Then one day, these events actually happen! Prophetic dreams are a subject that causes a lot of controversy.

Are there prophetic dreams?

Sleep is a mysterious world that we dive into every night. According to esotericists, dreams are a kind of communication channel with our subconscious, or even with our higher powers. In dreams, we can receive important clues and warnings. Dreams can be symbolic messages that help us understand our life situations or make important decisions.

From a scientific perspective, dreams are the result of our brain working in the REM phase of sleep, when the eyes move rapidly. At this time, brain activity increases significantly and we have the most vivid and unforgettable dreams. Scientific research shows that during REM sleep, the brain processes information from the day, solves problems, and even practices important skills. Therefore, what we see in our dreams can be a reflection of our thoughts, experiences, and even intuitive guesses.

How to interpret dreams correctly?

One of the most famous is Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic theory of dreams. Freud argued that dreams are the fulfillment of our hidden desires and the manifestation of repressed emotions. According to him, human consciousness consists of several levels, and a significant part of our thoughts and desires are at the unconscious level. According to Freud, dreams serve as a kind of “window” into this unconscious, allowing us to look at what is hidden from consciousness.

Freud believed that dreams have two levels of content: manifest and latent. Manifest content is the images, events, and characters we see in dreams, that is, the ones we can remember and identify with. But this is only a “disguise” of real thoughts and feelings. Latent content is the real desires and experiences that underlie a dream and are usually unacceptable to our consciousness, so they are hidden behind symbols.

So dreams can be both clues to the world of esotericism and the result of the complex work of our brain. But it is important to remember: no matter what point of view you adhere to, dreams should not be taken literally. Interpret symbols and signs that can help you better understand yourself and your problems.
