I don't think my wife wants me to give her antique jewelry -- she's got a thing about antiques --she doesn't like them. She's a very modernist sort of person, but she might like modern jewelry. Writing a mystery about or a story about a piece of jewelry might be my best bet.Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-30160967715714989422010-01-29T21:48:26.158-08:002010-01-29T21:48:26.158-08:00I think dreams tell you something...perhaps these ...I think dreams tell you something...perhaps these two dreams are telling you what a blessing your granddaughter is...<br /><br />Perhaps, it's telling you to write a mystery about a piece of jewelry...<br /><br />Perhaps, it's reminding you to appreciate your granddaughter and to encourage her to reach for the stars...<br /><br />Or, maybe they are telling you to buy your wife a piece of antique jewelry for Valentine's Day...<br /><br />Hope you figure it out. :)Sharon K.

I also believe they can come from God.Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-66564464904315446572010-01-29T18:12:28.879-08:002010-01-29T18:12:28.879-08:00Without knowing what you worry about or stress ove...Without knowing what you worry about or stress over, I think it would be hard to decipher your dreams. So much of the time, your dreams are your subconscious working out the problems. Case in point, there was a time that I dreamed I could fly jet fighter planes. When in the air, I would shoot down other planes, or anything airborne. It felt so good being behind the guns and seeing other planes fall from the sky. Turns out that there were so many negative events in my life that I felt I had no control, the shooting down the planes was a way of my subconscious getting rid of my problems. The exhilaration I felt was me getting back control by getting rid of my problems. Another dream was me hunting through a house, an attic to be exact, I kept looking for a baby. This turned out to be my subconscious helping me find a way out of a sticky situation. Maybe with Marley you're trying to find a new start or begin something new that could grow into a new career or job. Maybe the policeman means there is danger be it financial or emotional and you feel threatened, yet it hasn't reached a critical point, so the policeman passed by. Like I said, a lot of the time, dreams have to deal with what's going on now and in the past.JudyH329https://www.blogger.com/profile/04169383110345540966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-70067168060447118942010-01-29T17:15:21.728-08:002010-01-29T17:15:21.728-08:00Alan -- If you get in the habit of recording your ...Alan -- If you get in the habit of recording your dreams they start becoming more memorable and more vivid. But it does take time in the morning right away because I find if I wait too long I usually forget the dreams very quickly.<br /><br />Jarmara -- as you have seen I do like my dreams, but I doubt that I dream any more than most people. I just make a effort to think about them. My jewelry dream was not any of the ones you described.<br /><br />Tamika ---I do believe that dreaming can be a tool of the Holy Spirit to speak to us.<br /><br />A to Z - I'm sure that sickness can influence our dreams and that the subconcious mind can sense the onset of sickness. I hope you're right about rapid advancement as a writer.

The only thing that may come close is that I know when I'm going to get sick by the type of nightmare I have. If I have a very intense nightmare, I usually vomit after. Not sure if that's a dream predicting my sickness or my dreams are so vivid that I can actually feel them. <br /><br />I did read that if you find jewels/jewelry in a dream that it signifies rapid advancement.

It was more of a communication- Him sharing something with me that I had been asking in my prayers.

My dream book: ...Arlee, you do a lot of dreaming... My dream book: 10,000 Dreams interpreted,<i> A complete guide to the meaning of your dreams</i> was bought from a charity shop, but was published in 1985 by Coles Publishing company Limited Toronto, Canada ISBN 0-7740-3620-6<br /><br />Jewelry: to dream of broken jewelry, denotes keen disappointment in attaining one's highest desires. <br /><br />Jewels: To wear them, brings rank and satisfied ambitions. If you inherit jewelry your prosperity will be unusual, but not entirely satisfactory.<br />To dream of giving of giving jewelry away, warns you that some vital estate is threatening you. <br /><br />I hope this will help you. Do I believe dreams predict the future. maybe if you can full understand what they are saying to you.Paula RChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05550276147711384895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-83848717667301527532010-01-29T11:41:24.176-08:002010-01-29T11:41:24.176-08:00I find this sort of thing fascinating.

Now I can't even remember what I've been dreaming about.<br /><br />I've had nightmares twice in my life that came in a short period of time just after my sister died.

But probably what it did was answer a question. <br /><br />We'd recently moved to a new city and we still had many unpacked boxes. It was early winter and a cold front was predicted for the next week. I had purchased new buttons for my coat before our move, as I had lost one the previous year. I'd been searching for them for a couple of days and decided I would just have to go buy more.<br /><br />That night I dreamed where they were. When I woke up I went to the place in my dream and they were in the same exact spot.<br /><br />Love your dream posts.Carol Kilgorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15168273312704732896noreply@blogger.com
