Usually a condition that is very foggy and cold. This is generally because you have to hold yourself to get warm, which is kind of the same thing that a person who was nervous or worried would do.

Tidal waves in dreams?

You could want to go surfing, or be very thirsty, or perhaps need to go to the bathroom. Water in dreams is said to represent emotion. That could mean a few things, such as change in your life is coming, or that tidal waves can be like our emotions welling up and getting a little out of control. Tidal waves often appear in our dreams when are under a lot of pressure or when significant change is occurring. They may be thought of as an indication that we feel a little overwhelmed, that maybe we fear we won't be able to cope or adjust with what we see in our own future. Or, you could have recently been thinking about large waves, or the ocean, or floods; anything, really. Dreaming is widely considered by the scientific community and the non-superstitious to be a form of debriefing: our mind's way of sorting through all the information - and there is an awful lot of it, even when you think you've had a boring day - which has been fed into the brain through recent waking, and sleeping, activity and experience. So your tidal waves could have nothing at all to do with water in any form; they might be your brain's way of interpreting input data, fitting that data into previous experience and sorting it into some logical sequence. It's tempting to view all kinds of phenomena as possible signs and omens, and when one feels a sign indicates, say, good luck or some other positive event, this is harmless or even good, since it might induce feelings of optimism and thereby improve your mood and capabilities. Many times we think back to signs, omens or premonitions and relate them to current events; it's easy to imagine there's a link, but we tend to forget all the very many times we experience premonitions or signs with no follow-up events at all. Superstition becomes harmful when we believe, or are told, that something fortells bad things happening. Even the most down-to-earth person can feel uneasy about this kind of perceived warning, which can lead to feelings of insecurity, nervousness and worry - negative feelings which aren't especially good for us at any time but are pretty pointless when these feelings have no rational basis whatsoever. The uneasy feeling we've left the oven on might lead us to very sensibly go and check, and turn it off if necessary: it's a rational, useful feeling. The uneasy feeling we have, because of some omen, that we might one day leave the oven on and have the house burn down is not a useful feeling at all. When we worry, we're more likely to make mistakes, miss doing things we might routinely do without thinking...like switching the oven off. Enjoy your dreams, but don't read too much into them.

Why is Pluto different from the other planets?

Since it was discovered in 1930 by Clyde Tombaugh, many astronomers have felt uneasy about Pluto being called a "planet" for three reasons: (a) Pluto, with a diameter of 2275 km, is very much smaller than any of the other planets of the Solar System; in fact, it is only about two-thirds the size of our Moon. (b) Its highly elongated orbit is greatly tilted at a sharp angle to the orbital planeof the other planets; in other words, all the other planets revolve around the Sun at almost the same plane. (c) Furthermore, it is the only planet with an orbit that intrudes to the orbit of another planet (that of Neptune).The other outer planets are very large and gaseous. Pluto is very small, and doesn't have as much gas.
