Dreaming is one of the most mysterious and exciting experiences of our life, so it is natural that we want to know as much as possible about the psychology of dreams.
Dreams played an important role in people’s lives as early as 3100 BC, when the Mesopotamian civilization was born, and most of the decisions of this culture were based on the meaning of dreams.
During the Roman era, some dreams were even handed over to the Roman Senate for dream analysis and interpretation.
These were considered messages from the gods. Dream Interpreters follow military leaders in battles too!
And even today we are looking for answers about our vivid dream meanings, although most of the facts about dreams have been discovered and are now based on psychology.
In addition to this, it is also known that many artists, and even scientists, have obtained the best ideas from their dreams. But What We Really Know About Dreams And Their Meaning

dreams Every human being dreams (except in cases of extreme mental disorder). If you think you are not dreaming, it is simply because you forget your dreams. In our dreams we see only faces that we already know
Our mind does not invent faces: in a dream we see real faces of real people that we have seen during our life, but we may not know or remember them.
We have all seen hundreds of thousands of faces in our life, so we have an infinite number of signs our brain can use during their dreams. Not everyone dreams of color
Part of 12% of people dream exclusively in black and white. Others have color dreams.
Studies from 1915 to 1950 claim that most dreams were black and white, but those results began to change in the 1960s.
Today, only 4.4% of dreams in people under the age of 25 are black and white.
Recent research suggests that these varying results may be linked to the shift from black and white film and television to color media. Dreams Are Symbolic
Dreams speak in profoundly symbolic language. Whatever symbol your dream chooses, it is most likely a symbol for itself. Emotions

have been performed on many different animals and all have shown the same brain waves during sleep as in humans. Body paralysis
Fast Eye Movement Sleep (REM) is a normal sleep phase characterized by rapid eye movements.
REM sleep in adults usually accounts for 20-25% of total sleep, approximately 90-120 minutes of nighttime sleep.
During REM sleep, the body paralyzes the mechanism in the brain to prevent movement from occurring during sleep.
However, it is possible that this mechanism is activated before, during or after normal sleep until the brain wakes up. Including Dreams
Our mind interprets the external stimuli from which our senses are bombarded when we sleep and makes them part of our dreams.
This means that sometimes in a dream we hear a sound from reality and somehow we incorporate it. For example, you may dream that you are at a concert while someone is playing a guitar near you. Men and women dream differently
Men dream more often about other men. About 70% of the signs 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. Also, men in dreams generally have more aggressive emotions than women. Precognitive dreams
The results of several surveys on groups of large numbers of people show that between 18% and 38% of people have experienced at least one precognitive dream, and 70% have experienced “Deja vi” (French deja vu – gia seen).
The percentage of people who believe that the precognitive dream is possible is even higher: it ranges from 63% to 98%. If you snore, you cannot dream
