dream or visitation?

If you have ever had a loved one in spirit visit you in a dream, you may wonder if it was just a dream or if it was a true visitation. When we just dream about our loved ones, sometimes it can be just our mind working out a situation or trying to cope with unresolved feelings. These dreams may have unusual circumstances or portray our loved ones in a negative light, perhaps showing sadness or anxiety. But remember, there are no negative feelings on the other side, so I don’t believe they would come to you in a dream visitation expressing anything negative. Many times when you wake up from just a dream, you forget it right away or can only recall bits and pieces of the details. A true dream visitation is quite different. When our loved ones visit us while we sleep, they are taking advantage of the opportunity to slip into our hypnogogic state and meet us somewhere, on the astral plane perhaps, to spend some time with us or to give us a message. When we have a true dream visit, it feels so incredibly clear and real that we have just spent some time with our loved one and the details of the visit stay with us long after we awaken. If you wake up knowing in your heart that you just had a visit in your sleep, it will give you a feeling, a knowing that this was real. Write it down immediately with the date and the details. Keep a dream visit journal by your bed and ask your loved ones to please let you remember the visits you are sharing at night. Intention and patience can make it happen. Sweet dreams!
