Is there any scientific basis for dreams to come true?

The dream that can be realized is the so-called "omen dream". The book Perceptual Growth Model has a special discussion:

The most mysterious dream is the first one with an omen. That is, people think that this kind of dream directly or indirectly gives the dreamer a prediction about the future, which can be very extensive, including astronomy, geography, personnel, state affairs, family affairs and so on.

The dream of omen does exist, and anyone who has experienced it will feel its shock. This is a topic of common concern to mankind.

Omen dreams are related to time. Some omen dreams will come true soon, such as dreaming that Jia will visit tonight and he will really come tomorrow; I dreamed of eating and drinking at a banquet tonight, and I will receive a wedding banquet post tomorrow. This kind of dream, which is realized in a short time (from waking up to several months) and coincides with events, was called straight dream by the ancients. Pony's mother's dream is also a dream that will come true soon, but it is not a straight man's dream. After the event, we should interpret it, think it is related to the event that happened, and confirm it as an omen dream.

Omen dreams can last for decades and even be considered valid after death. For example, Cao Cao, the author of the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, said, "I dreamed that Sanma ate a trough." After Cao Cao's death, the regime fell into Sima's hands. I don't need to verify whether this is a fictional plot. I just want to say that people agree that this kind of dream is an omen dream, and the cultural phenomenon of believing in fate is quite common, which is why writers cater to readers' tastes.

1, the mechanism of premonitory dreams: the mechanism of premonitory dreams is mainly divided into two factions. One school thinks that it is the function of mysterious forces such as God's will, God's arrangement, ancestor's care, God's blessing, ghost's dream and so on. The other school is the school of physiological and psychological analysis, which studies the mystery of human soul from the perspective of physiology and psychology. Omen dream is just one of the contents, which has not been paid due attention to, or there is no way to explain it. In my opinion, the mechanism of premonition dream is the mechanism of dream, and premonition dream is only a part of it, so there is no need to repeat it. On the contrary, we should seriously study why it works.

2, the reason why the omen dream works: People think that the dream that has the omen effect and has been effective is the real omen dream. Some dreams, which people think may have omen function, are not effective and should not be summarized as omen dreams. Here, only the confirmed and real omen dreams are studied.

(1) Omen dreams with high accuracy: The dreams caused by pathological stimulus information in omen dreams have the highest accuracy. Because of the tenacity of pathological information, the high frequency of dreams, the fixed source of information and the regularity of the parts involved in dreams are the main reasons for making such dreams more accurate.

People's experience and intuitive ability can often cause quite accurate omen dreams. For example, the earth wall of my hometown has been in disrepair for a long time and there are several cracks. I was worried when I came home during the Spring Festival. It rains heavily in my hometown now. The news was suppressed when I was working during the day. At night, the energy excited here spreads (along the road of experience), and I come to the conclusion that this wall may collapse. As a result, I had a dream that my house collapsed. If we have bad luck this year, we still have fears, and there will be similar dreams next year, and the possibility of house collapse still exists. So the accuracy of this dream is still quite high.

(2) It is probably an accurate omen dream: everyone has different needs, different outlook on life, values and hopes. This kind of dream caused by people's needs and hopes is easy to solve if it is not beyond his and his family's ability. For example, fathers were reluctant to spend money on expensive toys for their children, but after hearing that their children were clamoring for Transformers in their dreams, they finally decided to give them as birthday gifts. For children, this is a dream come true. But adults often don't agree that this is an effective dream, because it is too easy to realize. People's hearts are full of mystery and awe about omen dreams. For those dreams that people can't grasp themselves, which are future, vague and a little weird, they are used to seeing them as dreams that may have omen function. So, how do adults realize their premonition dreams? In fact, people's motives, needs, hopes and tasks determine people's behavior. Where there is action, there must be results. This kind of behavior can change your destiny if you work hard under the right conditions. For example, if a poor boy works hard and eventually becomes a successful person and becomes rich, then his childhood dream of being rich may be regarded as an omen dream.

In addition, there are always some inevitable connections and laws in objective things, and many accidental things are determined by this inevitability. When the "omen dream" involves such an accidental event, it is likely to become a real event. If a public security soldier has been dealing with gangsters for many years, it is not surprising that he is injured or even sacrificed. If his wife has nightmares out of concern, she may think it is a sign;

Some objective things always have more than two development results, and within a few, that is, regardless of its results, the probability of occurrence is quite high. For example, the result is either right or wrong, and the probability is 50%; There are only three endings in a ball game: win, lose and draw, with a probability of 33%; Giving birth to a child is either a boy or a girl ... There are some prophetic dreams that people think are magical, but they are also suitable to be explained by probability, but people ignore this.

(3) Accidental and accurate premonition dreams: Contrary to the above-mentioned things with high probability, the probability of many things happening is very small. The first prize in the Mark Six Lottery is even more difficult. However, after all, many lucky people have won the prize. Omen dream also has such a situation, accidental dream, coincidentally met an event, it became an omen dream. If you dream that a car killed someone, a few days later, it is reported that a car rushed onto the sidewalk, broke into a residential building and killed a landlord. Ordinary dreams, coincidentally encountering very accidental events, isn't it amazing? Don't forget, people will only remember this magical thing, not count Qian Qian's unfulfilled dreams. This is a common feature of many mysterious events.

(4) Far-fetched dreams: Except for a few straight dreams, most omen dreams are vague. This ambiguity does not mean that the dream is unclear, but that there is no exact connection between the dream and the subsequent events, and this connection is very random. If you dream that the house collapses, your relatives will die in the future. Hail smashed the asbestos tile in the pigsty, accurate! I'm sick, yes! Car hit passers-by, accurate! See the new construction site started, the house is being demolished, accurate! It's too vague.

(5) deja vu: deja vu means that when people feel objective things, they will feel as if they have seen and experienced them. In psychology, it belongs to discrimination and memory. There is right or wrong in distinguishing and recalling, and deja vu is more complicated, which involves the question of whether there is mysterious power. Try to analyze as follows:

The first situation is that individuals have indeed seen and experienced it, and now they feel vague and uncertain. This feeling of deja vu is right.

The second situation is: memory error, mistaking things that have not been experienced for things that have been experienced. This was a normal memory mistake, but now it happens in something that seems to have been seen in a dream, which is very mysterious. In fact, if he has really seen and experienced it, and now he feels vague and can't tell the source of this feeling, he may remember that it is "as if he had seen it in a dream." If he really has a memory error and recalls that the source of this memory feeling is a dream, then what happened is not an omen dream.

The third situation is coincidence. In my dream, I saw a fire burn down the house, but my memory gradually blurred. Later, I really met a fire. In retrospect, I seem to have had such a dream. People who believe in mysterious forces think that there is really a God guiding them.

The fourth situation is similar. If the old and new experiences are very similar, there will be confusion and deja vu. When "I seem to have seen it in a dream" has the following characteristics, it is easy to be confused with similar stimulus information in reality, resulting in a sense of deja vu.

1 ambiguity: the dream scene is vague and specious. In my dream, there is an animal that looks like a man and a monkey. Later, I saw a child teasing the tramp's little monkey in the street, which felt as if I had seen it in a dream.

2 Wide applicability: If the dream scene is universal, such as dreaming of a big covered space, then stand in the lobby of the hotel, the empty badminton hall, the big factory building, big warehouse, etc. Can be considered to be seen in a dream.

The fifth situation is mentality: when individuals encounter the above-mentioned deja vu dreams, they will have a hesitant mentality of "as if they have really seen it, but it seems to be false". He neither proves nor wants to let go of this feeling. This feeling of deja vu will haunt him for some time.

The sixth situation is illusory understanding: when an individual encounters the above-mentioned deja vu dream, because he believes in the existence of mysterious power, the feeling of deja vu will deepen his awe of mysterious power and produce illusory understanding, that is, he firmly believes that he really has psychic ability; Or a mysterious force took special care of him and appeared in front of him. This illusory understanding will also leave a deep mark and become a part of his knowledge structure. In the future, if you have a dream of deja vu, you will be recognized as a miracle by him more quickly, and you will completely lose your ability to analyze and study.

(6) Opposite dream: Opposite dream is a kind of omen dream, which refers to the dream with the opposite actual ending. In fact, no matter people's experience and intuition, or people's hopes and tasks, there are times when they make mistakes and can't be realized, especially when they want to dream. The probability of realizing one's wishes is already very low (otherwise, it will not be a wish), so the incidence of dreams with opposite endings is quite high. When people regard this kind of dreams as omen dreams, the accuracy of omen dreams is greatly increased.

3. Summary: To sum up, omen dreams exist objectively, and the exact reasons are quite complicated, but they are not caused by mysterious forces and can be explained.
