I dreamt about something I had no previous knowledge of

Basically I dreamt I rode a motorcycle to a restaurant but I never got off. I was walking through the restaurant, straddling the motorcycle and running over peoples toes, apologizing profusely. I sat down to eat and had a weird pain in my gums. I felt and there was something foreign there. So I tugged. A big gash opened up and I pulled and pulled, and finally a hospital bracelet came out of my mouth with one of my coworkers names on it.
Not so weird at first.
I got to work today and told my coworker about my dream and he just stared at me for a second. He told me when he was younger he got into a serious motorcycle accident and had to have several reconstructive surgeries on his face. The part of my mouth where I pulled the hospital bracelet out is where he has a metal plate holding his teeth together.
I had NO knowledge of this happening to him (he’s probably 30 years older than me), and it’s got me all kinds of shook.

I don’t know if there’s some kind of spiritual meaning behind this, but I feel like there might be.

Any insight into my dream would be greatly appreciated!

A few weeks ago I had a dream that was quite vivid and has left quite the impression on me. I dreamt that I saw a floating circle or wheel. The wheel was red or maybe brownish in color with writing all around the outter edges of the circle. The writing appeared to be either sigils or some type of foreign language not familiar to me. In the dream I remember thinking to myself that it must be Enochian. Looking back on the dream when I woke up I found it quite strange I would think that because I have no deep knowledge of Enochian and have only heard about it on a very very basic level. Can anybody offer some insight?

So I had a weird dream last night.

I don’t fully remember it but I think it started from me watching a Russian tv show. And then i think it cut to me sitting in a car with my mum driving. I was holding a Kar98k and was trying to snipe some criminal who was inside a police bus. We tried to take a shortcut and eventually lost the bus.

So we went to a convenience store next to a highway. I enter. I think I bought ice cream or a soda. And then a “foreign” family walks in (I’m saying foreign because I live in Japan and don’t see a lot of non Japanese people. Im not Japanese btw) I think there were the parents, and two daughters. I was talking to one of the daughters and then another family walks in. When I went outside the mum of that family started showing me some weird moves.

Here’s the part that made me confused

So the convenience store is next to a “elevated” highway (I think it was on a slightly elevated bridge) . I looked over to the direction of the highway and there was this LED sign thing (the ones that usually say “fasten your seatbelts” and stuff usually in a yellow/orange colour ) so I looked at the sign and the word “REAL” in all caps and in red LEDs (taking up the whole board) was blinking every second while that same police bus was driving by on the highway.

I woke up really confused and I texted my friends about it and one of them said “Okay I know this is probably going too far but what if you have Extrasensory Perception (ESP)”

I really wanna know what the blinking red letters on the highway board mean. And why they appeared right when that same bus was driving by.

Interpretation please

Last night, I dreamt of visiting a foreign land, and passing by a mosque. A cat was chained there and I tried to pet it, but it came for my life. All along this was happening, a family friend-we are not so acquainted to rn- was with me. She kept giving a mildly evil smile throughout the incident. Later, my mom came in to ask about the situation and when I tried to tell her, the cat turned into a snake.
Can any professional help me by interpreting what it means? I am staying away from home and don't want to ask my mom about it and freak her out, if it means something bad..for instance.

I visited a futuristic Coronavirus "museum" in Wuhan, China.

At some undetermined future point I visited a Coronavirus museum and memorial in Wuhan, China.

It was brand new. A large, spacious building with smooth, tan, granite walls and stainless steel floors. Big like you'd expect a museum to be.

It had the usual tourist attraction feel. There was a whole wall with all the names of people, from all around the world, who died from infection. There were video clips playing on various topics such as the virus history, interviews with doctors, and so on. Display items like medical masks and pictures of empty supermarkets were shown.

Later, there were graphs depicting massive unemployment, the economic fallout, and pictures of turmoil. Videos of riots, and pictures of impoverished people like from the Great Depression.

They had a coffee bar/restaurant where before you eat, there was a selection of different scented hand sanitizers to try out. There was a display explaining the importance of cleaning your hands.

I was with 2 other people. It was a guided tour, and admission cost 22.00. For some reason you didn't have to pay until the tour was over.

We left to do other things and walked outside to a rainy day which is where the dream cut off.

Shit must be taking up real estate in my head. What was also curious was how my brain handled an experience set in a foreign country. The workers and other visitors were obviously Chinese and/or of some Asian variety, which I'm familiar with.

But I don't know one lick of Chinese, so language and money was filled in with English and American dollars. There was Chinese text all around but I couldn't read it. Also, any videos I watched in the museum were in English with Chinese subtitles.

Where in my mind am I storing all this Chinese text, and for what purpose?! Amazing!

Still, I gotta stop reading the Corona subs before sleeping.
