Why do I keep dreaming about being a royal? (hexbear.net)

I posted a few weeks ago about how I had a dream that I was a member of the Swedish royal family. In the dream the Skarsgards were the royal family and I was married to one of the sons. Last night I dreamt that I was a member of the British royal family, married to Prince Harry. I can't really remember what happened other than all the royals and I were in a house together watching TV and eating in separate rooms. At one point the King came to my door to speak to me.

Why do I keep dreaming about this? I don't even want to be royal, or married. What's extra annoying is that I used to have a lot of really vivid interesting dreams, but thanks to meds and health issues I have very poor sleep now and almost never dream any more. But when I do, it's this. I wonder if these dreams are trying to tell me something but I don't know what.

I graduated a few years ago and I constantly dream that I’m somehow back in school. In the dream, I question it and swear that I graduated and got a job at one point, but then accept that I wouldn’t be back on campus if I wasn’t meant to be.

    i finished grad school several years ago, but occasionally have a dream that it's midway through a semester and i entirely forgot about a critical class i registered for and have to look it up/find it on some unfamiliar part of campus as im already late for it again + unprepared for a project/exam.

    this never even came close to happening to me. straight As, crushed my defense, etc.

    Lmao its somewhat comforting to know even people who excelled at school have these dreams too

    My particular flavour is "I just woke up for my final exam at 9am... and it's already noon and I slept way thru it, oh no!"
