      Talking Dream signs missed by different cultures

      Most common dream signs seem to work no matter who you are, as long as you're paying attention. But have you ever wondered...
      • Do the Amish ever dream that lightswitches don't work? Or that car brakes are faulty?
      • Would a hockey player who dreamed about his teeth falling out think it was unusual?
      • Does an illiterate find dream writing more difficult to read than real writing?
      • Would a nudist recognize the "going-to-school-naked" sign?

      Skysaw, you're quite clever. That gave me some laughs. You know, I think it's true though. There are probably so many varying dreamsigns that you may or many not realize depending on your upbringing. (I like the amish one)

      This has real applications. Churches are one of my dreamsigns, because I've been brought up in a very pagan environment and never went to church. For most believers, I assume churches are common like school or workplaces, or the mall.

      I'm a believer.. and I can't say that I remember any dreams with churches in them. God, yes. But no churches.

      Hi, a very good point. U don't recognize the normal thing in dreams unless U connect lucid dreaming with it.

      I'm a believer too, and I've had several dreams about being at a church event. Not an actual worship service, but like pot lucks and stuff. Sadly, I didn't recognize it as a dreamsign.
      In dreams of unspeakable joy—of restored friendships; of revived embraces; of love which said it had never died; of faces that had vanished long ago, yet said with smiling lips that they knew nothing of the grave; of pardons implored, and granted with such bursting floods of love, that I was almost glad I had sinned—thus I passed through this wondrous twilight. —George MacDonald

      I thought making a call in a dream wasn't possible and I just did it recently so NO. There are no common or general dream signs applicable on everyone.

      Yeehaa!

      Erm, you got me there. But it does not apply to the sort of dreams where you lack dream control.
