Precognitive Dreams?

I have very vivid dreams and I'm fairly well at interpreting them based on personal beliefs of course.

But I have dreams that actually happen.

For example, I dreamt of my sister's pregnancy and then she called me to tell me about it and I was like. "I know I dreamt it!" and 2 other women in my family dreamt it to (maybe it runs in the family)…
That's besides the point though!

I was just wondering, how can you tell if a dream is actually a dream or if it's a vision? Or are they the same thing?

Because I've had dreams AND visions of car accidents that happen almost instantly after I see them.

I also have dreams of people of my past coming back into my life or telling me something important but idk if it's actually going to happen or if it was just a dream.

So how can you tell which one is which?

Well it doesn't appear too many people know. I know I don't know but maybe you can see if there is some sort of pattern or maybe ask when you go to bed that some sort of pattern start to appear, maybe a symbol or something popping up so you can distinguish when it is predictive as opposed to just being symbolic. Worth a shot. Best of luck.

I've had precognition dream since a child, I know the difference from regular dreams but its hard to explain - its something about a charge or adrenalin rush that wakes me up just after the dream that lets me know it is something to happen/unfold within the next 72 hours.

Note how precognitious dreams feel different than regular dreams and see if you find a similarity and a methodology you can relay on to discern them in the future. I think I was in my 20's before there had been enough of them for me to realize the difference.

Usually I find that my prophetic/precognitive dreams never have a story to them. For example, a regular dream (for me) is usually longer. There is a sort of story that unfolds. When my dream is prophetic it usually begins with the event that will occur. Nothing before. If I remember how I led up to the event in my dream then it usually is just a dream.

Hmm ... interesting thought. I never thought to figure it out myself. I always ask my dream interpreter. I used to use a devic template, but now I just ask Archangel Gabriel.

Gabriel will explain the dream content to me. I will ask him if it is prophetic or not. I have many prophetic dreams. I cannot keep track. I think all came true.

A few of my dreams are just reminders or messages, eg. I need to pay attention to personal hygiene, or I need to care more for my mom, etc.

For me there is no discern able difference. But I suspect there are clues I've yet to put my finger on. Often my prophesy symbol is so heavily mixed with just regular dreams. Sometimes I dream a literal scenario.

To be honest though, I feel my reason for having prophetic dreams is not to do anything with the prophesy, but simply to show me these things really exist and to stay on my toes because life and reality are truly magical things.

Our spirits are not anchored to our bodies basically, when the body is at rest and the mind disengaged from thinking the subconscious plays back things we've done, often with different twist or alternate endings.

Often our spirit leave the body and goes and does and interacts in a variety of ways, sometimes the brain has some recall of this.

Because time is not linear as we were taught to think of it, but all time is unfolding in the same moment the spirit can easily view things unfolding in the 'future', when the brain recalls these viewings from its perspective we have seen the 'future'.

So the dream world can easily become a hash of the subconscious minds recalls and replaying out of events mixed with our spirits wandering about in the multi-verse.

Some people have trained their brains to wake on certain types over events so they can record them in a Dream Journal they keep beside their beds. I've spent decades as a professional artist and often dream my next piece (spirit going into the 'future' and seeing it finished basically), the dream journal is highly useful for remembering nada not forgetting these middle of the night 'dreams'.

A Dream Journal and programming the brain (Google how to do this) might be helpful for our poster to sort out the various type of dreaming and what relevance it might have.

If I am in fact having a precognitive dream I will feel it upon waking up, something will simply click. Its strange because I usually get faces and names mixed up with those i already know ( most of my visions are of people I don't know yet, but play a substantial role in my life ) but the theme and emotion of the event very clear.

Side-note, I get random celebrity sightings that have nothing to do with me but in fact happen the next day or days within my dream.
