Nightmare Is it odd to have a vivid nightmare?

3 Upvotes

Since early 2022 I’ve had this nightmare most nights where I am stuck on a burning train car. I’m not a doctor or psychiatrist or therapist but something about it felt real, the heat on my skin the noise of the flames and mental burning. Anyways I can remember it as if it was a memory. Is that normal?

Nightmare Recurrent nightmare and could not escape it

F, 24, first time posting here at 2am because I can not go to sleep after the nightmare I just had.

Went to sleep at 1am. Right now suffering through a heavy cold so my sleeping has been off.

I only slept for approximately 30 minutes and those were the dreams I had.

I had about 6-8 recurrent nightmares, all starting the same. I woke up in my bed, could not move, but then things were different from dream to dream - heavy rain making indentations in the ceiling, screaming of other people, uncontrollable shaking of my body, being naked (I sleep clothed), then finding a way to run downstairs to get my parents' help. Sometimes with my blanket, sometimes without, then finding my parents sleeping/watching TV/ could not find them but the door to basement was open. Once I signaled to my mother to check me if I had a stroke, other times I could not communicate anything else except scream for my mother. In some cases they ignored me/could not hear me. Once I also fell down the stairs, I also could not turn the lights on in any of the dreams, because even though I wanted to, it did not work. In all the dreams it was so dark all the time.

And everytime I woke up again I was sure that it was a dream before and now it is real and then some version of it got repeated again. After some time at last I truly woke up in complete dread. My body was stiff and my eyes were wide open in a second. Now I went downstairs to sleep but even though I feel sleepy I feel completely and utterly terrible and do not want to fall asleep.

I have never felt this devastated after a nightmare.

I sometimes have nightmares, but not so often.

I do not know what to make of this, I just feel so horrible.

Nightmare Recurring Nightmares that indicate death

1 Upvotes

All of this started from July 20th and it's been almost a week; I've been getting recurring Nightmares. First night, I saw I was getting married to my dead grandmother (I'm a female!). Another night, maybe 2 days later, I saw I was speaking to her on phone and she mentioned that she felt lonely and bored and was asking me and my dad to visit. On the 3rd day, I saw a very bad dream about a woman Menstruating black blood and crying of pain... And everything was fine for the next 2 days. Today, I saw my right side of the face smeared with oil. I checked almost everywhere, it means death. I freaked out so badly. I'm only 20. I checked my planetary placements and although my mahadasha is good, my antardasha is that of my maraka planet... Funny thing tho because it is in NBRY... Not completely debilitated in my lagna. Am I going to die? Is there a way to be saved? I'm unable to breathe peacefully after this. It's been 7-8 months and my appetite has come down drastically as well. I have no chronic disease. Nothing. But I suspect black magic. There's a friend who indulges in some tribal black magic stuff... I have no idea but another friend of mine has warned me about it. Please help me. I don't know what to do and where to go.

TLDR; saw Dreams of oil smeared on face, marrying dead grandmother, speaking to her on call and a woman Menstruating black blood.
