Hi Suzanne, (I'm a Susanne too!)
I'm not sure. Because I had that dream at such an early age I thought maybe it was a dream of a past life and I was a witch or persecuted for something, being burned alive.They just scared me when I was a kid, but later I remembered them and tryed to figure out what it meant.
I think if you go to sleep tonight and pay attention you will see that you dream in color. All you have to do is tell yourself to pay attention.
I love those vivid dreams now-a-days. They don't scare me anymore.
I love it when I can have a good dream and wake up for awhile and tell myself to go back to them and it happens. It's a bummer when I can't find them again.
