The third, even lower level- the dreaming man has the subconscious fear that he suffers from some infection and associates that with fire in his sleep.
The fourth, lowest level- the person is worried about impending changes which income is unpredictable.
Science revealed a way of controlling human dreams. But first here are some facts that you might find interesting.
64% of the tested dreams are connected with negative experience, fears, of misgivings, whereas only 18% are connected with pleasant feelings and emotions, the rest are neutral. Most dreams last between 5 and 20 minutes. The dreams in colors are most dominant. In ancient Rome there was a tradition that the dreams of the members of the Senate were discussed in public. German scientists conducted an experiment that led them to the conclusion that man is capable of observing and consciously controlling his dreams. Twenty seven volunteers of both sexes took part in the experiment. During the test certain fields of the frontal and the peripheral lobe were stimulated by slight electric impulses. This happens three minutes after the continuous so called paradox dream in the interval of which dreams appear, and the electric brain activity is very similar to that when waking up. At this stage the dreaming person does not realize that what is happening is just a dream, not a reality. During the conscious dreams, however, the person realizes that he is dreaming and is capable of establishing control over his dreams.
The scientists used different frequency starting with a zero impulse, and reaching 100 Hz, discovering that between 25 Hz and 40 Hz the volunteers are capable of having impact on their dreams. These researches will be very useful in the treatment of schizophrenia, obsessively compulsive disorders and post traumatic stress. The subconscious mind contains data about the physical and psychological condition of the individual. It chooses symbols in the dreams to give a warning to the conscious mind about the future events. According to that it is searching for a way to provide the most favorable alternative for a successful outcome.
In the middle of the 20th century the American psychologist Calvin Hall proved that the emotional conflicts of the heart are the main scriptwriter of our dreams. Having analyzed over 10 000 dreams he concluded that crucial events in the human history such as The World War II, elections, national epic sports matches, etc. have no reflection in our dreams.
