Dreaming

A dreamer dreaming.


Dreaming is the Talent of having dreams that foretell possible future events. A person with this talent does so by having and then interpreting true dreams. Aes Sedai belive that it is linked to foretelling.[1] This Talent is however unconnected to the One Power, so they are likely mistaken. Unlike Foretelling, Dreaming does not tell of what will be, only of what might be,[2] but any dreams about a ta'veren are almost always significant, and the more strongly ta'veren, the more likely.[3] According to the Wise Ones, dream interpretation was not straightforward; that dreams told only one possible future, but was usually the most likely future. Dreams were often conveyed in images, allegories, or puns; consequently, the Dreamer needs training in interpreting their dreams.

During Egwene al'Vere's training among the Aiel Wise Ones she is told that a dreamer must decipher and know the truth of their own dreams; no one else can teach or guide it.
