I take it you've never had a ritualistic lucid dream.
Alternatively, we might have had experiences similar to what you're describing, but we interpreted them differently. For example, I would simply call it a dream, and I would attach no more meaning to it than I do to any other flight of fancy- with the understanding that sometimes good ideas can arise from flights of fancy. But these ideas, once obtained from whatever source, must make it through a much more discerning process than uncritical acceptance if they are to be useful.
I don't interpret imagery with words. It's a case of, if I see it happen, I believe it.
If I asked what's going to happen when I die, and then I'm presented with a dream-state that shows me a chair in some Hostel (referring to the horror movie) room I'd take it for what it is, was, and felt like, alone, without attached word.
The hypocrisy in this thread.
