wild and ratty fur and large fluffy tails. I remember the final form had adorable red eyes similar to Kanto Ninetales, but a rather mischievous smirk. Base form lacked toes/claws and seemed to be mid-giggle in the art. Few years later we got Zoura and Zoroark.. Dream 4 Spoiler Me and dad were exploring what was either a museum or a research facility. We hadn’t broken in, it was a guided tour, with several other people. The scientists had somehow captured some Aliens (yes, from the film series of the same name) and were studying them. As we reached the 3rd floor, disaster struck as the Aliens got free and killed some people-including my dad. I became lucid and reversed time to the floor below. I managed to convince dad to not go up, and when we heard the sounds of the monsters escaping I found a window that wasn’t there before. Opening the window we jumped out from the 2nd floor and landed in a red sports car. Dad started the car and sped off as I punched a Facehugger off of dad.
Wow, your dreams are much more lucid than I was expecting. Certainly more lucid than anything I've had. I don't often remember what happens in my dreams, but I sometimes do remember the people. In one dream I had a few nights ago, the main character other than me was a girl who I don't recognize at all (they say faces in your dreams are populated by faces you've seen in life), but in the dream she seemed to be a realized version of the primary character of my current fanfic project and the incomplete mental picture I had for her. I deliberately dwelt on what I could remember, so I'm going to try to adapt what visuals and personality I can for this character to her. Though I just noticed, people in my dreams don't tend to have voices. They move their mouths and maybe make sound, but the communication is more telepathic. Hmm. In another recent dream (or maybe the same one, it seems to blend with the previous one), I was hanging out with someone (the girl from before?) at various places around town and around my home. This guy would always appear and pester us, but mostly pester me. Just always intruding into every moment and every conversation. I would mostly ignore him and go somewhere else, but he would always appear again, trying to break me. Eventually, he did, and I sternly said/shouted at him something like "why the hell are you bothering me? Just leave us alone! Surely you have something better to do." And that's when I noticed: this guy was me. Specifically, he was me from the past. Me with a bad easy haircut and careless fashion sense, frail and weak before I started getting healthy, with a scowl and arrogance and a nasty attitude. Me from the past, my inner archdemon, and I was trying to fight him the way I fight most of my demons: ignoring them until they go away. Everything I hate about myself and that I've changed about myself in the past year came back to haunt me in my dreams. It goes deeper than that, ways I don't want to share right now (I'm going to talk about him in a later podcast episode in a few weeks), but I'm glad I met him. I met my greatest enemy. I know him, and knowing is half the battle. And such a war it will be. Related, I notice that lately, when I'm physically exhausted (I tend to do strength training 1-2 hours before I sleep), I fall asleep sooner and dream more lucidly. Which means I can enter the dream world more easily than before. I am going to get stronger not only in the real world, but in the dream world too, and I will fight this inner demon. I will summon him, and I will fight him, and I will win; because I'm stronger than I was, and so I'm stronger than he is.
Most of my dreams are...interesting to say the least and I'll talk about a couple of them that I can think of from the top of my head: 1. Megaman X and Zero were running from something and Zero sacrificed himself so that X could escape. I didn't see what they were running from, but I would hate to imagine who or what it was. 2. My family and I were sitting around and doing something when from behind my brothers, I saw a flash of light that looked a lot like a nuclear explosion and with the size I think that it was a Tzar Bomb. Anyway, I watched as one by one we all incinerated. 3. I was running through our neighborhood, looking for the President for some reason (Obama was the president at the time) and a small nuclear explosion detonated right above me. I fell to the ground (That wouldn't have happened in real life, I would have immediately incinerated), I heard a voice that was telling me all the body parts that were being incinerated as it happened. These were the ones that I immediately thought of, I know that these were pretty weird but that won't beat my brother's dream of trying to rob people with a water bottle. X3
Yikes. Some pretty odd dreams. Most of the dreams I remember either have to do with my former crushes, or movies I like, or this weird one where I was searching for Solgaleo with my brother and my dad and after a while of searching I found out that my sister caught it. Haven't had a nightmare that I remembered in years.
I haven't lucid-dreamed in awhile, but it does happen. Last night, I dreamed that The Flintstones were trapped in a Soviet gulag. Pebbles and Bam-Bam had managed to escape, but Betty was dead and both Barney and Fred + Wilma were pretty old, so there wasn't much chance of their escaping. I would explain how I understand that dream to mean, but that would take awhile (and might be pretty controversial), so I'll leave that there. A few nights ago I was in the MHA world, and 1A was in a zombie-apocalypse survival-training exercise. I was in Izuku's body and as soon as the exercise began I began giving out orders to the other students (while being able to look down on the building we were in like a strategy-RPG) - I even gave that idiot Bakugo a thorough dressing-down when he tried to refuse to listen. Afterward, Yaoyorozu approached me and asked me who I was, since I wasn't acting like Deku (and let's face it, she's definitely one of the smartest students there); I explained that I didn't know how I got into Izuku's body, only that it happened. Some other stuff happened, but I can't remember the rest of it.
I've had too many weird dreams... I don't lucid dream though. There was a dream I once had about LV... Ryan was trying to get me to call him cute (smh imagine that. disgusting). And then I woke up. I have never slept since.
I know you guys are sick of hearing his name, but I feel the need to share these dreams. I feel like they actually predicted the future. Spoiler: What I did In case you didn’t know, I went to Logan Paul’s house earlier this month. Shocking, right? Spoiler: Dream 1 (Yes, there’s more than one) I don’t remember this dream very well, but I think I was doing some stuff with Logan Paul, as if we already knew each other well.(Bear in mind all these things happened before I decided to go to his house) It was probably the longest one I had. Spoiler: Dream 2 This one happened a day after the first one. The only thing I remembered was hugging him(ew). I had to cleanse myself in every way after that dream. Spoiler: Dream 3 This one happened after we planned the trip. Logan Paul did not appear in this one, but his house did. I went to his house and found that there was an entire civilisation there. It probably represented my fear of failure, as he did not appear. There are still a few similar ones, but I don't remember them much. Other than the ones about him, I had some pretty weird dreams from a long time ago. Spoiler I got birds when I was really little(and I still have some now). I had two of them, one green and one blue. I wanted a third one, and I had this dream of me getting a third bird. It was yellow. A few weeks or months later, we bought a third bird, and it looked exactly like the one in the dream.
woo I had a doozy of a nightmare.. Spoiler Things started off fairly 'normal'. I lived in a suburban neighborhood with a 'stay at home mom' (she was clearly in some MLM, having way too much Tupperware for a normal family), a younger brother who was in a TCG League (either Pokémon or YuGiOh as I saw both of those franchises a lot in the house/around town), and a blue-collar job father. (None of these people I knew IRL, they looked similar to 80s-90s 'everyday family' type of people.) Dad's boss hated the idea that people needed to spend time with their families and would enforce late hours. We accepted it, but it wasn't enough for the boss. He did...something..and the next morning every working person became what they worked on! My mom became a giant walking Tupperware container and my dad a computer! People tried to ignore it and continue on with their lives, but within days people started going crazy-stuck doing their jobs for hours straight without breaks. I grew worried as mom tried to vacuum-seal my brother and dad started to not come home at all. As I rushed to find out what the heck was going on, I witnessed a living bus eat the people inside, including the man's daughter-in-law. In his crazed eating frenzy I was hit with bits of remains and heard him mutter about how his son and grand-kids didn't deserve her. I got extremely terrified at that and ran to the business dad worked at. The building was flooded with wires and living computers-which didn't even notice I was there. I made it to the boss, only to find him in a horrific state, all plugged up to each and every wire I had seen in the building. He managed to muffle out that he had made a horrible, irreversible mistake, before finally losing all sense of himself-just a battery to the machines. I left the building, rushing to find anyone still alive and not a inanimate object. I found my brother, but he was doing a TCG Tournament and refused to leave until it was done. I agreed and spent my time stealing items needed for survival- food that was starting to rot on shelves as most 'people' couldn't leave where they were to buy and eat, water, and any non-alive items such as phones, weapons, ect. Police couldn't stop me as they were cars stuck outside, and eventually my brother caught up with his own stolen goods. We were about to try escaping when I woke up.
I rarely remember any of my dreams, but the ones I do recall are always odd. Just like with my daydreams, none of them are very vivid visually. Outside of one exception, the backgrounds are always black voids. Spoiler: Recurring Nightmare Between Ages 4-11 I recall having this dream three times. The first two times played out exactly the same, while the third time had one detail different. The dream started with me doing ballerina in pink tutu on top of a green skyscraper. Just as I start to turn, I trip and fall. Moments before the impact, the dream would end and I’d wake up. During the third occurance of this dream, a large crowd with newscasters would form as I fell to my doom. Possible meaning: As a child, one of the few insecurities I had was my lack of masculinity. While other boys participated in sports and played outdoors, I stayed inside and read. The tutu, a stereotypically feminine piece of clothing, could have represented my tom-girl personal image. Spoiler: The Vulpix Eyes When I was eleven, I dreamt I was trapped in my Elementary School after dark. The only other people in there were my classmates, each one with Vulpix heads. Every time they looked at me, their eyes would flash red. While I was running away from a Vulpix-person, three surrounded me and started to attack. I woke up right after in a panic. Possible Meaning: This was around the time where I started to distrust other kids my age. This dream very well could have been my subconscious fear of what they could have done to me. Spoiler: My Only Lucid Dream At age 13, I dreamt I was walking with my Mom in the middle of the night. Suddenly, I realized it was a dream and that I would never see this version of my Mom again. I turned to her and gave her a hug before forcing my eyes open. Possible Meaning: I might have worried at the time that I would lose my parents since they were already approaching 60. Spoiler: My Only Vivid Dream At age 15, I dreamt I was sledding down a massive mountain by a snowy forest. I hit a rock and instead of falling straight down, I soared for about fifteen seconds. As I flew I noticed it was overcast, and that I could see everything for miles. I woke up on the floor just before the impact. Possible Meaning: This was around the time I developed my fear of heights. Spoiler: Recent Nightmare Last week, I dreamt I was in a chicken coop with a middle-aged blonde woman. She started to eat three chicken alive, by the tail first. Then she regurgitated each one by the head. During her disturbing meal, a male voice was lecturing me on nihilistic philosophy. Possible Meaning: I had an existential crisis a few weeks before I had this dream.
I am not a lucid dreamer, but I have had some odd dreams and yes, many of them have been predictions of the future. Its gotten to the point where I think that Dejavu moments are literally when you dream about a future event, but can't remember it when the event occurs because its so hard to remember dreams. Anyways onto dreams. I haven't had any recently but one odd dream I've had goes as follows: Spoiler This is my notes the moment I woke up from the dream a couple months ago and its not really meant for public eye so it may not read nice. A pair of travelers enter a sky themed abyss. One underwater section has a crustation with magically long life and control over a small race of sea dwellers. A maui like character (from moana, can you tell I watched moana recently) goes to claim it as he has something that belongs to him. He succeeds and becomes the new ruler of the ground it was the shell that gave power. Our pair finds him and defeats him and convinces him that we are on his side. Then the place starts to collapsing. Maui character holds a section of loose wall from opening up and lets our pair through. The old crustation comes back and tries to get past maui who is holding him back from getting to the other side. The crustation succeeds and is pulled out into the outside void along with everyone else (the outside void looks like the regular sky but with no ground). The crustation says, "I'm finally free from eternal life" before he's gone forever. As our pair flies away from the cave into the sky of the vertical shaft, they get close to the obvious edge of the abyss, beyond which is blue void. As they approach, they begin to see the whole abyss like a map. Then things change, no longer does it look like a vertical shaft, instead it becomes a moving plane contorting in all kinds of directions. Then the image of the abyss was replaced with their memories, there existence. As the images slowly faded and they were greeted with the eternal blue skies, their pet companion comes out of the either and magically moved them to the top of a roof of a house from the village they were at before deliving into the abyss. The pet says, "You can always return to the place you were yesterday." Weird dream. What actually made it weird was the last bit with the contortion of the plane. That really turned my head upside down. Bad puns aside, the feeling of that kind of shifting world mesmerized me and gave me vertigo as I couldn't really tell up from down. All my vision gave me was a distorted reality. Weird. Future sight dream: Spoiler This happened years ago, but the event was such proof of the idea dream predict the future that its permanently etched into my mind. So I was sleeping and I saw an odd dream of me standing in a line looking at the teacher at a roughly ten degrees to the right. I was third in a line of 4. Two similar lines were too my right and they were all facing the instructor in the front. The instructor said something, I can't remember now, but then I remembered it vividly. She also held out a card and hold it out in a sweeping motion so we'd all see it. There was something written on the card and I vividly remembered it when I woke up, but since have forgotten. Might I mention that everything was perfect clarity, there was no fuzzy parts, no maybes, I even recognized the teachers face it was so sharp. I even remembered my last thoughts before I woke up, "deja vu I think I saw this before". After waking up from such a vivid dream I thought it was interesting so I kept it in the back of my mind for 3 days and promptly forgot about it after that. 3 months later (roughly I wasn't counting the days only had a vague recollection of the month it occurred in) I was standing in line, doing a telephone game for my asl class where one person in front signs a word and passes it back the line. I sat third in the line shifted about 10 degrees to the right and heard the words spoken by my instructor. At the moment, I had completely forgot about the vivid dream and when I saw it, I was like "huh deja vu I...I'VE SEEN THIS BEFORE" There have been many other future sight dreams like this after the even, but none as clear and sharp. To this day, this dream has been the lintch pin in my mind that makes me believe that you can see the future through your dreams.
Oh man! Aw man!! I had like such a sweet weird dream a few days ago. I think almost everyone has a celebrity crush, and mine is Asa Butterfield~! Spoiler MAN HE IS SO TALL AND THIN AND FAIR AND BEAUTIFUL AND GORGEOUS, HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Uh, so. I had this dream when I spent like an entire day with him! Come on! Can this be reality, please!
My dreams are really boring in comparison to y'alls. There's one dream that I had like 10 years ago and I still remember it. I have no idea how I thought of it our what it means. Spoiler: The dream So Spongebob and Patrick were in Spongebob's bedroom and they had a laser gun gadget from Sandy that turned whatever it shot into pickles. They shot the ceiling fan, which blew around the smell of pickles. Then I woke up.
My dream yesterday was less weird than usual, but I thought it’d be interesting enough to share. Spoiler: The Bookstore I was walking through a large tube-shaped tunnel and noticed dozens of small children going the same direction. At the end of the tunnel was a staircase that went into a large bookstore. As I was about to go down, a little girl grabbed me by the arm and started pull me in circles (much like Mario does in Super Mario 64). After a few swings, she tosses me down the stairs. I got up and walked inside the bookstore. It somewhat resembled Powell’s Bookstore in Portland, but there weren’t as many shelves. I looked around for a few minutes and walked out with two books. As it started to rain outside, I received a jacket. I pulled the front up to cover my nose and grabbed the bag tighter. A moment later, a teenage couple wearing loose hoodies passed by (the standard fashion for youth in my state). The guy glared at me as I passed them and called me a profane name under his breath. I turned my head around and saw the two hold hands. I woke up a few seconds later from my phone’s alarm. Possible meaning: I’ve dealt with dozens of classmates who’d act up in front in front of me after hearing negative gossip. Most of them wore similar streetwear that didn’t fit very well. This dream might’ve been a reminder of those people.
