Last night I was meditating with my eyes closed and thinking about the blessings of the Lord.I found myself in place X travelling along a road. After a while the depth and perspective (art term) of looking ahead at the distance made the road look like a tunnel; but in reality it was still a road. I found myself at placeY which was like a cliff jutting over the sea(promontory?) and the water was calm with different hues of blue.Three names- Edith, Pearl and Sharon- were given.I saw no houses but was told the locale was quaint.I was involved in a debate as to whether locale X was on a higher elevation than locale Z.Either Z or X is the capital.I have to research it. I saw surf or clear water with foam on the road but it was not deep- just like a splash and the sea rolling in..Locale X and Z really exist but I have never visited that area.Was I imagining all of this or is God saying something to me?How would I know for sure? I pray daily- two or more times,meditate and read my Bible..

it is this simple, if the message you received instructs you to be kinder and more loving to every person and animal that you meet it comes from god, if not.... it is only a dream.
as for interpreting, whether a dream or a vision it will be made clear when the time is right, study pray and meditate, but remember that sometimes a dream is just a dream, it is in the real world that we are meant to make a difference.

There is no difference. Be careful of your brain. It loves sensory hijinx. The brain craves sensory input at all times. Decrease the amount of sensory input it needs (as with your meditation), and it will make up the difference on it's own. Call it a hallucination if you want. I call it dreams. If the area of the brain that is responsible for spiritual experience is stimulated while this dream occurs, some call it a vision.

In a vision you breathing is not detectable.
Always compare your thoughts with the bible.

Dream's happen in your Soul (second mind).
Vision's happen in you (a Spiritman---first mind).
It's tricky.
There have been People allowed to visit HEAVEN, and they didn't know if they (Spiritmen) were in their Body's (Physical, Flesh) or not.
It's tricky. Ask the FATHER in JESUS's Name to show you what it meant, or if it was even from HIM.

A vision is while you are awake, and a dream is when you sleep.
