Over my lifetime I have had what I consider to be 'Dream Visits' from past loved ones or people that have been close to me.
These dreams are very different from my normal dreams. They have a very real feeling to them, I have felt touch and even experienced smells.
I've come to believe that I am in the Astral Plane when these dreams occur. At least that is the best I can explain it. I'm not as knowledgeable in the terms as I'd like to be but I know what I have experienced.
I talked about my earliest dream like this, in a post called 'Recurring Dreams'. That link will be provided further below, along with a couple of others. I will retell that particular dream here though because it pertains to both posts.
I did not tell my mother about these dreams for awhile but when I did she was in shock. I had never been told, but my mom did have a baby girl five years before me. The baby was premature and only lived for about twenty-four hours. The name I got in the dream was the same one my parents named that baby. That little girl was born with red hair. Mom showed me the only photo she had of the baby and the hair color matched as well.
I cannot tell you when the dream stopped I just know that they eventually did. None of my other dream visits were recurring.
My Great Aunt and I were very close. I always loved talking to her and we exchanged letters when I moved away. At some point we started to exchange coupons. There was one particular coupon for Oil of Olay that we sent back and forth as a personal joke. My job would not let me off for her services when she passed away.
I wish I could have confirmed that the coupon was really still in the napkin holder but it didn't take my uncle long to get rid of her house and belongings after she passed.
I have more to share but I don't want this post to be five miles long. I will make a Part 2 to this post for tomorrow.

Wow! This is some sort of coincidence. I am in the middle of writing a post about the exact same topic!
I too over the last ten years have had a series of eerie dreams that seem real and seem like im seeing some event thats somehow important through someone else's eyes. Like our two minds are connected somehow.
Very interesting post!
That is awesome. I do believe that certain people come into your life for a reason. If nothing else maybe we have met to validate some of what we have experienced. Most people just look at me like I have gone of the deep end. lol
Thanks for sharing Deb. I’ve had similar experiences. I believe our dreams hold messages that are sometimes hard to decipher but yours were very clear.
I've had ones that were hard to decipher too.
