Personally this always makes me wonder how awesome our brain is.... it stores a lot of faces you've barely seen during the day and then recreates them in the dream with full detail... :)

It makes me wonder why our conscious memory is utter shit in comparison.
Exactly.... ^^Quote:

Two, I saw I have a pot from the stove. I remember I wanted to cook water (I don't know what I wanted to cook). I turned on the stove. The fire started. I tried to extinguish, but I can't. Although it is not a big flame.
Three, I saw I and a man were in a truck. There are a lot of dogs will be killed and cooked. I asked him to rescue them, but he refused. I asked, "why? You don't love animals?" "He said. Yes, I love them" and just smiling at me when I was blaming him.
Four, I saw a face of the man was very clearly. He is a young man, handsome. He's wearing a black veston and smiling at me, but didn't say anything. I said with myself, I must remember his face. And then, I woke up.
Well, can you tell me the meaning of the dream? Thank you. :)
Thats trippy i always have dreams and random people come out in them and sometimes a random girl that is cute is in my dream and i have never seen her before and i wake up and i get mad because i thought it was for reals and i wanted it to be for reals cus i wanted to really meet her. and i woke up from a dream that i had today and there was some cute girl in my dream and i liked her and she liked me. and i just kept thinking about her the rest of the day. i really hope i meet her later in my life. but its weird how people have these dreams. i think its a sign or something
Last night, I dreamed of somewhere I have never been and I was someone who I am not now... a different time... I was in my thirties, a young man and I was with someone I had known since childhood, another young man. We were moving into an apartment and I left something in the area below, however, I am a married woman and I don't know him or myself that I saw in the reflection of the door window glass. I felt a love that I do not know how I am able to feel. Strange? :)
It's not fantasy either, it's not emotions I made up. It's all real and it's a different time plane. I believe that.
I experience this in most dreams, dreaming about People I know that I've never met before and visiting and being in places I've never been yet I am so familiar with them in my dream. However I have a plausible theory which is quite simple.
Everyday we see thousands of images on tv and in crowds in outdoor life therefore our subconscious takes in all of these faces and places and they are never lost, just permanently stored in our minds. So our brain 'knows' these people subconsciously which comes out on our dreams.
Everything we dream about is our subconsciousness.
I've had dreams about this person for like, 6 years now. In the dreams we become really close friends and kind of fall for eachother.. I wonder if he's a real person and I wonder if I'll ever meet him. I hope I do.
i had a dream where i met a girl that i never knew, and then went some place the following weekend and saw the same girl. it was someplace that i had never been and this girl could not have been in any of my social circles, i was very odd
Most of my DCs are new people, but after some dgging on that issue, I have to agree with Ben. These people are just different personalities, usually they are totally into one thing (one opinion, point of view, attitude) and they just serve as a file in your brain's database of distinguishing people's characteristics. A few of these "new" DCs are just pointless and are creations of the moment that your brain builds up from its observed and sorted stereotypes, but don't serve a purpose. :blahblahblah: but I hope you get my point.
:cheers:
I get this alot, except that even thought I don't recognize their faces..I seem to know them somehow anyway, in some cases even have a very very strong emotional connection to them. I had this one dream a few weeks ago, where I was this rather handsome guy , the type of guy any woman could see and fall for, but i felt this unbelievable brother/sister connection with him and when he left , i forget now why or where he was going, I remember feeling empty and scared not for myself but for him as though if he left he would surley not exsist anymore, needless to say I havent dreamt about him since and it makes me kinda sad, I have a sister but no brother but I guess I have always wanted one so it was just my subconsious creating what my ideal of a brother would be :P
Well my dream was about 3 days ago about a really pretty girl she was perfect if any one can tell me how they met there dream preson so i know what to expect if it happens to me
I have had dreams about a guy I've never met for at least 3 years now. At first I thought it was just my imagination but it happens so much I'm starting to think it can't be my imagination.Quote:

But it's the recurring characters that are interesting. Yes most of the DCs seem to just be an actor/actress in a play, and if you stray from the storyline (become lucid) most of the DCs seem lost and have no idea what to say.
I've had one character that I've never met before that has been in at least 30 of my dreams. And everytime I have a dream with him on it I instinctively know he's not like the other DCs. He knows way too much and seems more lucid than I am. :? I've come to suspect that he may be some kind of dream guide (haven't heard of that term until recently) since he has, on more than one occasion, pointed out that I was dreaming. :-?
That's awesome reverie, I want to meet that sort of character as well. Probaly a personalisation of your subconscious? That's what I believe dream guides are. They are you, the you behind everything you do. Each to his own though.
I think the people you've never seen in real life you have actually seen, it's probaly a face you've unconsciously stored in your brain. How can you dream of something you have never seen?
Edit: By that I mean people who you saw walking down the street or whatever.
I think what our mind does is combine the different things we've seen into one coherent image. So say the DC's I've never seen before, perhaps my mind is taking a face from someone I've seen before (from school/the streets/on tv, etc.), then uses someone else's hair, and someone else's body type, thus creating someone that looks new to me. :P
What do you think? Sound plausible? :-?
And the 'dream guide'/subconscious character is an extremely helpful aspect in my dream. Not sure where he came from but am thankful for the experiences. I've heard some people say to try calling out to your dream guide/subconscious and see who shows up. ;P Might be fun to try out. :)
Definitely a possibility. I will definitely try that out the next time I become lucid, just gotta remember it. My memory is always a bit foggy when I'm lucid and I can't seem to recall well. Really gotta learn to WILD.
The last time I called out to my spirit guide/dream guide (anyone :P ) no one showed up. XP Just a huge expanse of blackness. :? I was just like, 'okay..' and went somewhere else. I'd like to try it again and see what happens, but I have the same problem where some of my lucids are kind of fuzzy. I think it comes with practice and experience. :) Are you keeping a dream journal? My first few entries are like one to three sentences, but now they're whole pages full. ;-)Quote:

I have to agree, Precog dreams are kickass. I have had many through out the course of my current life time.Quote:

I would suggest keeping his face in mind, you may be meeting the man of your dreams in the near future.Quote:

Sounds slightly nuts until the DC starts taking you to places that don't resemble the world we live in.Quote:

It's too bad I'm not that coherent yet in my dreams. :cheeky: I'd love to be able to just sit down and talk to one of these characters/entities to get some more feedback on who they are and what not. :PQuote:
