Can't Find Your Dream Signs? Read This!

**paigeyemps** · 08-21-2012 10:10 AM

I have noticed that many people lately are having trouble finding/identifying their dream signs, so I decided to make a quick guide

First of all, if you want to identify your dream signs, it would only make sense to write down every little detail of any dreams you can recall. This is crucial because dream signs come in many shapes and forms, and if you don't write down even the slightest details, you can overlook a possible dream sign.

Here are some types of dream signs:

1. Places - Where do your dreams usually occur? It can be in your old school, your house, the beach, or even somewhere you don't recognize*, such as alien planets.

2. Objects - What things usually pop up in your dreams? It can be a broom, slipper, computer, or even a weird object you don't recognize.*

3. People - Who are your usual dream characters? It can be your friend, your neighbor, a celebrity, or even your awful chem teacher who spits a lot in class.*

4. Animals - Do critters show up in your dreams? It can be a dog, snake, ants, or flies, etc. It can also be otherworldly creatures such as monsters, spirits, entities, etc.

5. Events/Actions - Do you run a lot in dreams? Fall from high places, do sports, do homework, type on a computer? Do weddings happen a lot in your dreams? Or gore and death scenes? Does your TV suddenly turn off, or the lights always flicker?

6. Time - Do your dreams often happen during daytime, nighttime, twilight, or at a certain time? Does it alway seem like you're in your childhood, or in a certain era?

7. Emotions - Is there a certain emotion that prevails when you dream? It can be unexplained rage, passion, depression, fear, etc.

8. Bodily Sensations - Do you often feel your dream body warming up? Or getting goosebumps, shivers, pain, or as if something is weighing you down, etc.?

9. Sounds - What do you usually hear in dreams? Do you notice background music, nature sounds, static noise, people murmuring, etc.?

10. Thoughts - Sometimes certain thoughts repeatedly pop up in our heads while dreaming. They can be totally random such as "the toaster is nice", or something like "I need more milk", etc.

11. Odors - Do you detect any consistent odors in you dreams? They can be pungent, flowery, fruity, pleasant or unpleasant, even body odors (eeek!).

12. Colors and Visual Quality- Do you notice any dominant colors in your dreams? Some may mostly see hues of red, or blue, as if the color settings of the dream have been adjusted. Haziness and blurriness may also count. (Some people even report having dreams that seem to be vibrating all throughout.) Physical alterations count too, such as always having an extra finger, or diffent color eyes than normal.

*When recalling dreams with places/things/people you don't recognize, it is helpful to include drawings or sketches of what they look like, for future comparisons (or for simple unleashing of artistic skills haha)

NOTE: Dream signs are not completely necessary for attaining lucidity. There are many ways to achieve lucidity, and dream signs are merely one of them.

So there you have it! I'm sure there are still other types of dream signs out there, these are the ones I can think of at the moment. I hope this helps! Have fun figuring out what your dream signs are!

Yes! Write it all down! You'll be amazed. And *use the online dream journal on this website as well.*

I've had things as interesting as emotions, time periods of my life, and current news events be dream signs. You just need to pay attention to what YOU dream about and the world around YOU.

Mine tend to be certain people or places, specifically the location or room where the dream takes place.
Great guide BTW!

Thank you so much Paigeyemps this helped me realise that I'm usually with my friends when I'm dreaming so I just have to RC everytime I'm with my friends, pretty easy since lately they have started talking about lucid dreaming.
