Sad to see there is still no reply, but I'd like to report that I think there was some effect.
Firstly, I'd like to note I took a shit load of Valerian root, some soya lecitin, and L-Arginine pror to bed because I couldn't sleep and the valarian on its own was useless. The other two had weak supporting evidence for sleep and nothing of note that I found for dreams, but still.
I had about 10 really weird and vivid dreams, though I only recall about 3 of them at the moment. They were definitely more in number and vividness than I'm used to. topics were all neutral to pleasant, though I won't go into details. All were pretty odd in nature, the gist of them being:
-zombies taking over and me and several others locking ourselves into a rather well supplied school pantry.
-the moon disappearing and the earth experiencing global disaster, leaving me and a bunch of other people left on the recovering earth
-And finally, my favorite for some reason (and also another seemingly apocalyptic dream...hopefully not a warning lol), one where I was a sherif or something and was kind of at war I guess in the middle of some small towns with some kind of rival group. There were 3 bears we kept as pets, very friendly. In the end, after the war was won, my goal was to create some ice cream shops and prisons in the old houses that were left.
So yeah, odd stuff. I think I experienced lucidity in the second one. After them moon sucked inside itself and disappeared, the earth started to do the same (this portion was in the 3rd person, watching the entire earth/moon). I started to feel a panic and said no no no and it reversed itself. So yeah.
If the shamans of africa are anything to go by, these dreams could signal the end is near and I will be the person that leads humanity to safety. Neat.
