Hello everyone!

I have been lucid dreaming for years and dream-controlling for even longer.

Now the reason that I am posting is to discuss a dream that I am curious and confused about:

Roughly three weeks ago I was dreaming about a bunch of people that I knew. We were all in a run-down mansion searching for a treasure that was rumored to be there. Nothing "strange" yet. Eventually, I realized that the people in my dream were people that I knew in elementary school and really don't think of much. I then realized that I was in a dream.

Now, this is were things get weird. I realized that this dream was actually a direct continuation of a dream that I dreamt 20 years ago. My mind started to remember the old dream while dreaming this new one. The old dream featured these people in ages that would have been appropriate for the time, and the new dream had these people aged appropriately for now!

Is it common enough for a dream to be a continuation of one from years ago?
