Dreams

I've been having these awful delirious half-awake dreams where I'm stuck with a weird nightmare math or science problem that keeps repeating over and over. I literally have to bite my wrist to snap out of them. It's maddening.

Reminds me a bit of those cases where people allegedly speak perfect French (or whatever) in their sleep despite not having had any prior exposure to the language. Humans are creepy!

I wonder about that too. Like when we dream can we access stuff we will know in the future, or have access to a collective memory - Rupert Sheldrake stuff.

I had this reoccurring dream when I was a kid, and it went like this: I would be outside in an empty lot filled with short cut grass in some neighborhood somewhere in a city. I would look up into the sky to see a giant planet, it wasn't like any planet I knew. It wasn't Jupiter or Saturn, just a huge blue planet in the sky. In the dream everyone stopped what they were doing at the time and came outside to see it. I remember them coming out of their houses and their cars. They gathered in this grassy lot in a crowd to look up at the sky. In the dream the planet's gravity was strong enough it could lift people off the ground and I would see them float into the air till they disappeared. The thing I remember most was I felt like I could fly in the dream. I could fell gravity pulling me up. I would stop dreaming when I got about five or ten feet off the ground. I thought maybe the feeling of flying could be a inner ear thing, so maybe that could be explained. The strange thing is (because I found this out years after I had the dream) there are actually people who believe in a planet that will pass near the Earth, some people call it "Planet X" and others call it "Nibiru." I always wonder about that. It's not only a dream I had, but it's actually part of the stuff the paranormal community believes in. I find that part fascinating.

Walking through grey and dingy restrooms and being unprepared for school are both reoccurring dreams I have.

Yes, the morphic field and all-- it doesn't seem entirely far-fetched-- the concept of DNA/ancestral memory, and the existence of a collective unconscious that undulates beneath our world and bleeds into our dreams (in odd, nonsensical ways) and so on.

Interesting... Do you (or anyone else reading this, really) have any other recurring dreams? I feel some of those are bound to be psychologically significant in some way or another.
Planet X! :0 The Nibiru craze was huge in the UFO/conspiracy communities ten years ago-- some still seem to be clinging onto it. (I always wonder how they'd interpret Lars von Trier's Melancholia)

Fell asleep at a friend's and dreamt I was Donald Trump's aide.
Don't remember any details, but apparently I was laughing in my sleep.

I had one of those dreams where I was yelling at my gf and so pissed off that I was punching the wall while yelling at her and when I woke up. I was side eyeing her so hard. It crossed over and I was mad at her for whatever she did in my dream to piss me off that badly. I told her about my dream so it's not as bad as when she does the same thing but she like punches me for some crap that I did in her dream that I had no control over.
