What are some symbols that keep appearing in your dreams?

I always have dreams containing famous people. Oprah, Barack and Michelle Obama, Bruce Springsteen, Bill Gates...... weird.  

The inside of my eyelids.  I see that a lot.

I've heard that the symbol you dream about is only symbolic of some problem you are worried about. So it doesn't have anything to do with a flag. One thing I read is, that dreambig about a flag means you are thinking about a legal transaction that you have going on. Are you signing any legal contracts? 

i cant ever remember my dreams, maybe its a good thing

How do you know it was in the future?

I don't believe that dreams are predictive of the future.  The thing that struck me was that you perceived the dream to be in the future.  I've read a lot about dreams and the younger guys are turning their backs on the established opinions.   I have never read about dreaming of the future.  Yes, dreams are often what you could put into the science fiction category but that doesn't make it futuristic; that simply makes it a different reality that the one you actually live in.   You dreamt of yourself and family members as older individuals.........I just find that very interesting.  We dream from information in our memory.  I wonder if self consciously you thought about you and your dad/mom getting older the day before your dream.

I just reread your question and you say this is recurring.  That explains the recurring nature because you remember the dream, thereby entering it into you memory.  So the first time you dreamt it is the time that is of interest.  

Aren't you massively pregnant right about now?  That could be a part of it.  I am an internet doctor, you know.

    

Interesting symbology.  

Yes, I have found eating certain foods makes my dreams more strange and much more vivid, so I tend to remember those easier.  Anything containing nitrates and nitrites, such as pepperoni, salami, bologna, hot dogs and bacon seem to trigger this for me (and others I have discussed it with).  Why, I know not.  

I liken most of our dreams to defragging and maintaining your computer's hard drive.  I believe that while we sleep, our mind sorts through, rearranges, and files some things, and flags other things for service (problems we need to work through or things that are nagging at us, for example), and those end up as vivid and/or recurring dreams.  Much of our dreaming is symbolic, and dream dictionaries can generally help with that sometimes, but the precise symbolism is going to be unique to each of us.  

Try looking each of the things up individually and see what, if anything, reasonates with you about it.  Then try tying it all together.  Good luck.  :)

I see women in my dreams.  Lots and LOTS of women.  Well, actually, only one at a time or one per dream, but overall, lots of women.  Some of them I know, some are strangers I've seen recently, others are imaginary.
