What does /sci/ fags think about the meaning of the dreams?

>>	Anonymous Sun Apr 24 23:56:13 2011 No.2945850 Depends on the individual having them.

>>	Anonymous Sun Apr 24 23:57:13 2011 No.2945852 They mean our brains are working. Psychological significance? Haven't got a clue, aside from, "dreams reflect what are important to you."

>>	Anonymous Sun Apr 24 23:57:13 2011 No.2945859 Meaning of dreams? Or the cause of dreams? We are generally more into "How" than "why"

dreams are pulled out from your subconscious randomly.

but they can underline something that is worrying you, or a intrest in something can reappear in a dream, but if you have a dream that you are doing something that you don't agree with, ex. raping someone, don't sweat, it doesn't mean you will have a desire to rape people, it just is something that influenced you to think about that.

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 25 00:27:13 2011 No.2945991 I know what the real meaning of dreams are. You'll have to wait till my book comes out before I post that information on the internet

Dreams are always a rehashing of your mind's subconscious. Last night I was on here and I had mentioned a few times some things about LSD. What do you know? I dreamt about being on LSD and using a message board where some guy who was named "Lupin" threatened to kill me.

Does it mean anything? No.

Do your dreams, OP, mean anything? No.

Shut the fuck up.

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 25 00:30:13 2011 No.2946014 >>2945948 universal fears like falling, or universal desires such as love would be the most likely reason. There are more similarities in our thinking than one might expect.

maybe it isn't your mother, just perhaps a dream character that reoccurs a lot.

if you really don't want that to happen anymore, or feel uncomfortable with it, look into lucid dreaming, which means you control your dreams,

this is the best website for it

>>2946081

nah, I'm not to worried about it, but it's not just a recurring character, since i "know" it's my mom in the dream,

I dont make to much of a fuzz about it, i think it's quite normal actually, i mean there is a reason the ancient Greeks wrote all those incest stories

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 25 00:57:13 2011 No.2946133 Since this is a dream thread, what are some suggested methods of inducing lucid dreaming? And have you also been able to induce it yourself?

>>2946133
Slow controlled breathing until you feel nearly weightless and feel as if you are losing consciousness. After this point, you can fall asleep and sometimes lucid dream, but that only works like 30% of the time, most of the time you have to wait until sleep paralysis. Thing is that you won't know when you get paralyzed, so you could fuck up and have to start all over. The process takes about 30 minutes at least, good luck.

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 25 01:04:13 2011 No.2946168 I only ever dream the near future or watching people kill each other with straight faces. I'm glad I don't dream anymore.

Anonymous Mon Apr 25 01:11:13 2011 No.2946200

>>2946164

that would be for a WILD technique, which you would have to do after a dream or REM period.

>>2946164

and yes, dream journals are good, but i think you DILD more, which is mostly realizing you're dreaming.

those both techniques are good, but i'm a MILD type of guy, worked for me lots of times, even though i have DILD'ed and WILD'd.

Most effective method I've had success with is setting an alarm on my cell phone to go off three times a day. 9am, 3pm, 9pm. When it does, I ask myself repeatedly, "Am I dreaming?" to which the answer of course is no. I've had at least one lucid dream every 10 or so days. Some do become ruined because I become "too aware" of the dream and actually wake up, but more times than not it's legitimately lucid and I have altered dreams in my favor.

>>2946200
Actually, its either lucid dream or bust for me. There are also times where I just randomly know that I'm lucid dreaming and do whatever I want, and then there are times when I go with the flow. I sometimes get bored with lucid dreaming honestly.

>>2946187
99% of my lucid dreams are on my back. It's my most uncomfortable sleeping position, but it helps you stay awake.

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 25 01:15:13 2011 No.2946233 >>2946228 >Randomly know that I'm dreaming and lucid dream fixed.

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 25 01:16:13 2011 No.2946240 >>2946215 i think what you mean when you get too aware, is that you get excited, i dunno but lucidity is very easy to maintain, just spin in circles, rub your hands, touch the dream environment, it enhances your dream senses and makes it realistic.

Longest lucid dream guys?

I've had one that went on for what felt like 30 minutes or so. I have a huge list of things that I always wanted to do, and I could have done them, but I just didn't. I sat there for a while until I woke up, mostly because the thing I wanted to try the most didn't work.

Same Thing that i did. I was compeletly awe struck, like the feeling was of utter freedom. I woke up feeling I could do anything that day. I now know what a perfect day feels like, and what awe struck truly means.
>mfw I woke up from that dream
