Tony and Graeme - Have you ever had a dream where a passed loved one or animal visits you? You can fully interact with them and when you wake up, you can remember the moment clearly?

Tony had one of those about his father last night, and it really had him rattled this am.

We did some digging and here's what we found.

Common Characteristics of Visitation Dreams
Extreme Realism: The dreams feel exceptionally lifelike and genuine, with a clear sense of purpose from the deceased individual.

Purposeful Interaction: The deceased loved one often appears with a specific goal, such as offering advice, a warning, or a message of reassurance.

"Felt Sense" of Presence: Dreamers often report a strong "felt sense" that the deceased person is truly them and not just a memory or an imagined figure.

Emotional Impact: These dreams evoke strong emotions like profound love, peace, or comfort, often leaving the dreamer feeling as if the visitation was a real experience.

Healthy Appearance: The deceased person may appear younger, healthier, and more radiant than when they were alive, free from pain or sickness.

Focus on the Moment: The dream structure often lacks a complex plot, centering on the interaction with the deceased.

Why They Matter
Coping and Resolution: Visitation dreams can provide a significant sense of relief, guidance, and help with the resolution of the grieving process.

Spiritual Interpretation: Many people interpret these dreams as a direct sign or a form of communication from their loved ones in the afterlife.

Moments of Transition: They are more likely to occur during periods of grief or significant life changes, suggesting a potential connection to our subconscious processing of these events.

How to Understand Your Dream
Acknowledge the Feeling: The most important aspect is the emotional impact and the genuine feeling of connection you experience.

Consider Cultural Beliefs: Different cultural and spiritual beliefs can influence how you perceive and interpret such experiences.

Reflect on Your Grief: Dreams can sometimes serve as "night-time therapy," allowing you to process feelings that you may be unable to express during the day.

How often have "mammoth" bands like Van Halen had to rebound from losing their focal point frontman? The Doobies did it and thrived, same with Genesis. But there never was a frontman quite like David Lee Roth. Was there anyone who could fill his shoes ... without trying to fill his shoes?? This weekend, we'll find out as we listen to "5150" on The Vinyl Vault. Saturday at 6PM in Alberta and BC, Saturday at 9PM on the Q in the Maritimes, and Sunday at 11PM on K-Rock in Newfoundland. And let JC know your thoughts on the album, right here.

Tom Petty called it a solo album. The Heartbreakers played on the sessions. May have been a clever way of having the band on board - without the need for democracy! Either way, even Tom told them it was the best record they ever made. What do you think? JC Douglas plays "Wildflowers" on the Vinyl Vault, our weekly national listening party. Tonight (Saturday) at 6PM. And let JC know your thoughts about the record, right here.
