About This Quiz

Dreams can be many things — exciting, scary, funny, weird. They can take you on great adventures, help you solve problems, and sometimes predict the future. Even if you don't remember your dreams, studies prove that you're still having them. What's more, the kinds of dreams you have can tell you a lot about your personality. 

​To this day, the question of why we dream remains unanswered by science. Some researchers suspect that dreams help us work out problems and deal with emotions, while others think they provide important clues about our unconscious desires and feelings. You may even have your own beliefs about the purpose of dreaming — it's something you do every day, after all. 

Are your dreams wild and crazy? Simple and straightforward? Somewhere in between? Do you have dreams that you think may be trying to tell you something, or ones that are eerily close to real life? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you need to take this quiz. It will tell you what type of dreamer you are — prophetic, healing, lucid or fantasy — so you can better understand what your dreams mean and how they may be trying to help you.
