There was a time in my life where I was engrossed in my dreams. I would keep a notebook next to my bed, and before sleeping, I would tell myself to jot down any dream that came along. I remember being half awake and writing the dreams down. It was quite an experience. I consulted some dream dictionaries to try and understand them. They could not always be taken at face value.
A few dreams did come true, and some were prophetic. My mother has that ability to dream prophetically. There have been many a time where a dream would alert her to something bad about someone in her family and she would contact them, and lo and behold, they were going through a difficult time. She had a dream about a year ago that she was sleeping and someone told her that she had a stroke and the ambulance was outside, and she insisted that that she didn't have a stroke. The next morning, she saw an ambulance across the street. Her neighbor's wife had a stroke overnight and the ambulance had come to take her. Talking about prophetic!!!
