Fascinating Facts About Dreams: You May Have A Lot More Dreams Than You Realize

You Simply Don’t Remember Them All!

A lot of people think they only have one dream each night. They’d be surprised to learn that they probably have more than one. A LOT more.

In an interesting article on WebMD about dreams, dream expert Lauri Quinn Loewenberg explained it this way: “We dream every 90 minutes throughout the night, with each cycle of dreaming being longer than the previous. The first dream of the night is about 5 minutes long and the last dream you have before awakening can be 45 minutes to an hour long.

I guess it’s pretty obvious why we’re more apt to remember our last dream rather than our first dream!



UPDATE:  I’m re-doing the entire Dream Dictionary on the website. WHY? Simple. Dream symbols change over time and, therefore, their interpretations or meanings also change. The most accurate dream dictionary is one that changes and updates with the times.  The guide is linked to in the top nav bar throughout the website and each letter (A – Z) will appear in the drop down menu. It’s a work (or a RE-work, to be more precise!) in progress, so – as of today – there aren’t a lot of entries.

In the meantime, simply enter your dream symbol in the search box (on the right) to find an interpretation on the website. With all the dream interpretations, I think I’ve covered just about everything imaginable, but if you’re unable to find what you’re looking for, either e-mail me or leave a comment on any of the previous posts.
