Dreams

Dreams are among the myriad mysteries of Nature which still stay unravelled and hidden from the light of discovery and openness. Dreams have no definition to characterize them, nor do they have any definite identity. They are always there in all our lives, but they are still like a stranger, unknown and questioned! Some attribute dreams as a channel which let away all such elements of the mind which lay trap in darkness, while we are conscious. They may be regarded as a show case of the semi conscious state of the mind, which gets lightened while the body sleeps. On the other hand, for some, dreams serve as mere recaps for all that we touch, see, feel, hear, think and all that goes on while we are awake. Some dreams are funny and some scary. Some make sense while some seem to be completely lost in the ocean of confusion. The concept of dreams is something like a shadow behind a screen. We can identify the shape and the movements, but we remain helpless in getting close to its real identity.

    

Lucid or Understandable Dreams

As the name itself suggests, these dreams are able to present an almost clear picture of themselves to the dreamer. Lucid dreams lie under the realization of a person and so he is aware that he is dreaming. Lucid dreams are controllable by the dreamer and the incidents which might take place is such dreams are somewhat manoeuvrable. For instance, if you are dreaming about crossing a river, then you might decide to get a boat to do so, rather than crossing the river unintentionally.

Telepathic Dreams

Telepathy is defined as an apparent communication from one mind to another without using sensory perceptions and this is what forms the basis of telepathic dreams. In these dreams, there is an involvement of a misty and an unspoken language. This language acts as an abstract carrier of messages, from one's thoughts to another's in dreams. These dreams serve as hidden channels of communication between individuals who are close to each others; such as in the case of soul mate. There have been cases where some people have dreamed about something which is similar to one of the person next to them in bed. There also have been incidents wherein, a person has shared a similar dream with another who is miles away.

Predictive Dreams

Predictive dreams are the ones about which experts have their say as to be cautious about or pay heed to. They may be indicative of something which might be dragging your mind to somewhat in the future. Scientists attribute such dreams as a mere subject of coincidence. For example, on the night before a long journey, you dream about your accident. Now, it would be unwise or may be irrational if you cancel the trip, merely blaming the dream. It might be your fear of travelling which have led to dream and unconsciously imagine the accident. Likewise, for instance you dream that the car in which you are going to travel is red and has the name of the driver written on it. The next day, you are about to be picked by the same red car bearing the driver's name. Now, you might have some good reasons to be worried about. But again, according to statistics, such incidents are a mere play of coincidence. However, dreaming about something which you have never seen before is also a subject to be concerned about. That is the reason why, predictive dreams should not be taken for granted, but at the same time, should be persuasive enough if they have to be considered seriously.
