Dreams are mainly the orchestra of one's internal stimuli and subconscious. So if you are in tune with your dreaming you can open pathways to understanding your subconscious or baser self better. |

I have three questions. They all basically continue eachother. |

I have without attempting to, had dreams about the future, that did come true. On one instance it was as simple as going to a wal-mart when I was out of town to get a toothbrush. Another time I was in jail, and my best friend found out I had slept with his girlfriend. |
|
Dreaming about an event and then having it happen later at some point is not the same thing as seeing the future with dreams. |
|
But it is the same thing as seeing a possible future |
|
I'm going to have to ask... Think, did you write down those dreams that happened later or in any way record them? So that you could, after the event took place, look back at your journal and see that you indeed had dreamt that? |

I read of a method to use dreams to catch glimpses of the future. I can't remember the name for it right now though. It basically was like dream incubation, suggesting to yourself that you will have a dream of some future event ... and just like that you have a prophetic dream. |
|
One acting as a 'soothsayer' cannot be involved in the proposed future. Why? Simply because by proposing a potential future you may programme your subconsious to direct you toward that future. As this happens subconsciously, unaware to your conscious, you may then feel surprised when that future turns into the present. |

I will answer with yes, on both reported occasions I did actually write them down. |

Once I had a dream where this polish boy was walking with me in the uniform that my school has, he told me his cousin could solve a rubik's cube in under 20 seconds. A few months later a polish boy (different from DC) came to my school and eventually we got talking and he told me his cousin was the fastest speedcuber in Poland. |
|
I'd like to add an update to my dream I thought was not going to come true. |
|
There is actually a lot of literature out there that identifies the possibility of seeing the future in dreams. Problem is it hasn't been tested, at least not with reproducible results. At a time I might say it is unlikely to have any experience of precognition, no matter how minimal. I have had a strange experience that challenges that though. |
|
I dreamt I made a phone call, and predicted someone would answer or not answer. OMG how do I do it? |
|
Ok, what about one of us trying it. Like in the LD look into or ask about the future of the next day or two and see what happens |

a lot of people have had experiences where they have dreamt of something before it happened. I think that everyone might have this happen to them whether they remember the dream or not. But as for purposefully trying to see your future, i'm not sure how you would go about doing that in the first place. |
|
Begin to use it. You dreamt that you got arrested, knowing that sometimes they come true, and then it came true? |
|
How many countless number of dreams have you had whether remembered or not where nothing did come true of them? And saying something will happen in the future gives you an infinite amount of time for it or something like it to happen. |
|
I'd like to preface this post by saying that coming from a heavy science background, I'm inclined to not believe in the paranormal or the supernatural. However, certain experiences I'd had through lucid dreaming have given me cause for doubt: |
|
Alextanium, in my opinion, you're on the right track with your explanation. |
|
When you place importance on your dreams, especially when you think they are an indicator of future events, you are subconsciously elevating the importance of the things in them so that you notice them everywhere. This is related to the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon. You may have experienced this when you learned a new word and then suddenly noticed it everywhere. |
|
I see Scroll-x has things well in hand here. |
|
The dreams that I have wrote down I believed to be the future, where nothing I would plan. Going to wal-mart to get a toothbrush is rediculious, and it was all the same as what I wrote down months before. The timing and meaning are completely crazy. |
