| 887.1 | Sort of a similar experience | JOKUR::PLOETZ | Paula Ploetz | Tue Oct 18 1988 09:34 | 8 | 
|  |     I haven't had a similar dream, but about seven years ago, I was
    in college and had a SO.  One night, when we were sleeping together,
    we had the same dream!  That was amazing.  I know it is true, 
    because He told ME About it, and I knew what I had dreamed.
    
    Interesting, but I don't have a clue why.

    To the Cherokee if two people have the same dream then they are
    connected spiritually. This connection is stronger than brother,
    sister, mother or father in that it is spiritual. The age or sex
    of the people does not matter. Also the content of the dream may
    not have any "meaning" to the people concerned.

| 887.3 | Synchronous dreams? | LACV02::EHRHARDT | Caminante, no hay camino... | Sat Oct 29 1988 00:15 | 19 | 
|  |     Scott Peck in his book, The_Road_less_Traveled, talks about the events
    discussed in the prior notes.  He states that it has been proven in
    laboratories that an awake individual can transmit images to a sleeping
    individual many rooms away.  He states that he has also experienced
    this; he picked up a sequence of images from a house guest that had
    dreamed the same sequence of images two nights previously.  He
    classifies these events as falling under the principles of
    synchronicity.

    Sounds good to me.  Imagine being so close to someone that you're
    tapping into the same dream!  You begin to wonder who's the one
    creating the dream.

    Perhaps the "massacre down the hall" was referring to the
    vice-presidential debates.

    This is obviously a reference to the research done by Kripner, Ulman
    and others at the Miamedes (sp) Dream Resarch Lab in New York. 
    There methods and results may be found in the excellent, quite
    readable book: Dream Telepathy.  The critics have never adequately
    dealt with these experiments -- virtually all the criticisms have
    been based on statements which are easily refuted in terms of the
    records -- most of them quite obviously so from the easily available
    book mentioned above.
    
    The main weakness of these results is that few attempts have been
    made to directly, independently replicate them, and all have been
    on a much smaller scale with predictably more ambiguous outcomes.
    
    Chuck Honortons Ganzfeld experiments -- which use people in a
    relaxed, altered state of consciousness with vivid imagery rather
    than dreaming people -- is the most active, successful modern
    continuation of that research.
