. -In Our Dreams We Only See Faces Already Past Seen

Our mind is not inventing faces – in our dreams we see real faces of real people that
we have seen during our life but
may not know or remember. We have all seen hundreds of thousands of faces
throughout our lives, so we have an
endless supply of characters for our brain
to utilize during our dreams.



3. Not Everybody Dreams in Color

A full 12% of sighted dreams are exclusively in black and white. The remaining number dream in
full color. Studies from 1915 through to the 1950s maintained that the majority of dreams were in
black and white, but these results
began to change in the 1960s.
Today, only 4.4% of the dreams of under-25 year-old
are in black and white. Recent research has
suggested that those changing results may be
linked to the switch from black-and-white film
and TV to color media.

4. Body Paralysis

Rapid eye movement (REM) is a normal stage of sleep characterized by rapid movements
of the eyes. REM sleep in
adult humans typically occupies 20-25% of total sleep, about 90-120 minutes
of a night's sleep.
During REM sleep the body is paralyzed by a mechanism
in the brain in order to prevent physical movements
which occur in the dream. However, it is possible
for this mechanism to be triggered before, during,
or after normal sleep while the brain awakens.

5. Blind People also Dream

People who became blind after birth can see images
in their dreams. People who are born blind do not
see any images, but have dreams equally vivid
involving their other senses of sound, smell, touch and emotion.

6. Everybody Dreams

Every human being dreams (except in cases of
extreme psychological disorder). If you think,
you are not dreaming, you just forget your dreams.

7. Dreams are Symbolic

If you dream about some particular subject it is
not often that the dream is about that. Dreams
speak in a deeply symbolic language.

. Emotions & Nightmares

The most common emotion experienced in dreams
is anxiety. Negative emotions are more common
than positive ones. So don't worry, you are not
the only one getting nightmares frequently.

Four to seven dreams in one night

On average, you can dream anywhere from one
or two hours every night.

. Animals Dream Too

Studies have been done on many different animals,
and they all show the same brain waves during dreaming sleep
as humans. Watch a dog sleeping sometime.
The paws move like they are running and they
make yipping sounds as if they are chasing
something in a dream.

. Dream Incorporation

Our mind interprets the external stimuli that
our senses are bombarded with when we are
asleep and make them a part of our dreams. This means that sometimes,
in our dreams, we hear a sound from reality
and incorporate it in a way. For example you
may be dreaming that you are in a concert,
while someone is playing some music during your sleep.

. Men and Women Dream Differently

Men tend to dream more about other men.
Around 70% of the characters in a man's dream are other men. On the other hand,
a woman's dream contains almost
an equal number of men and women. Aside
from that, men generally have more aggressive
emotions in their dreams than the female.

. Precognitive Dreams

Precognition, also called future sight, refers to
perception that involves the acquisition of future information that cannot be deduced from
presently available and normally
acquired sense-based information
Results of several surveys across large population
sets indicate that between 18% and 38% of people have experienced
at least one precognitive
dream and 70% have experienced
déjà vu. The percentage of persons that believe
precognitive dreaming is possible is even higher,
ranging from 63% to 98%.
