Hello, Nightwanderers… and welcome back to the hush between midnight and morning.
I’m your host, Yarrow, but after hours, when the moon hangs heavy and the shadows stretch long, my friends call me YLDragons. Tonight, we’re gliding through one of the most mysterious realms the human mind has to offer: the dreams that have shaped history itself.
This episode brings together three extraordinary nighttime visions that changed the trajectory of art, science, and leadership:
✨ Abraham Lincoln’s prophetic dream of his own funeral
✨ Mary Shelley’s waking nightmare that gave birth to Frankenstein
✨ August Kekulé’s fire-lit vision of the Ouroboros that unraveled the structure of benzene
Through folklore, neuroscience, and the symbolic language of dreams, we explore how the subconscious becomes an oracle; revealing truths, warnings, and breakthroughs our waking minds struggle to grasp.
If you’ve ever woken with a dream clinging to you like morning fog… if you’ve felt a message lingering in the dark… if your creativity or intuition seems to sharpen after midnight… this episode is for you.
