This is a fantastic interview. I once had a dream about a tornado and a few months later it hit exactly in the path I saw!
Thank you.

I have very strange dreams. Nothing ever comes true. One from when i was a little girl, was my Grama was in a car accident. I couldnt visually see it in my dream. It was out to my left, it was a deep inner knowing. All I could see was strangers legs waking on a cross walk in the rain as if there wasnt a tragedy that just occurred. I was little and had my umbrella and my tears couldnt stop. When I woke up my pillow was soaking wet. She died MANY years later of breast cancer. Nothing to do with an accident.
What's stranger, I get many "day" dreams. I see potentials, and they never come true. The last weird thing, I often meet people in my dreams 1st, and decades later I might pass them by and get these overwhelming feelings like I just passed through a cloud. They never see me, but I always remember their eyes. Like I have known them.
I feel like I gotta a whole lotta karma to clear lol 😂😂😂

Asking for a friend - Can taking FECO (full extract Cannabis oil) at night to help sleep be the reason my friend can’t remember dreams? This person used to have very vivid dreams before that.
