What about dreams that serve as warnings? I once told my sister in law about a dream I’d had the night before where she, her husband, HER sister in law and I were at my parents’ house and we decided to go to my sister’s house to shoot pool. In the dream it was a ‘dark and stormy night’ and my sis in law was driving with her sis in law beside her in the front seat. My brother complained about her driving and it made her mad. She pulled over and said, OK- YOU drive. She and her sis in law got in the back seat and my brother and I got in front. At a corner, the car slid on the wet pavement and we went over the edge of the embankment. My brother and I were killed- but the backseat passengers survived. More to the dream but those are the salient points. A few months later, on a dark and stormy night, I stopped in at my parents’ house where I found my sis, my brother and her sister in law there. (That woman lived in the Portland area and I had never before seen her without her own husband being present.) The proposal was made that we go shoot pool at my sister’s house. We did not go.
