  • wow! Sorry but I never dream like this. I don’t know how you get such dreams most people i know don’t have dreams like that either. They have to mean something though. For example did you think about angles the day before the dream? And did you think about Abu Seifen while you were getting tempted before? Or are these just random dreams you don’t know where they come from? Maybe they are signs idk.

    Ask your parents or if you have siblings if they came at night and held your hand. I know moms do that a lot.
  • This is random....but i believe that wearing a cross helps with these kind of dreams.

    57. DREAMS

    1. Some dreams are from God:
    Such as what happened with Joseph, the Carpenter and the
    Magi.  Joseph, in a dream, was told to take the child and his
    mother and go to Egypt.  The Magi were asked, in a dream, to
    return by a different route.

    Further the dreams that were seen or interpreted by Joseph, the
    righteous, or Daniel the Prophet.  They were all dreams
    predicting future incidents.

    2. There are dreams from Satan:
    They deceive man and lead him astray, make him take a sinful
    way or disturb him by certain dreams.  In "The Sayings of the
    Desert Fathers", there is a long chapter about such dreams.

    3. Some dreams are the outcome of the subconscious:
    Whatever you see, hear or read, is gathered by the senses from
    different sources and what the thought collects... all remains
    stored in the subconscious... It comes out, even after years, in
    the form of thoughts, doubts or dreams...

    This is a very natural reaction... This stock in the subconscious could come out in different
    forms... Names, times, places or some details might differ, but it
    presents something that is deeply rooted inside you, like a
    recorded tape...

    4. Dreams could be a reflection of a physical position:
    When an exhausted person goes to sleep and the alarm
    clock rings, since he does not want to wake up, he dreams
    of sitting next to a ringing telephone...

    A wise person does not let dreams lead him.
    He would not believe each dream and consider it from God,
    because if the devils knew that he would believe in dreams, they
    will deceive him by appearing in false dreams.

    Evil dreams happen for many reasons...
    Some reasons are physical or psychological, others are attacks
    from devils.  It is better if one does not think of these dreams
    after waking up, lest his thoughts result in its confirmation and
    cause others...
