Dreams are often not what they seem. Our subconscious mind, a master of revealing the concealed, brings our innermost thoughts to light, enlightening us about our psyche. Frequently overlooked, dreams serve as a form of intuition that guides us. Interestingly, only about 20 percent of the population dreams in color, and these colorful dreams tend to be much more precognitive. For the majority, black-and-white dreams reflect their everyday experiences.
Imagine a dream as a movie playing in a theater. You find yourself in the audience, but unlike a typical movie experience, you are strapped to your seat with your eyes forced open. You can neither leave nor look away.
As you watch this dream sequence unfold, the main characters are at the forefront while “extras” perform actions in the background. People generally focus on what the main characters are doing, but the real action often lies in the scenes behind them. While blurred, the “extras” or background activities carry significant meaning. These scenes can be precognitive, potentially offering forewarnings about events to come. Their purpose is to address the “pink elephants in the room,” serving as symbols of our wishes and fears. Notably, the background scenes are usually depicted in softer and blurred forms.
Another vital point is that some individuals rarely dream but often experience déjà vu. These moments are typically memories of their dreams, even if they do not recognize them.
It’s essential to pay attention to your dreams! I suggest recording them using voice notes on your phone or keeping a journal. We tend to remember our dreams only a few minutes after waking up; if we don’t keep a record, they’re easily forgotten. The more you track and pay attention to your dreams, the more you will have. This practice will also help you decipher their meanings. Remember, we all possess intuition, and it’s essential not to take our dreams literally.
