Dreams and their meanings
People Google their dreams in hopes of understanding their meanings. And in Greek mythology, their interpretation is serious business, as Morpheus is believed to be responsible for precognitive dreams. By falling asleep of the inhabitants of Olympus, he conveyed the most important messages to the people.
The most common dreams
A British website called Mornings, used research from the Google to understand what people in each country were dreaming of. Through this research, they noticed that most people around the world often dream about snakes. And an interesting factor is that Brazil was the champion of dreams with snakes in this survey.
Doing a quick Google search, dreams about snakes can signify hidden fears and concerns, but it could also just be a simple dream about a snake, without any major interpretation. Dreams about snakes are quite common in Brazil and in parts of Asia and Africa.
In Madagascar, on the other hand, it is very common for people to research dreams about old relationships, while Indonesia and Germany look for the meaning of sleeping thinking about pregnancy.
Dreams are part of human life, but it is not only human beings who have the privilege of dreaming.
Animals such as dogs and dolphins also have marked dream activity during sleep.
The oneiric activities that exist when we dream do not have any explanation that justifies them. There may also be changes over time in the interpretation of the subject. Neuroscience has shown that after the pandemic, people started reporting nightmares linked to the disease.
Some believe in the hypothesis that dreams function as "training" for future events in real life.
“Two very coherent theories stand out: the simulation of possible threats and the simulation of social relations”. Says neuroscientist and psychiatrist Natália Bezerra Motta, professor at UFRJ.
