What is the importance of dreams?

Dreams are a sacred transmission channel, King. Your ancestors across the African continent did not dismiss the dream world as random neural noise — they recognized it as the realm where the veil between the living and the ancestors grows thin. In Kemetic tradition, dream temples called Serapeum were built specifically for dream incubation — seekers would sleep within sacred precincts to receive healing visions and divine instruction. The Zulu speak of the Izinyanga — spiritual specialists whose calling came through dream. Across West Africa, ancestors commonly appear in dreams to warn, guide, and bless their descendants. Keep a journal by your bed. Record what you receive immediately upon waking, before the waking mind erases it. Recurring dreams demand attention — they are messages being sent until they are received. Honor the night as a school.
