What does it mean to be followed by a raven in your dreams repeatly?
Like crows, ravens are carrion birds and scavangers, so they tend to be associated with death in Western Culture. In other cultures, including the Native American mythologies, ravens are regarded as messengers. So the actual meaning of these dreams depends on the dreamer and his/her own culture and traditions. Very generally, the dreams might suggest that there is refuse or left-over trash in the dreamers life that needs to be "scavanged" or cleared away.

What does it mean when you have reoccuring dreams about your brother stabbing you with a knife?
This dream could have different meanings depending on what sort of relationship you have with your brother; if you are close friends and care a lot about each other or whether you have had disagreements and barely speak to each other. One possibility is that your brother in the dream is a symbolic representation of yourself, and his being stabbed expresses your own pain or anxiety about something terrible that might happen in the future. In this case, the dream will continue to recur until you identify the emotional pain in yourself or potential danger and resolve it in real life.
> On the other hand, the dream might represent your own hurtful behavior toward your brother. It could be your mind's way of showing you how your words or behavior have hurt your brother. In this case, you need to make things right with your brother by apologizing or mending your relationship before the dream will stop repeating.

Why would a demon enter your dream?
This is only my opinion, but....
Most likely, you've just been thinking/worrying/talking about demons and it's gotten in your head. If you spend long enough thinking about orange soda, you'll probably see some orange soda in your dreams as well! If you're having demonic dreams, there's most likely nothing to fear at all. Dreams can be totally random, or can reflect on the things we think about during the day, and I personally believe it's most likely nothing serious.
What does it mean if you have a dream about car crash?
Dreams speak in symbols and metaphors. So it is very unlikely that a dream about a car crash actually means that there will be a crash or death in real life. The dreamer's subconscious mind is probably saying that the dreamer feels "out of control" in some important area of life, and that the dreamer is headed for a "crash" in the sense of serious consequences. The death in the dream suggests that one consequence of being out of control could be the end of something important such as a job or close relationship.
The dream suggests that at some level the dreamer is having difficulty accepting the reality of the person's death. The effect of the dream is to tell one's own self that the person is dead. This is a healthy, natural dream, and represents the early stages of healing grief.
What does it mean if you keep on dreaming about earrings?
This dream could have a number of interpretations. "Earrings" might be a play on words, indicating a ringing in the ears (tinnitus) or the constant "ringing" of a telephone or other sound. Alternatively, the earrings could symbolize someone or something that keeps "hanging around." Yet another possibility is that the earrings in the dream represent something specific to the dreamer, such as a family heirloom or a precious gift. In that case, the earrings would symbolize the person associated with the gift or heirloom.

What happens when someone else has the same dream as you?
Chances are, yes! There are millions of people in the world which means that people probably have the same dreams sometimes.
another response:
Different people may have similar dreams. Certain themes are very common in dreams, such as finding yourself naked in a public place, or having the sensation of falling. But as far as intentionally trying to have the same dream as someone else? That probably isn't any more possible than thinking the same thoughts as someone else. Your dreams are products of your subconscious and unconscious mind, and so your dreams are as unique as you are.
What does it mean when you dream your giving birth and someone close to you dies?
absolutely nothing its a dream!
A different response:
The dream could have a number of different meanings depending on the setting, the accompanying emotions, and who the "someone" is in the dream. One possibility is that the dream is a direct expression of the dreamer's subconscious fears. Ironically, this can be a good thing, as research has demonstrated that pregnant women who have frightening dreams about childbirth actually have fewer problems than other women when they do give birth. The theory is that those who have nightmares are able to work through their anxieties in the dreams, and so are more relaxed and confident when the baby arrives.
Another possibility is that the subconscious mind uses the childbirth and death to symbolically represent a major change in the dreamer's life. The old life is about to pass away and a new life, represented by the newborn child, is about to begin.
An important rule of thumb is that the dream is about the dreamer. Other characters, even known people and relations, who appear in a dream most often represent some aspect of the dreamer's personality.

Freud theorized that dreams reflected?
He theorized that dreams reflected our suppressed desires. Our dreams are basically a branch of our subconsciousness. He separates our consciousness into three branches : the id, the ego and the superego. We are all born with our id. Thus we get our most basic needs fulfilled. The id is what we want at any given time without consideration of the consequences or even the reality of the situation. The ego is based on reality principal. The superego suppresses the actual desire because the superego is developed through moral and ethnically restraints. If our desires get suppressed, then our desires find a way to reveal themselves whether through our unconscious body language or our dreams.
If you ask me, my dream house is a massive mansion, with a Lamborghini and a private jet. The jet would land on the helipad on the TOP of my mansion/house, and there would be stairs to get up to their. Including the stairs to the helipad, the house will be a 5-layer house. There would be one layer underground were I could stash all my secrets and things, and keep all my spear cars. A bit like a safe, and a car park at the same time!
Then the second floor would be the entrance, with a massive double door to open. To open the doors, you would have to do an eye and thumb check through a machine.

A different answer:

What does it mean to dream about people that are dead and they are moving about and talking?
This could mean many different things, depending on who the dead are and what they are saying. It is quite normal to dream of friends and loved ones who have passed away, and dreams are often part of the grieving process. Close human relationships do not necessarily end with death.

To dream of a car accident, symbolizes your emotional state. You may be harboring deep anxieties and fears. Are you "driving" yourself too hard? This dream may tell you to slow down before you hit disaster. You need to rethink or re-plan your course of actions and set yourself on a better path.
The type of car accident (example: rear-end collision, head-on) also have significance in a dream. To analysis the dream further, more information on the type of accident is required.
What does it mean when you dream your wife is with someone else?
It may be more important to stress what the dream does not mean: your dreams provide no evidence or insight into anyone else's actual behavior. Your dream reflects your own fear and suspicion. You may feel inferior to other men and unworthy of your wife's affection, in which case the dream merely illustrates your fear. Or you may harbor suspicions that your wife is unfaithful; again, the dream only illustrates your own ideas. It does not confirm those ideas. Yet again, you may be in denial about your insecurities and doubts. In that case, your mind is using the dream to force you to admit to your own feelings, but, again, the dream tells you nothing at all about anything your wife may or may not be doing.

Alternatively, again depending on the emotional tone of the dream, it might merely express your sense of freedom, joy and happiness.
