Daily Sleep and Dream Cycle  Circadian Rhythm: The Circadian Rhythm is a 24 hour cycle that the human body goes through each day. Within this day and night cycle there is a 6 to 10 hour period in which we sleep. This sleep period includes both deep sleep, and REM sleep.

REM Sleep and Dreams: All mammals dream. The most vivid and memorable dreams take place in REM (Rapid Eye Movement) Sleep. The eye movements correspond with the dreamer looking around and seeing things in the dream. The rest of the body is paralyzed at the brain stem. The sleep and dream cycle varies between individuals, but the majority of health people show a consistent pattern illustrated by the graphs above.

Ultradian Rhythm: Every 90 to 110 minutes, the human body goes through an Ultradian Rhythm. This cycle is most apparent while we sleep because each cycle includes a period of deep sleep, and a period of REM sleep. At the end of each Ultradian Rhythm, there is a short period of wakefulness when the person can adjust their sleep position before falling back into sleep. Each subsequent ultradian rhythm requires less deep sleep, and so the REM period becomes longer.

Dream Recall: A person will experience a higher degree of dream recall when they are healthy, go to sleep at the same time each night, and wake up naturally after a full night of sleep. The person must also have an interest and curiosity for their dream experiences each morning upon awakening. It is recommended to write dream experiences in a dream journal to strengthen retention.

Classifying Dreams:
Although we have learned a lot about the mechanics of dreams this century--the pattern of dreaming during the night and its physiological components--we have made little progress in understanding the meaning of our dreams. As a science, even as an art, dream interpretation has remained on a plateau. I think this has occurred because we have not yet organized our knowledge about dreams for maximum use.
A dream system is helpful for research but leaves the individual dreamer with the question, "What does my dream mean?"
Popular books, in contrast, offer answers to that question, but without much scientific foundation or little agreement from book to book. The Universal Dreams concept may bridge research and popular needs. Classifying Dreams: 542 965 885 569 045 5874 8094 9466 4693

Beautiful Poem Eddessa, It clearly shows that dreams are not restricted and we can be anything and do anything we choose in the dream realm. And have everything as it was when we return back to reality. William Blake transforms from a man to a maiden queen, who cries all the time and seems to have a crust on his/her guardian angel and transforms into an old woman or man with grey hair. Numerous transformation. 422 829 493 437 1822 7147 9463 4980 54576 93785 79414 73753 Some Results: 422 829 493 437 1822 7147 9463 4980 | | |

The Dream Key
The word taxonomy refers to the science of classification. It derives from the Greek words "nomos" meaning "the law," and "taxis", meaning "arrangement." Taxonomy, the law of arrangement, provides a system for comprehending a great range of material, making it easier to retrieve information and simplify comparisons.
This is accomplished by reference to a "key" (the technical term) in which the general (genus) and the specific (species) aspects of a specimen are defined and described in detail.
Once we have such an instrument, dreamers can easily locate one or more of the universal dreams they are certain to experience. By comparing their individual dream to the variations of a worldwide dream theme, people will be able to grasp the most probable meaning of their dreams.
Yet, regardless of how much we share with other humans, we are unique beings. We have acquired "accents" in our culture, and subculture, so, we still need dreamworkers to adjust the fit of the probable dream meaning to each dreamer's exact size.

2.0 Injury or Death
Definition: You or another dream character (often a loved person) is injured, killed, or dies. Usually the cause is accidental. The villain or threat is not emphasized; injury or death just happens. This theme includes the common dream that your teeth are falling out.
Examples:
My mother dies. My child is accidentally struck by a car. I am hysterical. I shrink. Someone comes along and squashes me.
Injury:
To dream that you are injured suggests that you need to work on healing old wounds and hurts. You need to stop and slow down. reflect on where or how you were injured for further meaning. Death:
To dream about the death of a loved one suggests that you are lacking a certain aspect or quality that the loved one embodies. on the other hand, the dream indicates that whatever that person represents has no part in your own life anymore. In particular, to dream about the death of your parents indicates that you are undergoing a significant change in your waking life. Your relationship with your parents has evolved into a new realm. To dream of your own death indicates a transitional phase in your life. You are becoming more enlightened or spiritual. then again, you are trying desperately to escape the demands of your daily life. To dream that you are faking your own death suggests that you are looking for a new start. You need some change in your life.
Die:
To dream that you die in your dream symbolizes inner changes, transformation, self-discovery and positive development that is happening within you or your life. You are undergoing a transitional phase and are becoming more enlightened or spiritual. Although such a dream may bring about feelings of fear and anxiety, it is no cause for alarm as it is often considered a positive symbol. Dreams of experiencing your own death usually means that big changes are ahead for you. You are moving on to new beginnings and leaving the past behind. These changes does not necessarily imply a negative turn of events. Metaphorically, dying can be seen as an end or a termination to your old ways and habits. So, dying does not always mean a physical death, but an ending of something.

2.5 Healing or Rebirth The opposite to dreams of injury or death are those dreams in which we become healed or reborn. Healing:
To dream of healing represents your need for emotional and/or physical healing. You need to find the power to rectify and care for the issues in your life. Rebirth:
To dream that you are born again indicates that you need to deal with issues that you have been avoiding. You may have been given a second chance to regain what was previously thought to be lost. Alternatively, the dream means that you are starting or entering a new stage in your life. You are looking toward the future instead of dwelling on the past. Some Christians are described as "born again". Thus the dream may also represent your renewed religious faith and commitment.

3.0 Vehicle Trouble
Definition: You dream of being in or near a car or other vehicle that is out of control or has some other problem that hampers your mobility. The circumstances vary. You may find that you have no brakes, or that the steering wheel won't work, or that you are out of gas. You may be going off the road, off a cliff, going through a red light, or crashing into an object or person. You may be in the driver's seat, in the passenger's seat, or in the back seat. You may be at the control panel of an airplane, seeing that you are almost out of gas. Your vehicle may be a bicycle that gets a flat tire. You may or may not try to regain control of the vehicle.
Meaning: To dream of a car accident symbolizes your emotional state. You may be harboring deep anxieties and fears. Are you "driving" yourself too hard? This dream may tell you to slow down before you hit disaster. You need to rethink or re-plan your course of actions and set yourself on a better path. To dream that you have been rear ended indicates that something from your past is still impacting your present situation. You need to learn from the past in order to move forward. To dream that your car has been stolen indicates that you are being stripped of your identity. This may relate to losing your job, a failed relationship, or some situation which has played a significant role in your identity and who you are as a person. If you dream that your car is overheating, then it suggests that you are expending too much energy. You need to slow down or run the risk of being burnt out. You are taking on more than you can handle. It is time to take a breather. To dream that you are almost hit by a car suggests that your lifestyle, beliefs or goals may be in conflict with another's. It may also be symbolic of a jolting experience or injured pride. To dream that you are unable to roll up the windows of your car suggests that you are showing some hesitation and reservation about the direction that you are taking in life or the path that you have chosen.

3.5 Driving Skillfully
Few dreams fall into this category, but when they do they are extremely significant, suggesting easier access to skills for coping with difficult life situations. 958 657 224 695 026 471 3558 9599 7309 0712 2771 4777 | | |

What Are the Universal Dreams?
We've all had them--those alarming dreams of being chased by something grisly, a loved one getting hurt or dying, driving a car without brakes, not knowing the answers to a test, falling fearfully through the air, appearing naked or half-dressed in public, or racing for the train that has just departed. These and other bad dreams that everyone experiences at some point in their lives are too familiar.
What most of us don't realize is that these very same dreams are universal. They have existed from before the beginning of recorded literature, and will occur tonight in every country of our planet. They cross different cultures and classes. They endure over time.
Despite knowing a great deal about dreams, very few people recognized Gilgamesh's earthquake dream as being 4000 years old! Fewer still identified the dreamer of the lost gloves as living in China.
I propose that there are 12 basic dreams, each of which have positive as well as negative versions. By understanding more about these 12 bad dreams, and their mirror opposites, how these basic themes vary, and what the motifs they contain usually mean, we'll be able to share our knowledge about dreams in a clearer, more specific, theory-free form. Thanks ~ Patricia Garfield, Ph.D., President of ASD Hi Empress-N Nice topic very usefull information, I used to not dream or not remember, now i have trained myself to physically wake up and write down what i see, sometimes it is the only way to get the information across to me, i tell them to send me strong dreams and they do, sometimes the dream is so strong that i will wake up in the middle of the night, they usually dont send them that strong but alot of times i will find a bill that came up unexpected and that is the money that i hit for, i seem to see alot of things right before i go to sleep and sometimes when i get up, I know that this is when the body is most relaxed. I think we all have had these dreams, but there is usually a way that i can tell a dream from a dream. like a surreal dream, an object or someone will look way off which tells me, this is the person object or whatever that i need to focus on....They are the dreams that feel like im awake and actually in them....I also had asked to remember my dreams and like you said it takes alot of practice, its an ongoing thing, the more you practice the better you get, i have written in the dark and woke up to look at the paper, the last few times i was being given nos in my dream and they were telling me to write them down as i would forget, and they kept repeating it over and over again i was telling them that i would for sure remember that, and that i would write it down in the morning, so what happened when i woke up, I TOTALLY FORGOT! WAS going to say that these nos are going to go everywhere then, i scrolled down and there were the hits and....They will continue to fall. Thanks for this post Good luck everyone and a prosperous new year DG | | |

Hey Empress-N, Happy New Year! Lately I have been having recurring dreams about three topics in particular and don't quite know what to make of them. It's either tornados, playing the lottery or filthy public bathrooms. Any thoughts on these 3 topics and why I continually seem to dream about them? | | |
