Prophetic dreams: how to interpret?

The ability to extract some useful information from dreams and interpret them is called the beautiful Greek word "onyromantic". The Greek "onyeros", from which the name of the art of interpretation of dreams came to be, is translated into Russian as "prophetic dreams". Even in the first century AD, the Greek scientist Artemidor was very interested in this mysterious phenomenon. He also introduced this term, collecting and analyzing the predictive value of more than three thousand dreams of different people.

All the dreams the scientist divided into two big categories. This is an enupion, that is, "empty" dreams, meaningless, and onyros, that is, god-sent prophetic dreams. Oneyros, in turn, is further subdivided into two categories: an allegoricon that does not require interpretation and "coded" allegorical dreams. It was the dreams of the allegorical that served as the basis for the mysterious art, which was called "the interpretation of prophetic dreams" and formed the basis of all known dream books.

I must say that not every dream lends itself to interpretation. How to distinguish prophetic dreams from "empty"? Under what conditions and when dreaming prophetic dreams? It is very difficult to distinguish prophetic dreams from ordinary ones - outwardly they practically do not differ in any way, although someone says that onyrosh have some special coverage, some argue that they are remembered in every detail, being logical and connected, while ordinary ones Dreams consist of some pieces and sometimes are not remembered at all.

But still numerous evidences say that this is not always the case, that even some connectedness and alignment of the plot of the dream is due to the fact that the dreamer already somehow supplemented, thought out his dream, adding it in a subconscious way to a logical conclusion. By the way, a person's ability to remember dreams can also depend on practice - it's easy to improve if you do it purposefully.

It is quite clear that the not explanatory dreams of pheromatics, descriptions of which are found in the Bible at key moments of History, unequivocally refer to prophetic dreams in which God addresses a particular person, wanting to inform him of something very important.

There are in the Bible and repeated descriptions of allegorical dreams allegoric, like the dream of a pharaoh, which he saw twice and required interpretation - it turned out that this was a warning about the upcoming difficult times for Egypt and other countries and recommendations for actions that should be aimed at overcoming the forthcoming terrible drought. Repeatability of the dream can also indicate that this dream is prophetic.

Thus, we see that in the matter of determining Oneiros, it is better to proceed from what dreams can not be prophetic under any circumstances. Strongly interfere with the correct perception of dreams, such negative factors as empty or, conversely, a full stomach (either feasts and meals with an empty stomach, or nightmares with overeating), noise and bright light in the room, severe fatigue, various psychosomatic disorders, fever and many Other factors.

Dreaming under these conditions can hardly be a prophetic dream. On the contrary, the light pleasant music without words, the book at night or watching a good movie contribute to the perception of sleep. The amount of predictive information contained in dreams can directly depend on the time of day in which the dream was dreamed.

It is considered, for example, that most often dreams come to a person just before dawn, and dreams of the first half of the night are most often associated with the events of the past day or with the state of health of a person. The "predictability" of dreams is influenced by the day of the week and the phases of the moon. So many interpreters believe that dreams that come to pass on the night of Tuesday, Thursday and Friday come true.

From all that has been said, one can not only interpret the prophetic dreams that came to man as a result of some circumstances, but quite consciously cause them. To do this, it is often enough to fall asleep with a clear mood to get predictive information in a dream, under certain, specially created conditions, at the most favorable time and in good health. So in ancient times for different purposes there were special temples for this purpose, Was the obtaining of predictions in a dream.

If there is a great desire to see a prophetic dream, one must be well aware of when dreaming dreams are made and under what conditions. In this case, it is possible to create all the necessary conditions and choose the appropriate time.

At the same time, one should not forget about the warning in the Bible about the inadmissibility of knowing your future ...
