Thread: I want to know what it means...

If anyone could tell me it would be great this dream effeted me much.
Waking life-I was planning on watching shooting stars that night.
Dream- all I saw was shouting stars for awhile, it was nice.
But then I heard a song, sounded sad, the stars disappeared and was replaced with a young boy with long hair screaming and covering his ears, the song grew louder.
I woke up and found myself on a sofa and the TV was on and the song from my dream was playing.
Since then my dreams have been that same one,changing often but the same basic idea.

Hello,

It sounds like your dream was processing your waking experience from that day combined with the input from the television.

The shooting stars were probably what you had thought about when you went to sleep, so they kept going in your dream. The soundtrack comes directly from the tv - it's quite frequent for people to incorporate the sensations around them into their dreams. For instance, if someone in a sleep experiment has a bit of water sprayed on their hand, they will dream of water. Likewise, if an alarm clock fails to wake a person up, they might instead incorporate the sound into their dream such as perhaps a train whistle. So you were listening to the song from the tv and it worked into your dream and influenced the imagery. The boy screaming was perhaps to account for other noise from the television; whether actual screaming or simply the fact that the tv was making a racket. Possibly it was even the noise of the tv that woke you up.

If you've continued to dream about the imagery...if it affected you as you say and you've been thinking about it, perhaps you're just dreaming about what's on your mind, same as with the shooting stars, only now it's a dream that's on your mind?

I do think that the dream has too much daytime influence to carry symbological meaning.

Hope that helps!

Thank you for the help...Maybe it was all the TV, But I also wonder if there is any other meaning, like the stars mean something other then the fact that I wanted tyo see them.
Wonder?

Sounds to me like you were so heavily effected by this dream that it's just been boggling your mind a lot, and you've kept on dreamining it because of that, which boggles your mind even more. Sort of feeding itself, but it's nothing to worry about.

I have been thinking of this dream alot, it has effected my waking life, really confusing when you think about it huh?
The fact that I have been been thinking about it so I dream about it.
