Thread: No sense of time

I only have a "general" sense of time in my dreams. I'll be so busy dreaming that I don't really think about it.

Do you believe there is a sense of time in dreams?

Yes, I have had long dreams where a had a very good sense of how long ago things happened.

Also do you believe there is a connection between the spirit realms/astral plane or whatever you want to call it and dreams because there is supposed to be no sense of time there so it would make make perfect sense why there would be no sense of time in your dreams, because when you dream you are there?

No, I don't believe that at all.

I don't have any spirit realms/astral plane, maybe you do.

I don't know because i have had lucids which have felt at least a few hours, yet i wake up and only a short amount of time has passed.

Hmmn yes, I have found that quite interesting in lucids. I have had a couple which took place across days.

The time thing, it's similar to Deja vu. You would bet that it had happened before but it's only your brain playing tricks on you.

Ya, its all an illusion.

When I'm going to sleep I have no sense of time at all. If I look at the clock and blink, 30 minutes to 5 hours could have past, with no change in consciousness. As for dreaming, my dreams usually keep a timescale. It's just how I remember them effects how fast it went. If there's less detail, it seems to go faster. Otherwise, slower.
