Dream's facts that amaze me

I believe that dreams point out or indicate us toward real life possible incident. Some people like dream and some not there are different perception regarding day dreaming and night dreaming. some people says night dreaming indicate possible upcoming incident and other people think just opposite it. Some dream fact are giving bellow.

10. Blind People Dream

People who become blind after birth can see images in their dreams. Individuals who are born blind do not see any images, but have dreams equally vivid involving their other senses of sound, smell, touch & emotion. It is hard for a seeing person to imagine, but the bodys need for sleep is so strong that it can handle virtually all physical situations to make it happen.

9. You Forget 90% of your Dreams

Within five minutes of waking, half of your dream if forgotten. Within ten, 90% is gone. The famous poet, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, woke morning having had an fabulous dream (likely opium induced) they put pen to paper and began to report his vision in a dream in what has become of English most famous poems: Kubla Khan. Part way through (54 lines in fact) they was interrupted by a Person from Porlock. Coleridge returned to his poem but could not keep in mind the remainder of his dream. The poem was never completed.

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea.
[...]

Curiously, Robert Louis Stevenson came up with the story of Doctor Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde whilst they was dreaming. Wikipedia has more on that here. Mary Shelley Frankenstein was also the brainchild of a dream.

8. Everybody Dreams

Every human being dreams (except in cases of extreme psychological disorder) but men & females have different dreams & different physical reactions. Men tend to dream more about other men, while females tend to dream equally about men & females. In addition, both men & females experience sexually related physical reactions to their dreams irrespective of whether the dream is sexual in nature; males experience erections & females experience increased vaginal blood flow.

7. Dreams Prevent Psychosis

In a recent sleep study, students who were awakened at the beginning of each dream, but still allowed their 8 hours of sleep, all experienced difficulty in concentration, irritability, hallucinations, and signs of psychosis after only three days. When finally allowed their REM sleep the student brains made up for lost time by greatly increasing the percentage of sleep spent in the REM stage. 

6. We Only Dream of What We Know

Our dreams are often filled with strangers who play out positive parts did you know that your mind is not inventing those faces they are actual faces of actual people that you have seen in the coursework of your life but may not know or keep in mind? The nasty killer in your latest dream may be the man who pumped petrol in to your Dad automobile when you were a small kid. They have all seen hundreds of thousands of faces through our lives, so they have an limitless supply of characters for our brain to utilize in the coursework of our dreams.

5. Not Everyone Dreams in Color

A full 12% of sighted people dream exclusively in black and white. The remaining number dream in full color. People also tend to have common themes in dreams, which are situations relating to school, being chased, walking slowly/in place, sexual experiences, falling, arriving late, a person now alive being dead, teeth falling out, flying, failing an examination, or a automobile accident. It is unknown whether the impact of a dream relating to violence or death is more emotionally charged for a who dreams in color than who dreams in black and white.(Source)

4. Dreams are not about what they are about

If you dream about some particular subject it is not often that the dream is about that. Dreams speak in a deeply symbolic language. The unconscious mind tries to compare your dream to something else, which is similar. Its like writing a poem and saying that a group of ants were like machines that seldom cease. But you would seldom compare something to itself, for example: That stunning sundown was like a stunning sunset. So whatever symbol your dream picks on it is most unlikely to be a symbol for itself.

3. Quitters have more vivid dreams

People who have smoked cigarettes for a very long time who cease, have reported much more vivid dreams than they would normally experience. Additionally, according to the Journal of Abnormal Psychology: Among 293 smokers abstinent for between one and four weeks, 33% reported having at least one dream about smoking. In most dreams, subjects caught themselves smoking and felt strong negative emotions, such as panic and guilt. Dreams about smoking were the result of tobacco withdrawal, as 97% of subjects did not have them while smoking, and their occurrence was significantly related to the period of abstinence. They were rated as more vivid than the usual dreams and were as common as most major tobacco withdrawal symptoms.(Source)

2. External Stimuli Invade our Dreams

This is called Dream Incorporation and it is the experience that most of us have had where a sound from reality is heard in our dream and incorporated in some way. A similar (though less outside) example would be when you are physically thirsty and your mind incorporates that feeling in to your dream. My own experience of this includes repeatedly drinking a huge glass of water in the dream which satisfies me, only to find the thirst returning soon after this thirst¦ drink¦ thirst¦ loop often recurs until I wake up and have a actual drink. The famous painting above (Dream Caused by the Flight of a Bee around a Pomegranate a Second Before Awakening) by Salvador Dali, depicts this idea.

1. You are paralyzed while you sleep

Believe it or not, your body is virtually paralyzed in the work of your sleep most likely to prevent your body from acting out aspects of your dreams. According to the Wikipedia article on dreaming, Glands start to secrete a hormone that helps induce sleep & neurons send signals to the spinal cord which cause the body to relax & later become fundamentally paralyzed.
