Recurring

Have you ever had a dream or nightmare that kept coming back? Do you do anything when the same dream or same symbol occurs? Or maybe just nothing?

Most people I know do not dream and they actually have trouble sleeping. Those who do dream, forget it the second they open their eyes. Up until now, they tell me there are one or two dreams that were the most memorable.

I know two people who have had the same nightmare every night for a few years. I don't know if they ever successfully resolved it. That was a fascinating experience for me to listen to. For the same thing to occur over a number of years is your mind desperately trying to communicate something to you.

There are psychics, dream dictionaries of symbols, articles and professionals and such that could be used to interpret and “solve” these mysteries. Online references are easily accessible and convenient as well. Would you pay for answers? Would you pay to see a professional?

When I was describing my dream experience with someone, I realized how frequent these two symbols were occuring. Once I realized this and acknowledged this, they actually stopped occurring as much. I didn’t solve anything. I acknowledge its existence.

I don't do anything with my dreams. I view my dreams as video clips. I don't try to read in between the lines. I don't do anything with recurring symbols. Why nothing? Just never thought they meant anything more and that just carried on = I have no habit of reading into them.

In the year 2023, I would like to try giving them more thought. If I put some focus on interpretation, I think I might find something interesting.

What do you do with recurring dreams/nightmares?

Are they visions to you? Or are they just a mental note kept aside for a rainy day?
