Master Rhyan Hyroc answering a question about dreams from student Lucía

Lucía, before we wander into the strange geography of dreams—those slippery places where logic dissolves and meaning walks around wearing metaphors like oversized coats—let me begin with a story so embarrassingly human that I still cringe when I remember it.

A few years ago, I had a dream that my old high-school rival, Samuel, challenged me to a fencing match. I have never fenced in my life. The dream version of Samuel wore a cape, which already felt rude. He handed me a sword made entirely of churros and said, “Let’s settle this the old way.”

Naturally, my first instinct was to eat my weapon.

I woke up mid-bite—chewing the air like a confused squirrel—and instantly thought:

“Well… clearly the universe is trying to tell me something profound.”

I spent the entire morning wondering if Samuel secretly hated me, if I resented competition, if the churro represented temptation, resilience, hunger, or childhood trauma involving pastry. I did everything except consider the most obvious possibility:

Maybe my subconscious was just on nonsense mode that night.

And Lucía, that’s the problem with dreams:
Some of them are messages.
Some of them are psychological laundry.
Some of them are cosmic postcards.
And some are just your brain juggling churros because it can.

So let’s get into the real teaching, just you and me.


Lucía, when you ask me whether dreams come from higher beings or from the subconscious, I hear the curiosity underneath:

“How do I know when I should listen?”
“How do I know when I’m imagining things?”
“How do I know when something is actually trying to speak to me?”

Humans misunderstand dreams because they want one category, one definition, one function. But dreams are not that polite—they are the most layered form of human perception, capable of carrying messages, memory, emotion, symbolism, and pure chaos all at once.

Let me tell you the truth clearly:

Dreams come in three kinds.
Not one. Not two. Three.

1. Dreams that are psychological digestion.
Your mind sorting through emotional leftovers, stress, memories, fears, wishes, and half-noticed details from the day.

2. Dreams that are symbolic communication.
Your deeper unconscious speaking to you in imagery because it cannot speak in sentences.

3. Dreams that are transmissions—messages from higher beings, ancestors, spirits, or the collective field.

Most people mix these up. They think a message is random and a random dream is sacred. Humans love dramatizing the meaningless and ignoring the profound.

Let me walk you through these layers the way I’d guide someone through a forest: slowly, with attention to the details that matter.


When your dreams are just your subconscious doing housekeeping

Your mind does not sleep when you do. It sorts. It filters. It edits. It sweeps the emotional floor. These dreams feel messy, inconsistent, disjointed, like a blender of leftover thoughts and unprocessed feelings.

You’ll know a dream is subconscious noise when:

– characters change faces mid-conversation
– gravity takes a personal day
– your childhood dentist morphs into a flamingo philosopher
– nothing feels stable
– everything feels surreal but empty

These dreams aren’t messages—they’re maintenance.
Just like your fridge humming at night isn’t a ghost preparing prophecy.


When dreams are symbolic messages from your own deeper mind

The subconscious is poetic. It thinks in metaphors, in colors, in archetypes. It doesn’t send you a text message saying, “Lucía, we need to discuss your trust issues.” That would be too easy.

Instead, it gives you a dream where:

– you’re driving a car with no brakes
– your house has rooms you’ve never seen
– your phone melts when you try to call for help
– you’re searching for something you can’t quite name

These dreams aren’t random—they’re coded.
They carry emotion that lingers after waking.
They feel heavy, meaningful, almost alive.

But these aren’t messages from spirits.
These are messages from you.
The parts of you that notice things your conscious mind avoids.

When people ignore their subconscious, it gets louder.
When they ignore it for too long, it moves into dreams because you can’t escape your own mind in sleep.

Dream symbolism is your psyche saying,
“Sit down. We need to talk.”


When dreams are messages from higher beings

Now we come to the part most people misunderstand—not because it’s complicated, but because they WANT it to be mysterious.

Messages from spirits, ancestors, guides, higher intelligences… they do not feel like dreams.

They feel like encounters.

Here is how you know a dream wasn’t generated internally:

1. The dream is unusually vivid—hyperreal.
Colors too sharp. Sensations too present. You wake up with the feeling you went somewhere.

2. The dream has continuity.
It doesn’t warp or dissolve like subconscious dreams. It holds its shape.

3. The being feels external, not symbolic.
You don’t feel like you’re speaking to a dream character.
You feel like you’re speaking to someone with their own will and personality.

4. The message is clear, coherent, and often simple.
Higher beings do not speak in riddles. They are not poets.
They do not say, “Lucía, the chrysanthemum blooms thrice when the moon forgets itself.”
They say, “Pay attention,” “Not this path,” “You’re ready,” “Stop doubting,” or “Call your sister.”

5. You wake up changed.
Not confused.
Not trying to interpret symbolism.
Changed.
Something feels anchored inside you.

These dreams do not come often.
And they never come to entertain.
Only to communicate something essential.


So what determines the type of dream you get?

Your state.

If you are overwhelmed, the mind sends digestive dreams.
If you are avoiding something, the subconscious sends symbolic dreams.
If you are aligned, open, or at a crossroads, higher intelligences send messages.

The dream world is responsive.
You receive the kind of dream your inner landscape magnetizes.


Why do higher beings use dreams at all?

Because you are finally quiet.

During the day, your mind is like a busy airport:
planes landing, announcements blaring, people running, baggage everywhere.

At night, the tower shuts down.
And the beings who cannot reach you through noise reach you through stillness.

Dreams allow communication without the interference of ego, fear, skepticism, or the filters you use to maintain sanity in daylight.


But let me tell you the uncomfortable truth

Most people miss genuine messages because they are too busy analyzing the wrong dreams.

A random dream about losing your shoes?
Not a sign from the universe.

A dream where a being stands before you, calls you by name, and gives you a sentence that feels like it was engraved into your bones?
That’s not the subconscious.

Humans assume everything symbolic must be holy and everything clear must be mundane.
But higher beings do not need symbolism—they need clarity.

Your subconscious is the dramatic one.
Spirits are the straightforward ones.


Lucía, now let me speak directly to you

Your question carries a tremor behind it, a quiet wondering:

“Have I already received a message?”

Yes.
You have.
More than once.

But not every dream was a message.
Some were emotional dust.
Some were internal guidance.
And some—you already know which ones—did not feel like they came from you at all.

You do not need me to confirm which were which.
Your body already knows.
Your waking intuition already knows.
Your heart already knows.

Messages from higher beings don’t create confusion.
They create recognition.


And now, the explanation of the parable

My ridiculous churro-fencing dream was not a message.
It was subconscious absurdity at its finest.
But the reason I misinterpreted it was the core human mistake:

We want dreams to mean something so badly that we forget meaning must match resonance.

If a dream feels hollow, don’t force a message into it.
If a dream feels alive, don’t dismiss it because it defies logic.

The dream world is not random.
It is layered.

Your job is not to classify every dream.
Your job is to listen when the right ones arrive.

Lucía, dreams are not nonsense.
They are not prophecy.
They are not hallucination.
They are not always messages.

They are mirrors.
They are maps.
They are messengers when needed.
They are psychological storms and spiritual windows and internal signals.

Dreams speak in many voices.
Learn to recognize which is which, and the night will stop confusing you and start guiding you.
