I think it all boils down to belief. That said, I am not particularly fond of people who insult or try to make nonsense of other people's beliefs. Express your opinions by all all means but please be civil. I started this thread because I am a full fledged example of the importance of dreams, and I am neither superstitious nor irrational. So for now my standpoint is this. It is better to err on the side of caution than be sorry later. So whenever I have a dream, I pray. Over 70% of the milestones in my life were preceded by dreams. I could go on and on, but I see some people are finding this creepy so I'll skip the stories. I am still interested in the dream symbol thing though. @thegoodjoehunt: I am terribly sorry about your loss. The pain gets better with time. Be strong. @omoalata: i do not find your mother's story strange in any way. I know a few women like that. On a lighter note, we made it to front page, yay! 2 Likes |

Ikengawo: The Science of the Dream I JUST LIKE THE FACT THAT YOU SAW AND PRACTICE IT; YOU GOT THE ANSWER. WE AFRICAN FIND IT SOO HAD TO RESEARCH ON OUR OWN. WE LOVE TO PRACTICE WHAT PEOPLE SAY. IF YOU ALWAYS THINK ABOUT WITCHES, YOU MUST SURELY SEE THEM IN YOUR DREAMS. ONLY 1% OF EVERY DREAM IS TRUE. |

once opened a thread about it in 2010.. Stil dont understand i til now https://www.nairaland.com/524481/dreams-effect-reality am nt religious bt i seem 2 av control ova my dreams. Whether they happen or not, An inner conviction. Though i use 2 pray bak then wen i was religious. My dreams always happen d way i see em bt it cud take years 2 happen wen i av totaly 4goten bout it, only d sense of "De javu" me. I sumtyms change d pattern if its was a bad dream or go wit d flow if its a gud 1. Sum takes weeks 2 happen, days or hours sumtyms. Even if i 4get my dream wen i wake up, there is always a Reminder like: i see d person, an object, a fone cal, anytin dat wil jolt my memory. I av searched online tire bt evrybdy kips givin difrent xplanatn. Am just glad m nt d only 1, use 2 tink m superwiered. I dream evryday & it happens no matter how insignificant or ridiculous. I record them down & tick them wen it happens. |

Dream tells the future, but it depend on the dreamer, If you don't believe in dream, God will not speak to you through dream. Psychologicaly, human most be having dream once in a while, to make your body, spirit and mind ballance. It also serve as a guide or manual to human, but it will come in puzle for your to solve. Spiritualy, God also communicate the future to us. But there are some dream that u don't have to believe, because they are trick from the devil to bring problems into once life. If you seriousely think of a woman that you love to make sex with, definetly your mind will seek for ballance, by having sex in the dream. |

Dream is God's way of telling what lies ahead without showing us the process. HE wants us to figure that part out, as we brace ourselves for what is to come. |

chivaley: Hi folks. How significant do you think dreams are? Can they tell the future? Are they meant to help us ward off impending doom? Does God warn us through our dreams? Real experiences are welcome as well. I am sure you know that it does. |

Omo Alata:Pls dont be offended but i think ur mum needs to see a psychiatric. Whatever b d case, u should treat ur mum with love and care.U should be understanding and patient with her,no matter what she does or says. If u are Muslim, d Quran makes it an obligation on us to treat our parents with kindness throughout their lives - in fact, never to be angry with them or disobey them(so long they do not demand disobedience to God). U should remember that d holy prophet Muhammad says paradise lies under the feet of the mother. So, mothers are given a special position in Islam. |

I am always in control of my dreams, I decide what happens and when to wake up when things get scary. I discovered that I run faster in my dream when I am not covering myself with a covercloth. I can pause my dream, wake up to check the time and resume dreaming from where I stopped. I also get a lot of problems solved by leaving my subsconscious mind to work on it while I am asleep, but that doesn't rule out the fact that some people see the future in their dreams. I don't. |

chivaley: Thanks for all the replies so far. I started this thread because I have also had dreams that came true or bad ones I had to pray really hard to avert. But one further question house: What are dream symbols? I've heard a lot about them. If you guys will be kind enough to list some you are aware of, it would be nice. For instance I heard worms and maggots depict illness, rats depict poverty and oil depicts annointing. Any insights on dream symbols? i once dreamt of being anoited with some other people.i also once dreamt of vomiting tiny maggots,but i didn't know what it meant till now.thank God i was vomiting it |

@all4naija that which is spiritual is spiritual that which is physical is physical,so your unbelief cannot and wouldnt annull the existence of the spiritual. @topic. not only the future it also reveals the present.(but not all dreams)personal experience? yes just too many to type. |

at omolata my prayers are with you. will recommend a book for you titled ---prayer rain-------- obtainable at mountain of fire churches---- and get close to your mum physically but pray a discord in the spiritual re ml, with your mum. this is to nullify permanently the ties she has with you, this prayer has to be worded carefully to be effective.or you will forever fight big and small battles for the rest part of your life and that of your kids that would not know of any problems------the bible says pray that the sins of your parent are not upon you. thus fight for your kids---now. its a common fact that women have close ties with their kids, thus the mother Mary stuff in some churches. |

Believe it or not, dreams are real. I have been battling with attack through bad dreams now for 2 years. The 1st dream I had lead to me losing my job where I saw myself at a traffic light on a bike and the traffic police stopped me in the midst of others and lo and behold 2 weeks later I lost my job. Though I got another job later but since then I have done more than eleven interviews in different companies and each time i will have a dream either before or after the interview and receive messages therafter that the interview is not successful. I am a christian, I have fasted, I have prayed and still beliving God for a solution as I have lost a lot of fantastic opportunities to this attack. House, I need further help! |
