Dreams and Intuition

Every night we experience the extraordinary phenomena called dreaming. Have you ever sat down and actually thought about what a dream is or why we have them? Do you ever wonder why even the world’s leading brain specialists cannot even explain why we have these bizarre experiences? There are infinite possibilities on what their purpose truly is and that is what makes dreams so interesting.

I often find myself pondering strange things that have happened throughout my life, sometimes I get so deep into thought that I start to think, “how can I consider this “strange” when it’s the only thing I know”. There are so many things in this world that confuse me and make me question many things, but dreaming is truly one of the most intriguing parts of being alive.

Just like breathing or your heart beating, dreaming is something that we have no control over in most cases. Dreaming can be credited to the unconscious mind, which makes it that more mysterious. Many people claim that the dreams we have can be accredited to experiences in our everyday life, and as a result dreams can be translated in a way that helps one improve their life as a conscious being. I find these ideas to be extremely interesting, how is it that our unconscious mind is more self aware than the consciousness that is creating these life experiences.

One of the most mind blowing hypothesis for dreaming is the idea that we are watching/experiencing ourselves in alternate universes. Scientists have reason to believe that the universe has split an infinite amount of times, just like a cell creating body. This gives the idea that there are an infinite amount universes where “you” exist and also where “you” don’t exist.

So, what do dreams have to do with this? Well maybe this theory can explain the sheer oddness of our dream experiences and why they never really make sense to us. It could also possibly explain why we are in places or are talking to people that we have never seen before. We may be experiencing life in alternate universes through dreams by our unconscious mind.

Along with dreams we as humans are equipped with a beautiful thing called intuition. Intuition is defined as “ the ability to understand something immediately, without the need for conscious reasoning” and is something that is just as mind blowing as dreaming. As human beings we are given intuition to help guide us through the toughest of situations, but why? Why do we have the ability to know what is right or truly wrong. Trusting your gut is something that is told to us from the very beginning of our lives, though some may not choose to follow it.

Some have hypothesized that intuition is your subconscious mind guiding you through your life through past-life experiences. In other words you are given knowledge or “intuition” from past lives you have lived and are able to use it in your current life you are living.

So, I find it odd that we are given these amazing tools as human beings. How different would our life or even the world be without them. I truly believe that we are so lucky to have a mind that can explore so many more avenues than what is at the surface. Dreaming and intuition is just the start of an ever expanding universe and mind.

My advice to you is to always use these tools as a way to create a better understanding of you and everything around you, because without it you would never be the same.
