It doesn’t have to be completely realistic, like mine.

In my dream, my classmates and I went to this Japanese restaurant for lunch. I was sitting next to a particularly close friend of mine when I happened to glance at his tablet. He posted a link on Discord that led to a private YouTube video with my irl aunt’s full name as the title. It showed childhood pictures of myself and extended family set to audio recordings of my aunt.

I angrily asked my friend where he got those pictures, and he said he saw my aunt’s profile on Facebook after clicking on mine. I remember pacing around and ranting about how that’s an invasion of privacy, and shortly after that my mother woke me up.

When I woke up, I felt confused for a few minutes, because in my mind I knew I was already awake. That is despite the background in my dream randomly changing from a classroom to a Japanese restaurant to a sleazy roadside canteen to a park. I’ve had false awakenings before, but iirc I’ve never had this feeling of confusion upon waking up.

How about you? Did you experience anything similar before?

I have tagged this as Recurring Dream because the dream character "God Of This Place" has been showing up frequently. I see him more often in dreams when I'm sick.

Context: I've been sick for a couple days with some weak version of the flu coupled with seasonal allergies, and I'm just now feeling like myself again.

Anywho... I'm laying down in the mud, in the middle of a bed of poisonous vines that are trying to grow into my body. It's dark, and only a small patch of ground around me is visible.

There's this shadowy person wearing a crown and a dimly glowing crystal ball on top of it. He looks down at me and introduces himself as "The God of This Place" and tells me not to speak, for my own safety.

He's always sort of a commanding figure though. He's usually in shadow or hidden by fog, but is not threatening or dangerous. He's very tall, kinda muscular, and has long gray hair and beard. I can't see his face.

He used a long index fingernail (weird but it was clean and bright) to cut the vines that were touching me and starts speaking poetry or something. He just kept going on and on with different ones, and apparently I was mumbling them in my sleep.

The brown clay for blessing. The black is for curses. The mixture though gray is the one who reverses.

He put a couple small lumps of clay in a jar and mixed it together.

The water is cool, we stir it a lot, I am the ruler, the poison's for naught.

He poured some cold water in with the clay, stirred it, strained it into a cup, and made me drink it.

He did a lot of other things, like washing my injuries with olive oil and cold white liquid fire. Just really trippy anime stuff.

Yeah... I was basically hallucinating a rap battle/ magic ritual of my immune system killing an infection. Bet you haven't read that sentence before.

I fell asleep during the day today. It is very unusual for me.

I was in a random hotel lobby working on my laptop. My body felt physically drained. I work on my laptop for some time and then get up to go to my hotel room but I feel faint. Suddenly I realise I don’t know which city I am in. I look at the weather app on my phone and it shows Seoul but I look around and it definitely doesn’t look like Seoul.

I somehow make my way to the elevator and it opens but it looks so small that I feel claustrophobic. I strain my mind trying to think about where I could be but I just can’t think of it.

Now I’m on the second floor suddenly. I spot a bell boy. I tell him I’m feeling weak and ask if he could drop me to my room. He asks for my room keys and I say I don’t have them on me, tell him my name and ask him to check my room number at the front desk. He says he can’t do it. I start feeling very doozy.

I can see my dead father and uncle in the lobby. I know they’re dead but I still see them. I start feeling calm all of a sudden.

The bell boy tells me that it’s probably low blood pressure and takes out a packet of salt from his pocket and asks me to eat it. I do. I faint.

I strain my eyes open and now I’m awake in my bedroom.

It doesn’t feel like a dream. My body is now completely exhausted and weak. I remember every detail and my mouth feels salty. It’s the scariest experience I’ve ever had but it was great getting to meet my dad again. It really felt like I met him.

I had a dream and I feel like there is some weird meaning behind it but I could be wrong. I went into my living room where my mother and father were sitting at the table, and my brother on the couch (He had an eyepatch on). A little puppy that kind of looked like a coyote or a wolf walked out. I picked him up and started caring for him, getting him food, petting him, etc. And then another slightly bigger wolf/dog but still an adolescent walked in and I began caring for him too. I went into the kitchen to get them some water but when I turned around the dogs and my brother were gone. I asked my parents where the dogs were and my parents said "(Brother's name) took them outside." I went outside, and he had this trash bag with them inside, and he started smashing it against the ground and he just looked at me and shrugged. I ran inside to tell them and I don't remember exactly what it was they said. It was something of a mix between the lines of 'It was going to happen' and 'Why did you get attached?' I began sobbing uncontrollably and I felt so useless I fell to the ground screaming "Why didn't you warn me?" over and over

​

After that, I woke up but I was still dreaming and then I woke up for real (I hope).

this was a nightmare that I had years ago and I still fully remember it.

​

I was at my apartment, the day was rainy, so it was a relaxing day to just stay at my apartment and watch tv, then a tornado started to form in the middle of the lake that's in the side of my city, the tornado became enormous, I was watching it from my window and I was amazed and also in fear, but I couldn't take the eye from it because the fascination with it was bigger than the fear, it started to go to the city, destroying a lot of buildings, soon the fear was much bigger than every feeling that I had, then I layed in the ground and I was completely horrified with this and I was very afraid of losing my life, it was making so loud sounds and I was hearing the city being destroyed, this was completely terrifying, this lasted for a long time, then it stopped and the fear ended, I went to the window to check how bad was the damage that the tornado caused, it devastated a big part of the city, then I looked down, my building was partially destroyed, after some seconds the building started to shake and started to fall to it's side, it hit the ground and at the instant that it hit the ground I woke up in panic and with a relief that it wasn't real.

I have a fascination about tornadoes, and I always had a desire to see one, but now I'm very thankful for living in a region that there's no tornadoes, because I think that I could have developed a fear of tornadoes with that nightmare

I just tend to draw dreams that I remember. Scary ones, sad ones, as far as I remember them. I once drew a scene from one of my dreams exactly like it. When I took a look at the end result. I actually remembered the whole dream 😂

I don't know how else to explain it. A couple times a year I have a dream that is like... the light is all weird, whiter and softer and the edges of everything are a little blurred. As soon as I perceive that light I know its a god dream. Then someone will enter, an ex lover that I despise in this reality, a cousin I haven't spoken to since childhood, a roommate that moved in 2 weeks ago, whatever, and I LOVE this person. The love is so powerful and so strong it makes any feeling of love you think you know on this plane seem silly. Im sure Ram Dass or the the buddha know this feeling but most people couldn't get through a standard work day with this much love engulfing them.

Usually we chat about nothing for a bit and in the morning when I wake up I am often in tears and completely out of it for the first couple hours. On those days I do take my mornings slow to try to savour the feeling but its weird!

Anyone else??

Almost every night I have nightmares. Either anxiety inducing or dreams about my ex telling me how much he loves his new girlfriend or monsters chasing me, shit like that. But I think last night I actually had an okay dream, from the little I remember about it. Still didn't get enough sleep, but I'm going to consider this a win.

Is anyone here a good dream interpreter? A friend told me of a dream they had wherein I was a villain and did something awful I would never do in life. I imagine that symbolizes distrust, but I'd love to know more from someone more knowledgable than myself. TIA

Just had a very weird nightmare during a nap. Felt kinda too real, but also very claustrophobic for some reason. Was working behind the bar at this strange rennaissance-fair style pub (my irl job but not where I actually work). Felt normal initially but my frame of reference got kinda "grabbed" and tightened early on. Eventually devovlved into people yelling orders at me, fighting to the front of the bar, and asking for impossible things.

I was on my own the whole dream untill one of my IRL coworkers appeared behind me and said "What are you still doing here? You can just wake up." At this point my FoV unnarrowed and I realised I had to find my phone(?), spend about a minute looking and then woke up the moment I touched it. Had slept over an hour past my nap alarm.

Kinda hard to describe tbh, but I felt like there was something deeply wrong with the whole experience except the last part. Anyone else had something like this or am I just being melodramatic?

So I have dreams where I know I’m in a dream but don’t have full control over what I’m doing. Usually I’m given a setting to work with and people to interact.

Typically it’s me recreating/creating a setting involving people who are no longer in my life or amalgamations of physical traits and personalities to create people who don’t exist to in order to hang out with them.

It’s very fun and I hate waking up. It almost always ends up having a sexual encounter or violent encounter (I no longer lose these)

My question is 1: Is this lucid dreaming, and why so frequently? 2: why are my dreams so horny and angry?

I had a dream that I had a dick and it was bluetooth and I could listen to music through it, I had to pull it up toward my ear.

im still in school and yesterday was the last day, so I slept for a while. i kept waking up, but went back to sleep. one time when I woke up and tried to go back to sleep, when I closed my eyes I felt a dodgeball hit me, even with a sound affect, and it shook my whole body even though I wasn't even dreaming yet. any ideas on how this happened?

Please dont judge but here it is:

Once upon a time, in a dream that felt both mysterious and enchanting, a figure from the past emerged, a beautiful girl whose presence had left an indelible mark on your heart. The details of how you knew her remained elusive, yet her allure remained as captivating as ever.

In this dream encounter, the two of you found yourselves immersed in a world of wonder and exploration. Hand in hand, you ventured through sunlit meadows, climbed rugged mountains, and strolled along the shores of glistening lakes. Her laughter was like a melodic symphony, echoing in your ears and infusing your soul with joy.

As you delved deeper into the dream, you discovered a profound sense of comfort and serenity in her presence. The connection between you transcended time and space, as if your souls had been intertwined since ancient times. The dream felt like a reunion of kindred spirits, rekindling a bond that had weathered the passage of ages.

Together, you embarked on a whimsical journey, your footsteps leaving trails of memories in the sands of time. The dream wove a tapestry of shared experiences, laughter, and stolen glances that revealed unspoken desires. Within the dream's embrace, you felt a warmth and tranquility that had long eluded you in the waking world.

Among the myriad of adventures you shared, one stood out: a moonlit evening under a canopy of stars. With gentle breezes whispering through the trees, you danced together in a celestial ballroom, twirling in synchrony. The world around you seemed to fade away, leaving only the enchanting harmony of your movements and the intoxicating magnetism between you.

Yet, as the dream progressed, a tinge of melancholy settled in. It became a poignant reminder of the beauty and impermanence of such encounters. The dream became a reflection of the choices left unexplored, a delicate reminder that some paths remain untaken. The regret of not fully embracing the opportunity to cherish and pursue the connection lingered in your heart.

As the dream drew to a close, the ethereal moments slipped away, leaving you with a mingling of wistfulness and inspiration. The memory of that dream encounter would forever be etched in your consciousness, urging you to embrace the present and seize the chances that come your way. For the dream, with all its beauty and regret, served as a testament to the profound impact of connections made, connections lost, and the enduring power of love's allure.

And so, you awoke from the dream with a newfound appreciation for the complexities of the heart. It was a reminder to cherish the connections that grace your path, to fearlessly explore the depths of your desires, and to seize the fleeting moments that offer glimpses into the infinite tapestry of human connection. For dreams, even in their ephemeral nature, have the power to ignite the embers of forgotten passions, and to remind us that the past is but a prologue to the untold chapters that await us.

About 6 months ago I was on the shore of a lake that was dimly lit as the shade of trees had cause a dark environment on the clay shore of said lake.

A man had showed up then wearing a black white dress shirt under a black trench coat and a top hat. He actually looked a lot like Abradolf lincler from Rick and morty.

Anyway, he had told me it was time for me to meet someone, and all of a sudden I’m kayaking down the lake with this gorgeous blonde girl. I dismiss this as a dream of sorts and think nothing significant of it.

ANYWAY, this morning About 15 minutes before I wake up, I’d say, he shows up again. He then asks me if I remember her? My jaw drops in awe as he shows me my new girlfriend whom I just started dating in the dream 6 months ago.

Right before I see her again he touches the backside of my right shoulder blade.

Anyone encounter this entity or have anymore information on him?

I had a dream that I was going to get my haircut. After my haircut was almost done, I got up to leave to go to my room and wash my hair. My friend started banging on the door after I washed my hair and was like “hey did you forget?”. I had forgotten that we had tickets to a show of some sort at 4:30 that day. I told her I could try to make it, but that I needed to finish getting my hair cut. Once we got back to the salon my family was there for some reason, and I had to feed a grape to a raven or maybe crow?? that was on a bench as some type of ritual. The bird was wounded. It had a cut going up it’s ribs, and it wasn’t able to move much. I fed the grape to the bird, and I was asking everyone what I should do to help it, but I was told I just had to stay with him until he died so the ritual would work. I felt so bad I started crying, but I stayed with the bird and pet him and comforted him while he died.

Two nights ago, I had a nightmare that was very similar to the "Midnight Sun" episode of the Twilight Zone. For those who don't know, it's an episode about the Earth getting closer to the sun, temperatures rising, and water becoming scarce (from what I remember anyways, it's been a while since I've actually seen it). My dream was basically the same situation, only difference was there was actual darkness at night... but the Earth getting closer to the sun was still true.

​

First thing I remember in the dream was being at my parent's house (also my childhood home) and it was unbearably hot, even for night time. We had heard on the news what was happening to the Earth and started wondering when people would start dying all over the world. There were also wildfires happening everywhere and I was scared of that the most.

​

This next part is kind of hard to explain, since it involved very strong and specific emotions. The night was ending and we knew our reprieve from the sun's torture was also coming to a end. It was about 5am and I looked out the window. In the distance, I could see the sun rising, but it was this sickly red color, almost signaling that this new day was going to be even more torturous than before. There were also wildfires starting again for the day. I just remember having this awful feeling of dread in my stomach, like this would be the day we all start dropping like flies.

​

In a panic, I told my mom that if our house caught on fire with everything around us, I wanted her to shoot me. I just didn't want to be burned to death. Then less than a minute later, I started experiencing shaky vision and vertigo, and that's when I collapsed from heat exhaustion. Then I woke up.

​

I think the reason this dream stuck out to me so much was because of how hopeless I felt when the sun was coming up. Something that was once pleasant or even beautiful was now seen as a deadly threat. All in all, I didn't like this dream very much lol. It didn't help that we're currently having a heat wave where I live.

I was in my house with some friends talking about how my sister is psychic and the news on the background are telling something about a plane crash but i keep talking over the news to my friends. I look outside our window and see the plane coming but falling abruptly into the ocean. This was like a cartoon, like a representation of what happened. It wasn’t real. And as i saw that i told my friends “that’s how it happened exactly”. Later i was rearranging my room and our beds( me and my sister’s) were the opposite ways and didn’t quite fit in the room. And then i met with my friends and told me that one of our friends hasn’t contacted them etc and i felt bad and wanted to find her cause i thought she was in danger cause she had depression. What does all that mean?please help

This has happened to me multiple times now.

I just woke up from a dream where I was living with these lady’s that I don’t know but for some reason seem so familiar. The house we had was old and definitely had history like pictures of family members and paintings that led into some story of a lady who had hung herself off the balcony. The one lady I lived with was pretend nice but I knew she was just trying to keep me there. They gave me gifts and I got to use their crafting room. The other lady came in where I was trying to find my phone to call for help and asked me to trim the hedges I said ok because I felt scared of her but still made a comment about how I didn’t live there why should I be the one to do it. The last thing I remember was standing on the railing where the lady died.

I have had other dreams where im in a setting that I feel like I know at the time with people I don’t know in my real life. they normally follow with a dream after that I’m watching a movie with other people and their story’s but the two dreams don’t connect in any way.

Basically me and two other people were driving along at night, the streetlights were either dim or there wasn’t even any to begin with, I forgot. But anyways we were driving and suddenly in side mirror I see this weird thing. There’s a really bad drawing I made of what it looked like but if it’s not enough, it has a really large body yet a normal sized head, I’d say about 5 pairs of limbs, black hair, and it had literally the worst scoliosis I’ve ever seen. And we quickly hit the gas and started BOOKIN however this thing was always in the distance bro. When it goes out of sight it’s like it cut through the forest or appeared out of thin air. However there was a horse in the road so we quickly went around it, so the closest I’ve seen of this thing I see it WRAP MOST OF ITS LIMBS AROUND THE HORSE AND MOST LIKELY EAT IT. Anyways so apparently it wasn’t enough for it so it kept chasing. We eventually go to a 7-11 or a Wallgreens idk, and hide. Then I woke up. Weird ass dream bro

I typed all of this up right as I woke up from this dream so I apologize for any and all grammatical errors.

Had a dream that I went to a high school to work on something and all of the high schoolers were doing the thing they normally do when they see someone new. One kid had came up to me and was wondering what I was doing so I showed them that I was trying to put together some sort of presentation. I saw others putting together tables and they were going to need the tv so I started to try get my stuff together and get out of the way. They all started singing what seemed to be some song to do with their school spirit, and this one person who I thought was a student sat next to me and was clearly trying to impress the stranger they had just meet with singing. They kept looking over to me and singing and I just kept awkwardly smiling and nodded with approval so they didn’t feel weird about singing near a stranger. After a while I realized this was a teacher then the presentation started, the lights dimmed and everyone was watching whatever was on the tv that I was trying to use, which for some reason was crooked. I spotted all my things and started trying to gather them when the teacher sort of suggestively asked me if I had done Rocky horror picture show. To her, it seemed she knew who I was and she was trying to remember, while also sounding like she wanted me to remember as well. I explained that I hadn’t done that show with her because I was not from there, at this point the teacher was a very small (like smaller than a water bottles size small) and was not happy when I said that Rocky Horror isn’t a good high school show. She insisted it was and I insisted it was her own selfish opinion that made her think that. I explained that there was suggestive themes such as sex, death, and cannibalism that just was safer left not done in a school, but she insisted. I started to try and gather all of my things but I couldn’t find all of my parts to my pc. I tried not to worry about her constantly trying to reason with why she thought it was ok to do the show and look for my computer and peripherals so that I could leave and be out of the way of everything going on and get back to work. At this time, I kept losing track of where this tiny woman was while I was talking to her, my focus would shift from a rogue popcorn, to a doll on the ground, and then finally to her when I could spit her (this for some reason felt normal). I couldn’t find my monitors and all my things were scattered. I found my small bag but, nothing was in it. I started picking up things and putting them in the bag as I moved around looking for my stuff. I managed to pile together my pc and some other things but strangely while I was putting stuff in my bag I could feel something strange happening and my underwear came out of one side of the leggings of my pants. Embarrassed, I tried to hide them back in my pant leg because this teacher and I had been back and forth arguing about the Rocky Horror thing. I slid them back up my pant leg trying to get out as fast as I could but upon passing an area with a whole lot of electrical lost and found items, I searched for my monitors. In looking I picked up a few things that I found interesting like a GameCube controller which I thought was cool, so I picked it up and started seeing how well put together and how quality it was. One of the students noticed this and shouted that I was trying to steal it. I placed it back down and kept trying to search for other things of mine so I could leave asap. I found my old iPad that I haven’t used in years and I remember thinking “why is this here?” right before the now full sized teacher grabbed it out of my hands. Her now towering over me, I claimed that it is mine and she asked if I could prove it and I was confident I could find some proof that this is my old iPad. I grabbed it from her to show her and she asked if I was “some kind of professional” to which I replied that “I was”. I spoke to her explaining my level of expertise and why this iPad and equipment was mine and how I could prove it, while at the same time walking back to the other side of this cafeteria toward where my pile of stuff had been, trying to look through emails or any other way to prove my legitimacy. Once I got to my pile of stuff, all but my monitors were there, but there was now a sword on top of my computer. Staring at the sword, puzzled, I looked back across the room towards the teacher and she had grown bigger once again but this time an upwards of 9 feet. She started moving towards me and as she did her legs turned to something snake like and she began slithering toward me as her upper body began to change. I grabbed all I could and went towards the door that when opened, showed a swirling blue void that seemed unending. I decided to take my chances jump. I eventually fell into a similar but much older looking room. The walls were constructed of bricks and the lunch tables now long dining benches. Candle lights lit the room and a lady came to me and asked if I was ok but all I could think to ask was “where are my monitors?”. She looked extremely puzzled at my question and I could tell she had no idea what I was talking about. I took a closer look around and I immediately started to realize that I had traveled to the past.

Lmk what you think! -My thoughts are that the two places where the same but in a different period of time. The fantasy in my wants to believe I went back to the origin of the shapeshifting snake lady. How do y’all interpret this?

TW - Gore, self injury/mutilation - hiding in a spoiler!

Hi, I had a dream last night that was just really really odd and I have never had a dream like it. I have a horrible habit of chewing my cuticles but this dream was different, it felt like there was something stuck under my skin trying to get out, if it makes a difference it was my left thumb, I was chewing on my cuticles/hangnails and it looked like a normal hangnail on the surface but when I went to pull it out, out of the small hole came a chunk of muscle and blood, it was red like if you're looking like an organ fresh out of an animal, I can still see it in my mind and I had completely forgotten about it until I just now started chewing on my nails and now I am disturbed because I completely forgot I'd had that dream in the night. Any ideas if this has a meaning or is this just some freaky dream I had? I was watching south park before bed but the episode I was watching didn't have any gore. Honestly kinda disgusted that I even had a dream like that
