The Egyptian Dream Book Reveals Ancient Predictions Of The Future
Ellen Lloyd - AncientPages.com - The Egyptian dream is, alongside the Babylonian dream, one of the most widespread ways of interpreting dreams. The belief that dreams can foretell the future has its roots in the distant past. Ancient people believed in precognitive dreams.
These dreams predicted the future through a sixth sense – a way of accessing future information unrelated to any existing knowledge acquired through normal means.
Like many people today, ancient Egyptians believed that certain signs or events seen in dreams revealed unpredictable information about the future.
Dreams played a powerful role in the past.
Thousands of years ago, ancient Egyptians used the messages in their dreams to cure illnesses, make important State decisions, and even decide where to build a temple or when to wage a battle.
Dreams were considered to be divine predictions of the future. They were messages from the gods that could foretell impending disasters or, conversely, of good fortune; therefore, understanding the significance of one's dreams was an important part of the culture.
