So, you guys have dreams that you can remember sometimes, right? And they sometimes include recurring motifs? Or, if you can't remember your dreams vividly, you can at least recall some daydreams that spiraled out of control, and that had some recurring themes? Well, if television, movies and books is any indication, these are very likely predictions of the future, or at least metaphorical foreshadowing. What kind of future do your dreams and daydreams predict for you?
For myself, I can't really remember my dreams from when I'm asleep, but I do daydream a lot. Roughly a third of all daydreams I can control what's happening in them, and for the rest, they just go on their own. Taking these daydreams literally, I can make three predictions about my future which are honestly rather disturbing. They tend to each happen in their own dream, though sometimes two of them will happen in the same one. All three have never happened in the same daydream, that I can remember:
So, yeah, based on your recurring dreams or recurring daydreams, what's your future going to be like?

They tend to each happen in their own dream, though sometimes two of them will happen in the same one. All three have never happened in the same daydream, that I can remember:
- I will lose a body part. It varies from daymare to daymare, but most commonly I lose an eye through various contrived means, though maybe one in four of these daymares have me losing a hand or a foot or even just a finger or two. It is disturbing how often this comes up in my daymares, with it being one of the most common recurring characteristics of them.
- I undergo some religious revelation. It tends to be a near-death experience that causes it, like drowning in a swimming pool or being struck by lightning. It's only Christianity or Judaism some of the time, with it being more often than not a form of paganism - generally Norse/Anglo-Saxon/Germanic paganism (which worshipped Thor/Odin/Baldr/Tir/Freyr/etc.), though sometimes Greco-Roman, sometimes Egyptian, sometimes some other pre-Christian European belief system and sometimes Gods that, to my knowledge, don't exist in any mythologies. When it is Christianity or a more familiar religion, it tends to be an insanely different variant of it, like some kind of non-Trinitarian Christianity, etc.
When coupled with me losing an eye, it is always either Germanic/Norse paganism or made up gods that don't otherwise exist outside of my head and are ill-defined there. - I will die painfully, violently, tragically and young. Sometimes it's intentional, sometimes it's not, sometimes it's at my own hand and sometimes it's someone else's doing, but, if recurring daydreams are any indication, I probably won't live past 40. This is, by the way, daydreams of my own violent death separate from a longing for my own death: It's not an indication of depression, and it is very different from those fantasies of suicide that you tend to get when you're at your emotional bottom.
So, yeah, based on your recurring dreams or recurring daydreams, what's your future going to be like?
