Hello all
I have a question which i have been after an answer for for many years, and wondered if anyone could shed any light.
I have always dreamed every night since a child, and still dream every night.
What i am finding is that on an almost daily basis, sometimes more than once a day that i get a "flashback" of a dream or dreams i have had weeks, months or more often years ago. For a few moments I am right back there in the dream, the atmosphere, a segment of it is there just as i dreamt it. It can happen at any time of the day or night, im not thinking about my dreams, i could be doing the washing up or watching tv, reading etc....and in it pops into my head.....Sometimes when i try to think more about the dream as it has popped into my head, it goes, and i "loose" the atmosphere, aura etc, the image/flashback of my dream goes just as quickly as it came.
My dream "flashbacks" are not always dreams that i have remembered consioucly when I have woken... the flashbacks can be dreams that i have forgotten about until the moment that they "flashback" into my mind so to speak. Then I think "Ah I remember that dream now", then it goes again.
I hope you don't all think im a bit of a loony tune for asking this, but my instinct tells me it must mean something. I have a dream dictionary which i thumb through from time to time, and i now have the animal dream meanings that Stormdeva so kindly posted about the other day, but these dream "flashbacks" i would love to know more about them and what they could possibly mean.
Thanks for taking the time to read this

RE: Dream flashbacks
Hi lightwinds,
Thank you so much for your reply. The main themes of the flashbacks vary, and the flashbacks are usually a "segment" of a complete dream i have had. However in answer to your question, when they occur, they generally "feel" good, or comforting, pleasing, kind of like a "oh i remember that now!!" kind of emotion, they can also be strange and puzzling, but not in an unpleasant kind of way. They can be flashbacks from "abstract" or "bizzare" dreams, dreams that have been disjointed and dreams that are not.....they can also be of dreams that have made no sense to me, and have had all kinds of odd and jumbled bits and people in, but not unpleasant or horrible things happening. I am not ever upset or troubled by the flashbacks, even if they are a bit puzzling, i never seem to have flashbacks of nightmares i have had, the flashbacks are only of nice, wierd, abstract, odd and puzzling dreams, even if i have forgotten the dream till i get the flashback!!. I always usually dream in colour too, sometimes vividly.
I hope I am making sense here, lightwinds!!:eek:
love

RE: Dream flashbacks
Hi Moo moo
I know exactly what you mean, I often have flashback and not sure if I have dreamed them last night or years ago - I don't know what it means tho. The other thing that happens is that I recurrent dream but it actually picks up where I left off before! and it could be that the last time I consciously remember these dreams are years ago!
I can remember really vivid dreams which can date back to childhood. It is strange and I would love to know why it happens. I also dream in colour, but have heard only a very small amount of people can dream in colour - but not sure if that is true or not.
With love
Maria
RE: Dream flashbacks
Hi Moo Moo, Maria.........I think with certain people they have chosen to be of servise in some way......Healing in many fields and meeting many people in their chosen path. Maybe we have the flashback dream to help us understand situation that arise in our lives which involes others and colour dreams can play a great part and help you to work on areas of ourselves and others. Seeing colourfull dreams is to me also a sign you have a good spiritual ability to share with others. And as i said if flasbacks keep reacuring then their some issue to deal with that we have not faced maybe....good or bad. I feel dreams are a help in healing are inner spirit and provied guidence how we deal with the subjects at the time of the dream. Our own heath issue as
well.....partnership......family......childhood....going back into dream were we left off can sugest we are looking for a anwer to something again good or bad. Dream are all part of are joruney in life. It's good to have help in understanding dreams but we are still in controll of the out come. If you keep going to a dream were you maybe was about 5 years old and it was a happy time....you are beings told to bring that happyness into your life now. If it was a bad time and you feel you have issue with your parents then it would say it time to heal and let go.....dont carry it through your lifes joruney for your own children would suffer.....or if you have not found love since that time........let love come into your life. To many some dream are hard to recall........some say they dont dream.
But many words that come from a person mouth........is this saying........oh i dream of winning lottory, I dream of finding a soul mate, i dream of etc... So weather we remember dreams or not we still dream in day time as well but wide awake.
And also nightmares....tranma in are life.......and again to much horror films tv. Astral travel getting away from our bodys to feel free from the pains of the earth.
Their is still alot that we dont understand about dreams.....but i think we can only but try to keep working on them.
Some i also feel can come from past lives. Just let me know if i left an issue out and i love sharing your veiws.
Hope you can make sence in what im trying to say.
love and blessings
