Dreams vs. Spirit Messages: How to Tell the Difference

Hello, beautiful souls! Today, we’re diving into a question I get asked all the time: “Was that just a dream, or was it a message from spirit?” Ah, the eternal mystery of the 3 a.m. wake-up call, complete with vivid images, cryptic symbols, and sometimes, oddly specific dreams about llamas. (Spirit, is that you? Or did I just eat too much cheese?)

Why It’s Confusing

Dreams and spirit messages often mingle in the same sleep space. Your subconscious is wide open, your logical mind is off-duty, and spirit sees it as the perfect time to slide into your DMs… dream messages, that is.

Key Differences Between Dreams and Spirit Messages

1. The Vibe Check:

   • Regular Dream: Feels fragmented, random, or downright weird. (Like that time you dreamt of riding a giant hamster through a shopping mall.)

   • Spirit Message: Feels real, vivid, and emotionally charged. You wake up with a lingering sense of importance, like, “That wasn’t just a dream.”

2. Emotional Impact: Spirit messages leave a deep emotional mark. You might wake up crying, comforted, or feeling like you had an actual conversation. Regular dreams? They fade faster than your willpower in front of a biscuit tin.

3. Clarity vs. Chaos: Dreams can be chaotic, jumping from scene to scene like a badly edited film. Spirit messages tend to be focused, with clear settings, people, or repeated symbols.

4. Recurring Themes: If you keep having the same dream or message repeatedly, that’s spirit knocking on your door. (Not literally. That would be terrifying.)

Signs You’ve Had a Spirit Message

• Vivid Colours and Details: Like your brain switched to HD.

• Conversations with Deceased Loved Ones: And they feel real, not dream-like.

• A Sense of “Knowing”: You wake up with clarity, insights, or even answers to questions you’ve been asking.

• Physical Sensations: Feeling a touch, warmth, or even smelling a familiar scent.

How to Strengthen Your Dream-Message Connection

1. Keep a Dream Journal: Write down everything, even the weird bits. Patterns will emerge over time.

2. Set an Intention Before Sleep: A simple, “Spirit, if you have a message for me, please make it clear and easy to remember,” works wonders.

3. Reflect, Don’t Overthink: Trust your gut. If it feels like a message, it probably is.

4. Ask for Confirmation: Spirit loves validation. Ask for signs in your waking life to confirm what you received.

When in Doubt, Trust Yourself

You don’t need a dream dictionary to decode spirit messages. Your intuition is the best guide. If a dream lingers, stirs your emotions, or feels different from the usual brain jumble, trust that spirit might be saying, “Hey, you! Yes, you. We’re here.”

Final Thoughts (Because I Love a Mic Drop Moment)

Not every dream is a spirit message, and not every spirit message comes through like a Hollywood production. Sometimes it’s subtle. Sometimes it’s a giant metaphysical billboard. Either way, spirit will find the right way to reach you—yes, even if it involves llamas.
