I was attacked demonically on dreams, and it lasted for months caused extreme PTSD.
My question for you is:
What do you think about lucid dreaming/induced lucid dreaming?
Is dreaming a different realm?
How can we use our dreams as a tool to reclaim our lives?
Much love.
I posted this because I thought the topic was both interesting and relevant but I am no expert.
Pastor Vlad Savchuk compiled the video and has many other videos on similar topics on his Youtube page – https://www.youtube.com/@vladhungrygen/community
Personally, I think the messages in dreams which are pertinent to the dreamer and can be used to reclaim one’s life by making needed changes if they are recognized and discerned properly. I don’t think dreams are other realities although some would argue that they are glimpses into them. Others believe dreams are bridges to other dimensions that can be visited temporarily. Lucid dreaming is a whole different ballpark. If a person is engaging in lucid dreaming, they should absolutely journal.
