Dream FAQ
Dictionary: Do dreams predict the future?
Do dreams predict the future? A. This, like many other things commonly referred to as "paranormal",is to be considered unknown. There is much evidence against it, itwould contradict the laws of nature as recognized by most scientiststoday. (Any information getting from future to past would have tobreak the speed of light, which is impossible. More on this can befound in the sci.physics FAQ postings.) However, many people insiston having experienced "deja-vu" like situations where they came into asetting they already had dreamed of. Could they prove it? Probablynot (cf. section 5.3) but this fact alone doesn't prove theexperiences invalid. (Proving a subjective experience *wrong* isimpossible.) Now, how come the many deja-vus? A common explanation is a smallmisfunction of the brain. Some piece of information, like the look ofa particular place where you haven't been before, gets from short-terminto long-term memory via some sort of "shortcut" rather than theusual remembrance mechanism. (How this exactly works is currently notknown in detail.) Then, when matching short-term against long-termmemory, you think that you have the piece in long-term memory fromsomewhere in the past while it has entered long-term memory justrecently. This could explain some of the instances, but the possibility of themind "travelling in time" (or place, cf. section 4.1) can not bedismissed - many people claim they have done it and can do it again.

| | |  Dream Symbol Brain: Dream Interpretation Dictionary - Various Bird Symbology:
Birds : Dream Interpretation Dictionary - Various Bird Symbology:
Various Bird Symbology: White Dove: well known symbol of peace; a symbol of the Holy Spirit descending on Christ, as depicted in many artistic works. A pair of white doves is a common symbol of love and devotion. Mourning Dove: commonly thought of as a potential symbol of upcoming death to someone you know, but only if it is seen in unusual circumstances and not just eating at the bird feeder or sitting on a telephone line. Eagle: Among the 7 mortal sins, depicts pride; among the 4 cardinal virtues, justice. Symbol of John the Evangelist, depicting spiritual cognition, faith, healing and ascension. Similar powerful symbol of the Great Spirit to the American Indians, who use it's feathers in many ceremonial dress & implements. Goose: symbol of fidelity and loyalty. Could also be a metaphor for "being goosed" or "acting like a goose." Ostrich: closing eyes to unpleasant facts. Just mentioning "Y2K" will make many ostriches out of you! <smile> Also a symbol of meditation, since the Ostrich parent does not sit and hatch it's eggs, but lets the sun do it's work while it guards them vigilantly. Owl: wisdom, as portrayed in so many children's stories and cartoons. Peacock: pride, vanity and showing off due to the male's proud strut; but the male does this as part of his mating ritual to get the attention of the female, so I would apply this as such. It is used to symbolize the American CBS network, and a metaphor could be "showing your true colors." The peacock also symbolizes joy in the afterlife. True story: my mother & I visited my grandmother's grave one afternoon to find a living, breathing peacock standing there staring at us. When I found out that it symbolized "joy in the afterlife," you can imagine how special that was. How often does one find a peacock standing on a grave? Coincidence, my foot! Nightingale: symbolizes yearning and pain; in Christianity it symbolizes the longing for heaven. Raven: intelligence; oftentimes depicting things we really prefer not to hear. Stork: instantly recognizable in our culture as a symbol that a baby has been delivered or is due, possibly due to the young stork's habit of gratefully feeding it's parents when it becomes a fledgling; or due to the stork's return after winter migration, when nature begins anew. Swan: transformation, as in from "ugly duckling" into a beautiful swan. Also symbolizes loyalty and fidelity. Turkey: Is any American unfamiliar with the symbology of "Turkey Day?" Also referred to as a metaphor often used to describe something as being silly, or an embarrassing failure or dud. Vulture: impending death, or a metaphor for waiting to take advantage of someone in dire trouble, as in "the vultures are circling." Egg: symbolizes primal beginnings from which all life springs forth; also in Christianity this is a symbol of resurrection (ever wonder where the thought of Easter Eggs came from?), as in Christ breaking out of his tomb similar to a chick breaking free from it's egg. Could also have metaphorical influence, such as the age-old question, "Which came first--the chicken or the egg?" In this manner it could be saying, "Some questions can never be answered by mere humans, so quit agonizing over a problem without solutions and deal with what-is, as it is." Other types of symbology involving birds: metaphors such as "bird-brain", "You eat like a bird", "birds of a feather flock together," "that's for the birds", "A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush", "feathered friends", etc. Just apply the metaphor to the context of your dream to get the gist of what the symbology entails. Also helpful is relating bird dream symbols to song lyrics. Think of how many different songs mention birds in one way or another. Courtesy to: http://www.readersdigest.ca

Interpretation - Pain
Pain Physical Pain in dreams is an interesting phenomenon. Sometimes, a peculiar sleeping position becomes the trigger event for a painful dream. It's the body's way of saying, "Hey stupid, roll over." However, the ability of the brain to produce physical stimuli that match the dream event is an amazing thing. It makes dreams that are emotionally realistic even more real. Often, the pain sensation is related to a particular facet of body awareness or relationship disparity. Nowhere is this more apparent than in dreams of injury, infection, and amputation where physical sensations accompany visual images. Try to recall where the pain was centered, and relate that body part to aspects of your life that are applicable. Was the pain caused by you, another person, or an object? Was it caused purposefully, or by accident? Was the pain acute or merely a nuisance? Psychological In dreams, we are often faced with dilemmas that create a lot of anxiety for the dreamer. Some of the things we do not know directly in our self-awareness are unknown because the trauma of unmediated awareness would be devastating. If dreams cause psychological pain, it should be treated much the same way as physical pain. Does it hurt enough to get help, or just a little bit when precipitated by peculiar actions? How often does it occur, and is it staying the same or getting worse? Does it interfere with daily routines because the lingering pain is so troubling? Do you feel you have enough knowledge and resources to treat the pain yourself, or does it feel as if the pain has deep roots in your life? Depending on how you answer these questions, you may wish to seek professional help dealing with the psychological pain of dream events.

| | |  Dream Symbol Brain: Dream WorksIn the stillness of the night, when not a sound breaks the hushed silence, they timorously creep into your mind. Fragile, flittering forms—often more real than reality—seek you out from the deepest abyss of your soul and open for you a vista of visions—nonsensical, terrifying, fantastic—and sometimes, just sometimes, hauntingly beautiful. You wake up with a lump in your throat that threatens to cascade down your eyes, a lingering nostalgia for something near, yet eternity away. But weren't you closer to believing, even then, that somewhere, all that you saw was real; that, beyond the tangible truth of ticking time, you had lived one moment of timeless infinity? Perhaps that's the secret. The chance to glimpse beyond. Why else should we take a dream, those phantasms of the chaotic unconscious, so seriously? Read more here: » Meaning of Dreams: Dream Works |

Aristotle believed that the brain was a cooling mechanism for the blood while the heart was the seat of intelligence. He reasoned that humans are more rational than the beasts because they have a proportionally larger brain to cool their hot-bloodedness See also:Brain, Brain - Mind and brain, Brain - History, Brain - Modern neuroscience, Brain - Comparative anatomy, Brain - Invertebrates, Brain - Vertebrates, Brain - Humans, Brain - Neurobiology, Brain - Histology, Brain - Function, Brain - Brain pathology, Brain - The study of the brain, Brain - Fields of study, Brain - Methods of observation, Brain - Other matters, Brain - Brain as food Read more here: » Brain: Encyclopedia II - Brain - History |

| | |  Dream Symbol Brain: Tarot and the Conscious and Subconscious MindThe
symbolic images on the Tarot cards activate and speak to a deep intuitive part
of ourselves which the logical, conscious mind cannot understand or control.
This part of ourselves is known as the subconscious. This subconscious aspect
of being represents our inner self, those deep, highly personal feelings and
qualities which provide the foundation for our entire being and give us the
motivation behind our behavior, thoughts, emotions, etc. This is the realm of
instinct, gut reactions, innate knowing, and personal potential. It is the home
of our psyche.
