I personally believe that dreams are symbolic. I believe they are special and really have meanings. Some people don't believe in me and say that they're just psychological, but I don't think so. They say it uses your memory, gets the things that your mind can comprehend and uses them as your symbols. Dreaming of something or someone you have never seen is really weird, since it's not even in your memory - yet. So I suppose it strongly suggests that dreams are not just made up by our "imaginative" mind. They're given for a special purpose.

i do also believe that those rare dreams are some signs that we must consider, dreaming something you never seen of is rare

For many years I have heard about the symbolisms in dreams. Since each of us is different I think it is more likely that the feelings related to the dream are of much more importance. If you dream of a spider and feel fear that spider means a different thing than if you dream of a spider and are thrilled to have discovered a new spider. A person dreaming of falling through the air is feeling much different than the person dreaming of flying through the air. What do you think?

in my country this signs and symbols are quite paranormal or some would bring luck or misfortune, like dreaming of your teeth falling down from your jaw they say it means one of relatives of friends would die, so we took it as a warning to prevent whats about to happen
but still a mystery right??

After much though, research, and personal experimentation... I have come to the conclusion that dreams are perfectly meaningless and made up simply of the imagination acting out on its own. I'm not really an expert though, just someone who's always been interested in dreams. I think dreams are pretty darn cool, even if they don't mean anything.
As for things you haven't seen, experienced, or people you haven't met appearing in your dreams, well that's just the imagination at works. It tends to invent things.

I'm rather fascinated by the world of dreams, but there are times where I think that we see things within them that are rather created by their our own mines. Are they signs or just crazed random things created by an unconscious mind? Yes, kind of, both would be rather plausible explanations when you really think about it. Sometimes things do not make sense.
And other times to make too much sense. Or what we are making sense out of is different than what our mind is trying to tell us. There are just many times where the dark corners of my mind are going to concoct a lot of visions right into the back of our mind. And we really just tend to rack our minds, trying to figure out if any signs are. But are there truly signs? Or just something that we hope to find.

Yes and no. Although I do believe that sometimes information contained in dreams can help you in your "awake" life, I do believe that sometimes dreams are just dreams.
Sometimes if there is a problem that is really weighing on your mind and you are trying to figure out a solution, a solution can actually appear to you in a dream, and upon waking up, you can use the information that you were shown in the dream to solve the problem that you have. I write songs. Sometimes my best songs come to me in a dream, I get up and write them down on paper. My son composes music, sometimes he dreams of a song, gets up and composes it.
I have seen people during the day, that just the night before I had dreamed about. It may have been a person that I had not seen in months or even years. I have seen people do certain things in my dreams and then the next day I see it in real life. It is very rare, but it has happened to me. For instance, in a dream, I saw this guy I knew, he was bouncing a basketball. In real life, I had never known him to be interested in basketball...interested in making money, and riding motorcycles,yes, into basketball, no. Well, the very next day, I saw him walking down the street on his way into a convenience store, bouncing a basketball. I thought to myself, "Whoa, I just dreamed that last night." Like I said, rare, but it does happen.
Or, let's say for instance that you have the heater on way too high in your house or apartment. You might dream of a fire because your physical body is hot due to the temperature of the room that you are sleeping in. The dream about the fire wakes you up and when you awake you find your bedroom is too hot. You get up, turn off the heater, open a window.
A common type of sign in a dream is when you know you have something that needs to get done, but you are procrastinating. You may have an assignment due at work, but you are not working on it as diligently as you should be. During the night you may dream of getting fired. Or, you may be putting off cleaning your apartment, then that night you dream about a group of friends showing up unexpectedly at your front door with you being totally unprepared to let them in.
On the other hand, a dream can be just a dream. The human brain is a very active place, it never sleeps. You are always thinking, and since we take in SO much information on any given day, our minds have lots of information stored in them and therefore can create ALL types of dreams that may or may NOT have anything to do with us personally.
