The ancient Greeks believed, Morpheus, the god of dreams
would send people prophecies and warnings in their dreams if they slept in his
temple.
Christians believe God can speak to them through dreams
while Muslims believe revelation can only come through dream interpretation.
A friend of mine pointed out to me that “The Aztecs were
nomads settled in what is now Mexico City (Pyramids right outside) because of a
Dream.” ~from our lovely host, M.C.V.

How many other events in history have occurred because
someone had a dream?

In my book, Eternal Curse: Giovanni’s Angel, dreams are very
important. They fuel the action and motivate the characters to seek truth and
understanding, but sometimes they just unsettle them.
When reading this book, you’ll understand why my main
character doesn’t worry about missing sleep. For in sleep, he finds bad dreams,
dream that are so real, they could also be memories- memories of a time long
gone by and recorded in history.
How have dreams affected your history? Do you dream of
reality or do you fantasize the past and glamorize your hopes for the future?
