Dreamscape and the Multiverse

Some thoughts occur when least expected and prove too insistent thereafter to ignore, just as theoretical physicists will arrive at conclusions in their formula equations suggesting the existence of things that simply won't go away until they spontaneously erupt into existence. Once I'd written all the text here, I found the image to the left, and discovered that Stephen Hawking has written a book on it, pulling together all the major quantum theorists under one cover. Neat.

While dreamscape may not appear to be a subject readily aligned with physics, there are commonalities in the nature of our dreams which suggest a plausible theory. When we move into dreamscape, we move into a high-energy event. Whatever the nature of that event, whether it's communicative or observational, there is an impact which can sometimes be so forceful as to jolt us back into the waking state. Some say that the astral body moves out of the physical body when we sleep, and that this 'jolt' effect is a sudden realignment of the two forms. Whether we can assume existence of an astral body or not, there is something going on in dreamscape which begs interesting questions.

Sometimes the characters in our dreams are people we know, the identity of whom is familiar to us, but they don't bear any resemblance to the person we relate to in this reality. And sometimes we are friendly with someone in dreamscape who's unknown to us here. While these factors are added to environmental familiarity (the fabric of buildings, scenery and society having much in common with what we know to exist when we are awake) and our ability to relate to the surroundings we find ourselves in, there is a thread of surrealism which creates the essence of what we know dreams to be. This thread of surrealism lends to the thought that our brains have difficulty assimilating the information of what is happening when we're 'out there' and bringing back a sensible interpretation to the conscious mind. While we all experience these anomalies, and have great fun trying to read meanings into them, I'm thinking the answer may be simpler than the dream-catchers might like to think it is.

The Multiverse stretches with potential infinity across all possible options of state in which we exist. Without going into detail here about how that infinite series of options might affect the way we live in conscious mode, it certainly seems to lend itself to the possibility that we have access to that multiple-choice framework when we are asleep, when the mind is free to wander where it will beyond the constraints of the collapsed wave packet. That mind might well find itself slipping into the territory of another version of Me when I'm asleep, even for just a few moments, a version in which the energy required to act out the events of the moment is such that it grabs any available input from extraordinary sources - the energy of my consciousness when I'm sleeping being one of those extraordinary sources. This could explain the rise in energy we automatically receive when we face critical circumstances; the hormone surge biologically activated may, in order to fuel its activity, be accessing energy available from sleeping versions of ourselves across the multiversal matrix.

The fact that I'm posting this on Quantumology's .Net site indicates that, to my mind, the subject falls within the quantum mechanical camp rather than the esoteric field. The Multiverse and its implications regarding our daily existence are serious, and since the Multiverse concept is now universally accepted in scientific circles (albeit reluctantly in some quarters) I believe that dreamscape opens us to a greater understanding of how we interact with it, on more than a theoretical level.

​There's an option here to put some research into this, with all that has recently been discovered in neuroscience; proving our connections with other versions of ourselves could open doors to a great deal of empowerment, and enable many people to explore ways out of night terrors and other unwanted coils of dreamscape mechanics they might wish to avoid in the future. While we can control our dreams even less (arguably) than we can control the reality of our lives, we know that our perspective creates the foundation for the way we live, and that has to count for something substantial if we are spending a third of our lives trawling through the multiversal wide-wide-web.
