In early 2000 my little boy used to wake up in the night and having nightmares. He'd wake up crying and sweating and saying that he was dreaming about a star falling out of the sky. He told me it was green and he could see "green fire" behind it. I hadf put it down to covid anxiety and thought he was just having particularly bad dreams because his mind was working overtime and there had been so much change in his life in such a short time as he was only 4 yrs old then. Anyway around a week or so after the last time he had woke up crying about the "falling star" I saw a news announcement about comet Neowise and how it was going to be visible to the eye from a certain date onwards. The picture was of a green comet with a green tail. My son was looking over my shoulder at the time and he said Daddy that's the star in my dream! The green falling star. So, he had dreamt about comet Neowise before it had even been announced and because he didn't know what a comet was she just called it a falling green star. I never told anyone about this until now.
