Thread: Hi, I'm new

hello all

I've been meditating for a year now and as a result it has sparked off some lucid dreams.

I've always had very odd dreams and always been able to remember them and am looking forward to trying the techniques posted.

I have one question however, what is the significance of hearing music in a dream, (there was no television or radio on when i heard it)

It is completely normal to hear music in your dreams.

yeah but what is it? Why does the brain feel the need to throw in music that I;ve never heard?

thanks for the quick reply btw

Well, when we dream our brain is sending out random electrical patterns all over. In dreams we try to make sense of the information, and in your case it comes out as music. I have listened to music in dreams and wrote it down when I woke up. Its pretty cool stuff.

Music is a positive thing to experience in dreams. It means you have a special connection with the world and people around you.

Hello & welcome to the Forum!!
Hearing music in a dream is quite common, actually, b/c you can never stop thinking of your favorite tune, right? Well, that will carry on into a LD/NLD

That is an excellent way of putting that!
And welcome to the forum to you as well!

Music... hmm. Well, what does music mean to you in waking life? Often times, those randomly firing neurons will trigger connections that are most often used; so maybe if you connect music with, say, friends, or religion, or whatever, then that's what it's associated with. For me, music is associated with religion, leisure, and mathematics; so that'd be the significance of music in my dreams. Anyway, you're lucky; my dreams are so predominantly visual that I have to focus to experience any other sensory input. I've only heard music a couple of times.

well What i heard in my dream was definetly associated with religion, I heard what was like the islamic call to pray they sing from the mosc's (I'm not a muslim btw) But i do have a strong connection to music in my everyday life.

thanks for the reply m8
