Psychology and science of dreams has been much studied, 

theorized and understood with perspectives variable.

Away from all those technical theories, it is so commonly known that,
sleep provides rest, invigorating for next phase of awakened activity.

Often one who is hemmed in thought for days in and out, 
here brain plays tricks with this dream outlet, 
as sub conscious mind remains active 
during those consciously inactive or sleep period, 
and the moment a solution of the problem is cracked, it is revealed through the dreams.

This has had happened to many, 
as many have found their problems cracked in their dreams:

Your dreams could be the key to achieving your vision.

"I saw in a dream a table where all elements fell into place as required. Awakening, I immediately wrote it down on a piece of paper, only in one place did a correction later seem necessary."
(as quoted by Inostrantzev) 






Friedrich August Kekule von Stradonitz (Dreamed 1858 and 1865)
He described in a speech given at the Deutsche Chemische Gesellschaft (German Chemical Society):
He discovered the tetravalent nature of carbon, the foundation of structural organic chemistry.

"I fell into a reverie, and lo, the atoms were gamboling before my eyes! Whenever, hitherto, these diminutive beings had appeared to me, they had always been in motion; but up to that time, I had never been able to discern the nature of their motion. Now, however, I saw how, frequently, two smaller atoms united to form a pair; how a larger one embraced the two smaller ones; how still larger ones kept hold of three or even four of the smaller; whilst the whole kept whirling in a giddy dance. I saw how the larger ones formed a chain, dragging the smaller ones after them, but only at the ends of the chain. . . The cry of the conductor: "Clapham Road," awakened me from my dreaming; but I spent part of the night in putting on paper at least sketches of these dream forms. This was the origin of the Structural Theory."

Seven years later, the more famous incident occurred: a dream in which he realized that the benzene molecule had a circular structure, not a linear one like other organic compounds known at the time.

"...I was sitting writing on my textbook, but the work did not progress; my thoughts were elsewhere. I turned my chair to the fire and dozed. Again the atoms were gamboling before my eyes. This time the smaller groups kept modestly in the background. My mental eye, rendered more acute by the repeated visions of the kind, could now distinguish larger structures of manifold conformation; long rows sometimes more closely fitted together all twining and twisting in snake-like motion. But look! What was that? One of the snakes had seized hold of its own tail, and the form whirled mockingly before my eyes. As if by a flash of lightning I awoke; and this time also I spent the rest of the night in working out the consequences of the hypothesis."

Some more dreams
Agassiz's dream correctly predicting the structure of a fossil fish, Loewi's dream of an experiment to prove nerve impulses propagate chemically, Howe's dream leading to the modern sewing machine, Einstein's dream of sledding near the speed of light, Ramanujan's mathematical dreams, Parkinson's dream of the M9 fire-controller that turned the tide against the Luftwaffe--all these and more show dreams to be just as useful in hard science and technology as they unquestionably are in the arts, humanities, and soft sciences.
