I started recording my dreams mid-2021 into an Obsidian vault, and now I'm at more than 700. I dream every **1.9 nights** :o and that's not counting all the mornings where I was too time-crunched. 188,000 words total.

Top 3 places:
- Suburbs I grew up at
- MIT
- School/classrooms

Top 3 conceptual motifs:
- Magic (lucid dreaming, telekinesis, etc.)
- Relationships
- Nightmares/sleep paralysis

Creatures (puppies, monsters, snakes, etc.) are the most frequent character encountered

Dense graph of hundreds of nodes. Red nodes represent places that the dreams take place at, such as MIT campus. Yellow nodes represent characters who appear in the dreams, such as friends, family, and creatures. Purple nodes represent recurring conceptual motifs or story archetypes, such as relationships or zombies or hands. The many little blue nodes represent one night's dreams, and edges from blue nodes to the others represent the dream involving some place (red), character (yellow), or concept (purple).
