“The dreamer’s future, more than his or her past, is the organizing principle of many dreams, and even the glimpses of the past that return to us in dreams may be giving us tactical advice on how to cope with new developments that are just emerging. Shamans, of course, would go further. They would say that precognitive dreams are memories of the future that we can explore in dreams because when we are outside our bodies, we are not bound by space-time.” - R.M., Conscious Dreaming.
