The dream world is a mystery from ancient times, and no one to date has been able to completely research it.

People have endless questions about dreams, meanwhile, let me tell you seven aspects of dreams you might never have heard of.

1. We are still determining why we dream.

Many sleep specialists claim that we dream to help us process multiple sensory inputs throughout the day; however, there is no foolproof explanation.

There have been multiple studies supporting that dreams are like an internal diary, acting as a commentary on your life.

2. You only remember a dream when you awaken during it.

Experts say that we dream multiple times in a night and forget most of them, but are likely to remember the one we experience right before waking up, or accidentally awaken during one.

It’s like if you don’t wake up during a dream, its memory will be completely gone as if you are on a self-erasing tape while you’re asleep.

3. Dreams might be telling your future.
