dream interpretation

Hello, not sure if this is the right forum but it seemed to fit the subject in question the closest...

Anyway last night I had a dream which puzzled me, I shall keep it brief:

I was staying in a hotel room with 2 of my female friends, these friends I have no romantic feelings towards them at all, they are good looking but I do not see them as any more than friends and as a result will most likely not date them.

Anyway, we were in this hotel room and there was only one single bed, I went to get changed ready for bed in my normal bed wear (just pj trousers or pants for you in the US :P) and I over heard one of the friends say "wait until he comes out, he has a gorgeous body" (I work out in real life but I'm not exactly Arnie..) so I come out and they start acting all flirty towards me and we all get into bed and they both start carresing me and eventually, we have a 3some.

So what does this mean? Normally I will not be asking if I saw both the girls in that way but, as mentioned earlier, I don't so am a bit confused to what my brain/subconscious is trying to tell me, I didn't see any of them yesterday or for a week previously and they are not exactly best friends of mine (i.e. I don't speak to them much really, they are more friends of friends)
Any ideas?

P.s I am male
 
Technically while you're sleeping, your brain is still widely active, just in a different way. You experience thoughts that are not filtered through your levels of consciousness, and these thoughts are dreams. This is why some dreams can be very odd, yet they seem normal while you are dreaming them.

Dream interpretation is a very touchy subject and the most reliable person to interpret your dreams would be yourself. Many of the times your dreams don't have a significant meaning, while other times they reflect your own conscious thoughts and feelings.

It could be that the dream was meaningless. Or it could reflect on something going on in your life. The issue is largely subjective.
 
Dreams are very nuts. Check out dreamviews.com if you want to learn about lucid dreaming. I am not too good at it yet, but from what Ive been able to experience in my own life, it is about as close as you can get, maybe even better, to LSD. Your brain is very powerful, even under the influence of nothing, you can experience highs never even thought possible. At least I have.

As for your dream in specific. It is hard to tell. Keep a dream journal and write down any fragments of dreams you can remember. If anything after awhile you will see what they mean to you and your life, being able to look back on things is great. Hit me up if you got any questions heh, I know this wasnt helpful but, its something.
 
So im a pretty firm believer that dreams hold something greater than just being random things. They can tell the future, help you solve problems, or show you things that maybe you haven't realized. One thing that was a great future telling dream was about 2 years ago. This was my senior year, and the resourse officer took two precious pipes of mine, one tobacco, and one that was a very unique tiki looking piece. At first i thought about these alot, as they meant alot to me. It hurt to think somebody trashed them. One day when i got in trouble months later, he showed me that he still had them (sad sight). He instructed me to put them behind his filing cabinet close to the door. So, months later near the end of school, i really starting thinking about these, how i really wanted them back as they gave me great memories. I would always see these opportunities to get them, but i was always too pussy to go and get them (they were both in a crown royal bag). his door was always open, too. So then one night, i had a very visual dream that the perfect moment came, right as school ended i went and got them from him (in the dream i went in his desk and took them right as he left, but same concept). I realized this told me i should grow balls and get them when the opportunity arose. So, one day after school just ended, i went to his office, and saw nobody in the office. There were multible offices here, and nobody was in one. So i went and got them back. I felt the dream to be a sign to tell me to really just get them. anyone have imput on this topic? (sorry this story was too long, favorite one for me)
 
I love hearing about dreams and how people interpret them, but the thing I'm not getting about your story is that I don't quite understand why this guy showed you he still had them and then, for some reason, had you put them in a new hiding spot which conveniently set up a situation for you to get them back. What is the point of that? If he doesn't want you to have them then he should get rid of them and that's that or if he wants to be cool and give them back then he should just do it or explain what you have to do to get them back.

Maybe there's something I'm not getting, but either way it's cool that you were able to get reacquainted with a possession that clearly means a lot to you.
 
I firmly believe that sleep, and dreams have a purpose. I've for instance sucked at a game at first, unable to beat a boss let's say, and then after a nights rest I come back, and play much easier, and beat whatever was holding me back. Our brains continue to work in our sleep.

I have also had dreams that seemed to mirror things that would happen later on (just like life sometimes does), precisely enough that it really does not seem "random". Some attribute my findings/experiences with this to selection bias, but I know that thats not the case.

I firmly believe that dreams have zero meaning.

They are a subjective experiencing of a filing process of working memory into long term memory centers in the brain.

This negates objects having certain meaning too. It means you would have to have experienced something in waking consciousness you did not create for it to appear in the dream experience. This follows modus ponens logic.

Its much more likely that special meanings, synchronicites, or things like that are rather noticing and observing some other schedule or habit or routine in your environment that tends to repeat. Then in the dream experience, it comes out in this fashion.

What i find more interesting than unexpected things in the dreams tho, is when a dream is more lucid or realistic then waking consciousness..

I've had a handful of occasions like this and they truly are strange. I always wake up from dreams like that a little shaken up and it stays in my head throughout the next few hours.
 
ive seen the future 2-3 times in dreams, they did manifest. I wrote about the dreams in my journal. One dream involved the death of my girlfriend and a date associated with the death, but i never took it seriously until after
 
^Was it something you could have prevented based on the information?

I apologize if the subject is a sensitive one.

yeah i never understood this, but he might have just wanted me to get them back in a way, but couldn't legally do it?
 
I think of my dreams as one part daily/recent past trash purge and one part google earth view of my emotional life at the moment. When I abstract the dreams to only the emotions and I see myself as every character in my dream (pursuer/pursued for instance) it gives me a way to examine what I might be feeling afraid of/running from (the pursued) and what I may be trying to force myself to deal with (the pursuer).
 
Sometimes my dreams are just randomized details of life, sometimes they're something subconscious trying to be worked out, and sometimes they are precognitive / extra-sensory. If it's the latter, usually the colours and details of the dream are extremely vivid, and there is real world relevance that I couldn't have known about in advance. I know OBEs are much more common if one goes to bed after 4am. In my case, it's the pre-cog dreams that happen a lot more intensely after 4am.

Most recently... I had a dream I was at a dance club and felt called to exit and go into the alley. When I did, my ex (who moved away and I haven't spoken to in 3 years) was sitting the alley on a bench crying. Beside him was a closed door that had light coming out of the seams. I sat with him and we had a really long conversation but I don't remember the details, but the end of the convo went something like me telling him, "There's a door of golden opportunity right beside you, if only you'd look for it."

When I woke up I told him the dream by face book and he just said "That's interesting". Two days later he called me at 3am from across the country, balling his eyes out. And this is a super rational, scientific, never-show-emotion kind of intellectual guy. His life was falling apart in a very specific way and part of the reason why he was upset was because I seemed to know and it defied his logic, but he knew that he was supposed to talk to me. So we hashed it out and he felt better. Now he's doing really well and making a shitload of money... if only I could give myself the same advice. lol
 
I say, STAY AWAKE!

Don't "sleep"...like those walking deadmen.

Keep your mind AWAKE YOU FOOLS!

Hurry, for I am coming quickly...those of you who are still "asleep" will be left behind... you will not inherit eternal life.

This cycle is coming to it's end... Only "true consciousness" will sustain....The rest....Will be weeded out and cast into the fire.

Unconscious memories are just as useless as the sleeping man. What can the sleeping man achieve? Nothing!

If you're not "conscious"(key word here) for these.. how you say "dreams" then, the they are as useful to you as the sleeping man.

Just a collection of unconscious memories... reminds me of death.
 
Dreaming, astral experiences.. these have defined who I am just as much as the waking world. Having astral experiences as a child and never forgetting them has shaped me greatly. It has always left the door open for me in terms of the mystery, that there is something more going on than what our current paradigm tells us. I think most dreams are processing of experience, drawing on memories to construct a narrative, and trying to solve anxieties and fears. But there is a window/connection to a greater mind than our own for sure.

The most significant pre-cog dreams I had were just prior to the Fukushima earthquake/meltdowns.

2 days prior I had an extremely vivid dream, and it had a quality/feeling to it that was different from other vivid dreams. I knew it was significant from that feeling alone. The dream was me watching an island being destroyed by weather phenomena, and I was standing on the shoreline as people were in a state of panic. Then all of a sudden I became more lucid in the dream, entered this sphere of colour/information reminiscent of DMT and astral experiences, and I heard a voice clearly state "This is the end of your evolution". That is the only time I've had a voice speak to me in a dream.

The night of the earthquake, maybe as it was happening, I had a vivid dream that lasted mere seconds. It was just me holding a samurai sword against an opponent. No motion, words, or anything. Again another dream with a feeling unlike ordinary dreams.

Yes, in fact I told her I had a dream and that in it she had blue lips and was dead, but what i couldn't explain was the urgency attached to a certain date- from the dream. It just bombadred me with a date over and over again, in different forms (language forms) and the image of her with blue lips -
 
What I think is more profound then certain symbols and stuff like that is dream locations.

I don't really know how to describe this, but it fits with what people are saying.

Something in my life triggers patterns of the settings. Not the deja vu-esque experiences. But actually repeating locations.

I always smoked pot for years and took benzos, and when I quit was right when I started using DMT, and melatonin and 5-htp and all that.It was like I never dreamed before.

I think it was the benzo induced lack of REM, but it was incredibly fragmented. Lots or vivid dreams that Id wake up more elucidated.

There was a whole lot of people I treated as close friends who were acquaintces after lucid experiences. Had a lot of those existential am I dreaming solopism freakouts out of nowhere .

Trippy shit
 
I'm not really sure about dreams having a real meaning, but they definitely tell you things. That's because they are a reflection of your emotions, your actions, your life. During the whole 9th grade and the whole summer, and most of 10th grade. I had horrible, extremely vivid epic dreams about the other students refusing to accept me. When I spoke I was laughed at. I was attacked and had some dreams where I had no choice but to kill my fellow students.
In these dreams it was common for me to act very violently and brutal towards these fellow students. These dreams were like a personal hell. I ran. I cried. I fought, I destroyed, I killed, I was refused. This is because in my school years from 6th grade and up, I was treated horribly by my classmates. I still don't know why. I would like to give examples of these dreams but I don't know where to start. I think my dreams might be a little more "mental" and diverse than most others.
A lot of my dreams usually have me waking up with a very strange but powerful feeling. I've actually made some life changes and realizations through these dreams. The dreams never take place in a normal environment. Every school in each dream was different but with the same students most of the time. One school was on a purple-reddish planet with strange gases that made up the atmosphere. The school looked like an old native American structure but with high technology. Jungles were in the hallways and alien looking students, along with the normal ones harassed me. There's many more interesting environments, but too many to explain.
Besides those dreams, the weirdest one I had was a dream where I met and spoke with Jim Morrison.(I idolize this guy) Before I did, I was performing on stage with the most unique rock sound I have ever heard in my entire life. A sound I've made in real life but have not found a way to organize yet. My dreams usually have the most amazing rock music I've ever heard. When I wake up, I realize that music is created by my brain in my sleep.
Keith Richards made the guitar tune to "satisfaction", after hearing it in a dream. He just so happened to wake up in time to record it. Anyways, in this particular dream, I spoke with Morrison for quite a while. He had a whiskey bottle in hand and interrupted me a lot. He was kinda rude. We talked about crazy shit. Real crazy shit I can't remember, except for something he said about capitalism being corrupted. Very corrupted. He was talking about capitalism taking American over or something like that. I will tell you, I don't know much about capitalism. But there is definitely a corruption behind it. There's more dreams than that. Too many to tell.
 
last night i had a dream where i was competing in a triathlon against a guy from school i knew (not really a fit guy lol), anyway i beat him in the race (cant remember there being a swimming component), although i didn't come first, a few people were ahead i think. i read on a dream interpretation site that winning a race is a sign of positive changes occurring in someones life, improving i guess. anyway i have been excelling in most areas of my life in the past week or so, so i agree with the interpretation i think, it makes sense to me.
same night i had a snippet where i helped a girl shut down her computer, i think thats my subconscious showing that its comfortable to talk to girls now.

a couple nights ago i dreamt i was in a yoga class and a cute girl called sarah, i think, asked me out to have breakfast with her in a funny/seductious way. i think thats saying that im either noticing girls that are interested in me / premonition of future

could be reading into it for sure, but ultimately i want to practice dream meditation, focus attention on the texture of the grass, smells, sounds, sight, touch. Do nothing basically, apparently meditating trips you out into psychedelic patterns or something hah. But I think you can practice skills in dreams, e.g. practice math, practice piano, practice a sport, practice dancing etc
so it makes sense you can practice mindfulness in your dream world

im a while away from being lucid in dreams though, just going to find some key dream signs, stay vigilant with dream-journal and work on reality checking
