Chess Dreams

The chess dreams I've had have been rather scarce, but they always seem to involve some vague combination sitting there in front of me, & in my dream it seems just like at chess club, where there are pieces being moved around to discover the correct sequence, then it sets back up from the starting position and begins another line of analysis. Not the most imaginative dreams to be sure, but I can't help feeling like I'm letting my brain solve it's own problems while sleeping. My instinct tells me that when these dreams occur, some aspect of what they've done for me will 'be there' in my subconscious when I'm actually playing. Which sounds great, right?

Right! That is exactly how I felt when I solved some math problems that were giving me trouble! Awesome feeling....... now if only I could reach that level in my dreams regarding chess. I have so much to learn about chess that it may have to happen in my next life. lol haha

Last night while I slept I was giving perpetual check....to a pawn....you know how some dreams make no sense?

I would think all dreams don't make sense, even the ones you think do make sense.

Do dreams of mating count? Seriously, not only did I start having chess dreams when I was teaching myself to play blindfold, I had virtual dreams where I could influence the direction of the dream when I realized I was still sleeping. A person can use simple self-hypnotic suggestion just before drifting off to program what he wants to dream about.
If I was dreaming chess moves correctly, then I would play all my games asleep because I don't seem to get them right while awake.
