One of the downsides of being a stoner, actually.

I wasn't saying that dreams were about nuances - I was referring to the details of the dreams themselves. Most dreams are wish fulfilment based around frustrations or conflicts.topal63 wrote:

Some dreams are:
1.) Not symbolic at all - they are often simply random firings of brain cells (synapses). It has been studied that many images / the dream focus - will be upon the last things you experienced before you began to sleep.
2.) Symbolic dreams are not as common, but much more memorable, often reoccur - and the details are generalizations of feelings of conflict.
I was agreeing with you actually, sorry for doing it in way... that seemed to you - to be a not.CameronPoe wrote:

Most of my dreams are vivid, they even seem more real than reality, they revolve around: sex, flying, violence, God, fear, compassion, helpless-ness, etc - basically the usual.
This is an old dream from my youth. I guess this falls into the weird category. I was walking to school one summer day. I had just gone up the metal crossing bridge, over the street, as I descended I saw a beautiful blond haired women. As I got down off the crossing and was at street level on the concrete walk she was much closer - she was beyond beautiful - her eyes crystal clear blue. As she looked at me, starred at me - her clothes blew away revealing a perfect woman’s body: hairless, flawless, her breasts perfect. Naked & perfect she approached me - as she did, angel wings opened from her back. I stood motionless. And, she turned slightly to my left. Then each of her breasts turned into a pig - and she burst into flames. As she stood there burning she smiled and looked towards the sky - then looked at me. She then become entirely flames, and I just stood their and watched her burn.

Then they would / or could fall into category 1: (not much) then they seem random - they are about the last thing few things you merely experienced.SargeV1.4 wrote:
My dreams are the exact opposite Topal: my dreams never make any sense, and the environments are dull. Two things that get on my nerves more than anything else: me being unable to make sense of anything and gray, miserable places. also, they often have symbolism of things I fear. On top of that they go from one thing to the other so spontaneously that unless in the one out of 100 dreams where it's about a single thing I can't follow what's going on. truly, spontaneous. No more than a few words or actions before it all changes again

Although I find the nights I don't have a spliff before bedtime I almost always have weird dreams I can remember.ATG wrote:

Most dreams are just visualizations of whatever is running through your brain. They usually have no practical meaning.SargeV1.4 wrote:
After reading the thread about dreams in the Junk Drawer, I couldn't help but remember all the times people've been talking about what their dreams/nightmares mean. It's a weird idea to me that what goes on a level below your conciousness is so clearly stated in dreams, but in the past few years just that has been happening to me. So I was wondering if anyone here would be so kind as to shed some light on the subject? Both experience or actual facts would be appreciated
