Have you ever had a dream in which some ideas became clarified for you?

Yes. I was ticketed for operating a commercial enterprise in the parks (State) and this law contained a definition which allows that displays of merchandise shall be considered commercial activity.
I thought for sure they had me. (I have beaten several tickets for sales w/out a permit and one for operating a business).
But one night before the trial I awoke with a start. In my dream I had questioned that my artwork was actually merchandise per se.
Well, suffice to say, I won the case because the prosecution couldn’t prove my artwork is merchandise!

I’ve solved bugs in code i was writing while dreaming. It’s pretty funny, you can spend all day banging your head on your keyboard and then you get some sleep and the answer comes to you in a dream.

I’ve worked out feelings about an issue in dreams, particularly my feelings about the loss of my first home which I dreamed about living in again over a series of years.

I have had epiphanies, found peace, decided a course of actions, understood concepts I was struggling with while sleeping. I love my subconscious life.

I often dream I am weightless. That I float during dreams. But then I become scared of being unanchored as Each step I get higher and further away from people and things I know. Then I remember gravity and while i I don’t immediately fall I land hard. Not quite the same thing. Though there are times I feel that way in conscious form. And I have been told sometimes it appears I float.

It more represents how I self regulate myself once I begin to follow my dreams. My lack of confidence in myself. The internal battle for security versus following my dreams.

I once made a building and the setup was so confusing that I couldn’t think of a practical way to number the rooms. I eventually had a dream about the building and in the dream I discovered a good pattern. A similar idea happened with another building.

Whenever my father has a problem to work out, he takes a nap or goes to sleep.
There’s always a notepad and a pen on his nightstand. Almost always he’ll find solutions in his dreams. He’ll wake up in the middle of the night and write them down and go back to sleep.

Yes, sometimes in dreams and sometimes it is a dream where I am half awake. I may fall asleep with questions on my mind and fall off slightly and come full awake with a solution. I’m dreaming that I am asleep but it is like my mind quickly puzzling over solutions. I think in a relax state we can often come up with a solution that we already knew but is stored deep in our memory and we can access it only when we are relaxed. Recently my skin has gotten thin and I was wondering what can I do to make it stronger. I dreamt the solution was washing with epson salt and decided to try it. It is remarkable how quickly my skin is feeling thicker and fuller and healthier. Scabs from pimples are healing at least 3 times quicker than normal. Btw, any one wanting to do this should know that you should rinse it off your skin after 20 minutes or you skin will feel dry. My pores are even noticeably tighter after one week. Also some people may be allergic to epson salt.
In my dream I was telling myself about how magnesium is good for the skin.

Yes. Sometimes the “me” in my dreams can do more things than the real me.

I’m no poet, but sometimes in my dream I can make long complicated poems I can never imagine (too bad I always forget everything as I wake up).

When I lay in bed thinking about my story ideas, I can expect my dream to give me more ideas too.

Once I made up a really good quote in my dream, sadly now I can’t remember :(

@lugerruger Same here :(

@Mimishu1995 I often come up with poems, long creative sentences that would be great in a book, songs, comedy monologues, and other stuff and I’m so pleased with myself. Then I wake up and can’t remember any of it and it bums me out.

A couple of times recently, I’ve come up with some interesting Q’s to ask on Fluther, and then when I wake up, poof, they’re gone.
