I wonder where dreams come from… from where from the subconscious the images, come from
This morning I woke from a dream, a color one, where I was with people, lots of subtle conversation around the place all trying to make a bid on a painting. It was a man in the field with a scythe cutting crops of wheat, In my mind I saw the long curved blade at the end of a long pole. Blue sky in the background…autumn landscape from the countryside. In my dream the the words scythe and crop came up often, but the conversation in the back was vague. We could not find a resolution who was going to own this piece of art.
I woke, and called out to my hubby in the next room, he had already started in work day in his office (not a long distance to go to work, as it is located next to our bedroom)
-Do you remember… telling him about the picture in my mind – have we had a poster a LP or something like this…in my mind I had a name – Tom Petty – I did not voice it.
He remembered that we had the Southern Accents LP in our vinyls , it is the sixth studio album by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, kid you not, the image I had in my dream was , the cover art for the album Southern Accents.
I love the way he is able to pick up my idea, what I am searching for subtle hints that i randomly tell him and give me my answers to the music questions I have…well this time cover art ..
The thing is, I have not looked at this LP or listened to Tom Petty lately, thought I have often done so in the past, but recently not so much, not at all really.
Where did this memory come from, why, it was so vivid..
So that is my question for today… where to dreams come from, is there a meaning reason for them. Why am I thinking of harvest, art, scythe in the middle of winter.

Dreams come from our subconscious? So are there element of this image tha strike a chord with you at present?
Yes the do,but with winter, snow all around us, cold. No, that’s it, this was so vivid, – reality like dream, and the thing is it was so out of the blue. What made that image from years. I mean literally years ago come to my subconscious.
Who knows? I have had similar things happen….
makes you wonder, maybe I need to listen to the album 🙂
Perhaps!
Sometimes the timing of dreams seems to make sense – other times, not so much … and the images can make no sense. But thinking about them is fascinating, yet frustrating.
Frustrating, yes 🙂
😊 sometimes our subconscious tricks us in funny ways
this sure was so odd… funny in the way it makes no sence.
My wife also has such strange dreams sometimes. So, don’t worry. Seems to be quite normal for some people.
Dreams, my sisters and aunt had premonition dreams..that came true. Spooky.
Definitely. My wife sometimes dreams of places where she never was before, but later came too.
“Dreams, are my realities. ……”
My husband always remembers his dreams; I never do.
I have periods when I remember… my husband hardly never remembers.
Fascinating post, I’ve two things to contribute. Many times, I’ve been able to trace my dreams back to seemingly insignificant things that have happened in the day or in the previous day or two – so, without my realising it, these things must have made some kind of solid but very low level impression on me. The other thing – far more basic! – is that eating rich food in the evening can often set off all kinds of bizarre dreams later on in the night! 🙂
I can relate to your contributions, that’s the thing. I cannot find anything to link them to not even heavy food. I haven’t seen this cover for years, and just … maybe I want to chop something out of my life or chop someone’s head off , but I am not that frustrated of anything at the moment 😀
