Dream Interpretation and Ways to Make the Most Out of Your Dreams by Neoli Lance Marcos

A dream that is not interpreted is like a letter that has not been opened. --from The Talmud.
We are living in a dream-deficient society, to borrow a term from Nancy Grace, a teacher of the dream phenomenon since 1989. Ours is a society that talks about dreams only when they are interesting, that is when they are nightmares or movie-ish. Otherwise, we have become content with just waking up for the day, easing back into our routine work life, and not minding interpreting our dreams and what they are trying to tell us, just letting them accumulate-- a treasure box of letters forever unopened.

Dream Interpretation Unlocks Metaphors

Not remembering our dreams is also like having a conversation but remembering only the nice grand parts of it, while missing the subtle details and nuances that make dreams more meaningful.
Here are five ways to make the most of your dream and dream interpretation then:

1. Keep a dream journal or diary. Make it a habit to write down your dreams of night before. Do this right away upon waking up; don't trust yourself that you can remember your dream later in the day. As an exercise, this may sound tedious, but it'll grow on you. You'll be amazed to read about your dreams after a month, two months, a year.

2. Discuss your dream with your family, friends, or loved ones. There is an irreplaceable feeling of relief and liberation in being able to share your dreams with people who know you. They might offer their own versions of dream interpretation, helpfully adding to the rich layer of meanings in it.

3. Write a poem, or a song, or even make a film out of your dream. Musicians like Paul McCartney, Johnny Cash, Sting, and Shawn Colvin all write songs inspired by their dreams. Painter Joan Miró would deliberately deprive himself of sleep, sometimes for several days, just to inspire himself to paint wondrous characters and sceneries that have percolated in his head. As a matter of fact, the Surrealist movement utilised the fantasies of their dreams for inspiration. (Think of Dali's melting watches and clock.)

4. Don't be afraid or shy to consult a dream interpreter or even a psychic. If you don't feel comfortable discussing your dream with your loved ones, especially when they are included in the dream, then a total stranger may be the better person to interpret it. Oftentimes, the best dream interpretation come from people who don't know you, and, thus, are able to take an objective point of view from your dream.

4 Quick Steps to Find Out What Your Dream Is About by George Blackwell

Dreams are our friends - yes, even nightmares! They can tell us a lot about our lives as well as give us a hint about secret desires, aspirations and ambitions. The trouble with dreams, however, is that, more often than not, they come to in a form of a bizarre mumbo-jumbo, more likely to complicate your search for truth than facilitate it. It is with this problem in mind that this article looks at four very easy steps to find out what your dream is about.

1. Record Your Dream If you are at all serious about dream interpretation, keep a notebook and a pencil ready and record your dream as soon as you wake up. Many people make the mistake of assuming that just because they remember the dream now they'll be able to remember it a few hours later. This is not true! Unless you've written down the details of your dream immediately after waking up, you won't have much to work with later when you proceed to the next step - to actually find out what your dream is about. At this point, I should add that while you can try and interpret a dream on your own, having an external reference source written by a professional dreamologist (such as this one) can be of great help (more on that later).

2. Associate Your Dream After writing your dream down, you will more often than not be looking at a list of bizarre events and occurrences, from being chased by a three-headed green Martian to seeing your fiancé attend an important event in little more than their underwear! The key to this stage is to look past the seemingly meaningless pattern and associate these apparently bizarre events to developments in your life. For example, does your fiancé have an important meeting coming up? You will never be able to find out what your dream is about unless you are able to associate it with what's happening to you in your everyday life.

3. Analyze Your Dream Having established associations with the real world, it is time to analyze your dream. To take the fiancé example even further, perhaps he worries about not being prepared for the meeting (hence the mental picture of him showing up to it in nothing more than underwear?) As you can see, creativity is critical for this stage (and having a good-looking fiancé usually helps, too!) Remember, to find out what your dream is about you must take an open-minded approach towards analysis.

4. Crosscheck Your Dream This is an optional step that involves cross-checking your understanding of the dream with existing resources available both online and in the real world. Although ultimately dream interpretation is a personal process that relies on your unique experiences, a lot of people exhibit certain commonalities in what they experience - and therefore consulting with a reference source may be a good idea. There's plenty of e-books written by dreamologists available on the Internet - Wayne Landgrebe wrote a very interesting one that addresses a lot of questions that an amateur dreamologist will inevitably face as they delve deep into the science of their dreams (you can get a copy of it by clicking here) - it's a very nice manual and you'll find it quite handy as try to discover just what your dream is about!

Dream Interpretation and the Fountain of Youth Within by Ron Masa, Ph.D.

Juan Ponce de Leon, who arrived with Columbus, never found the legendary "fountain of youth," whose waters prevented aging. Currently, medicine is the geography in which that goal is still sought. Human beings always seek outside of themselves that which resides within: "I kept reaching around for you, but you were inside my hand." (Rumi)

Inside everyone, as if stored in the "deep freeze" of the unconscious mind, is any potential we have failed to actualize in our waking lives. We are all, to some degree, "failure to thrive" adults. Dreams are one profound tool that access these untapped resources. Dream images birth into our awareness the talents, capacities and energies stored within us. One extraordinary case made this abundantly clear.

June S. began exploring her dreams at age 68, when she was markedly declining. Her early dreams excavated the interior forces active in the present and eventually addressed her earliest roots. Her childhood in the deserts of Utah was rugged. Her sister did not survive childhood... and many parts of June did not either! Various non-essential qualities and their attendant life-force simply did not emerge from the unconscious.

After several years of intensive dream work, June reported a dream that changed her life--and my own understanding of dreams: June is holding three babies and is feeling a radiant joy filling her heart as she cradles and loves and adores these three infants. In dream-like logic, they are wrapped in lettuce leaves.

I said I suspected these were three aspects of her own psyche which had not survived her first year and were only now--7 decades later--ready to be born!

"Probably, to see if you're a vegetarian yet," by which I meant, that this new energy is not to be consumed directly and applied to more of whatever projects the ego already intends. It is new life meant to grow on its own terms.

I had no idea what this remarkable dream foreshadowed, and I have never seen another case so dramatically clear, though this process is very common in dreams. It is why late bloomers benefit so much from the midwifery of dream interpretation.

Within a year of this dream June called to tell me she was having a bit of a "problem:" while her peers were growing visibly older by the month, she was growing visibly younger. And gaining more energy and more enthusiasm and was developing new interests she had never had. She made it clear she would be happy to cope with this new "problem" however long it continued!

I lost track of June for several years, but got occasional reports when she resumed dating (and affiliated activities she had assumed were long extinct). I remember her joking about how all the "middle-agers" would tire from dancing (she was taking lessons) and from partying (she was giving lessons) long before her energy ran down. Then she returned to school to study mystical and spiritual topics and writing and poetry and art.

Next I heard she had completed the 400 mile peace march across Russia! When she started her Sunday evening poetry salons I attended and was amazed that her energy and life force had continued to strengthen for years after the famous "3 babies" dream which she marked as the turning point in her transformation. It seemed that three separate one year old aspects of her psychic energy had been "averaged in" with her 70+ year old self, resulting in reverse aging. Too bad Ponce de Leon died seeking the fountain in Florida, when it was within, all along.

Virtually every cutting-edge lecture or performance I attended for years revealed June S. well ahead of me in line or already seated somewhere in the front row. I remember telling her at a Robert Bly lecture, the best thing I could do to further my spiritual education would be to steal her daytimer.

When I last saw June she was in her eighties and still so full of life and enthusiasm and playfulness, I could not believe this was the deteriorating 68 year old I had met, long ago. I now know that unlived potentials reside within every person. Whenever we fail to thrive, we store that life force, and if we do the work to reclaim it, we find ourselves as poet David Whyte says, "growing younger each day toward death."

Dream Interpretation And The Theories Of Carl Jung by J. Foley

There are two names that are inextricably associated with the art and science of dream interpretation - Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung. While Freud saw the unconscious as a wild place, Jung saw it as more refined and spiritual.

Carl Jung was born in 1875 and lived enjoyed a long and fruitful career until his death in 1961. Carl Jung originally studied under the tutelage of Sigmund Freud, and he learned a lot about the mind, the unconscious and the world of dreams during his role as a student.

It was their differing interpretations of the dream world, and their different views of the unconscious, however, that eventually led the two men to go their separate ways. Eventually, their differing views on what dreams meant caused a major rift in their relationship.

Just like Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung believed that the subconscious existed in its own right. Unlike Sigmund Freud, however, Carl Jung did not view the unconscious as a wild, instinctual and animalistic place.

Instead, unlike Freud, Jung saw the unconscious on a more spiritual level. To Carl Jung, dreams were the best method for people to acquaint themselves with their unconscious mind. Carl Jung did not see dreams as a way to hide the dreamer's true feelings from the conscious mind, as Freud did. Jung saw dreams as providing a guide to the waking self and helping the dreamer achieve a kind of wholeness. To Jung, dreams were a way of offering solutions to problems the dreamer was experiencing in his or her waking life.

Jung and Archetypes:

The most common facet of dream interpretation associated with the work of Carl Jung is that of archetypes. Jung believed that there are certain universal themes and universal images that were common to every culture and every civilization around the world. To Carl Jung, these universal archetypes were proof of what he called the collective unconscious - or memories handed down through the ages from one generation to the next.

Some of the most well known archetypes described by Carl Jung include:

The Persona

- Jung described the persona as the image presented to the public by each person. In essence the persona is the public mask, the part of yourself that is shown to the world at large. The opposite of the persona is the shadow.

The Shadow

- Whereas the persona represents the parts of the personality that are shown to the world, the shadow archetype represents each person's rejected aspects of themselves. The shadow is often seen as a symbol of fear, anger or weakness.

The Anima

- Jung saw the anima as the feminine aspects of the male mind. The anima is the repressed female parts of the male psyche.

The Animus

- The animus is the opposite of the anima. Where the anima is the feminine part of the male psyche, the animus is the masculine part of the female mind. Like the anima, the animus is most often repressed during waking hours.

The Divine Child

- The divine child was described by Carl Jung as a symbol of the true self. The divine child is often seen to represent the sense of potential or the sense of vulnerability.

The Wise Old Man

- Jung saw the archetype of the wise old man as a symbol of the self or of a powerful figure.

The Great Mother

- The great mother is seen as a symbol of nurture, growth, or fertility. The great mother archetype is also associated with dominance and seduction.

These archetypes appear in every culture, and variations of them have occurred around the world and in many different times. Jung saw the appearance of these archetypes in dreams as highly significant, and he used these archetypal images in his dream interpretation.

Dream Interpretation in a World Not Fully Awake by Joan Candaza

We can't deny the fact: we spend about one-third of our lives sleeping. No matter how busy we say we are and no matter how we would like to extend the 24 hours in the clock just for us to finish everything--we still, and we just have to succumb to sleep. Obviously, our body and mind need to rest. And after a hard day's work, we owe ourselves just that.

Of course, we know that we don't just let ourselves fall dead-asleep every night. We dream. Our minds are at their most awake and freest when we are dreaming, and we dream for the best of reasons.

Oneirology, the science that investigates the very subjective and flimsy realm of dreams considers dreams generally in three ways: Physiologically, they are responses to neural processes while we are asleep; psychologically, they are projections of our Unconscious; and spiritually, as believed in olden times and up to now, dreams are messages from God or predictions of the future.

Or if we want a simpler explanation of dreams, the Charaka Samhita of India says dreams are "what we have seen, heard, experienced, wish to experience, forced to experience, imagined, and by the inherent nature of the body".

It has been said that much of what we experience as déjà vu is simply our minds recalling something we have dreamed before. Perhaps, more importantly than remembering, dreams are what we want to happen. Or dreams are what we would carry out in real life if we were only braver, less shy.

This is, basically, the finding of psychologist Joe Griffin, who for 12 years intensively researched and studied scientific evidences on the topic of dreams. His unified theory of dreams explains that dreams are metaphorical translations of what we expect during our waking state. Our expectations and desires, of course, are not always met in the real world (either because of circumstances beyond our control or because our ego prohibits it (that is, we are too shy or too scared to act upon them).

Whatever it is, our brain has to finish the cycle of arousal triggered by those expectations. These frustrated expectations are thus carried over to our dreaming world. Dreams then, needless to say, reveal a lot about the dreamer. Dreams are the portals into our Unconscious. Indeed, we are such stuff as dreams are made of. And considering that our dreams are almost always metaphorical in content, we can rightfully say that we are poets in our dreams.

But unlike real poets with pen, we don't usually know the meaning behind our own metaphors. For this, humanity is deeply indebted to psychics and dream interpreters. In a world that becomes increasingly jaded when it comes to spiritual matters, psychics and oneiromancers unlock those metaphors. By helping us understand our dreams, they coax us back into life from a state of "wandering death." Consider Joseph, the most famous dream interpreter in the Bible. He advised the Pharaoh on political issues based on his dreams, which inevitably helped him rule his people wisely.

We need that too. Now more than ever we need to take charge of ourselves, and only through acknowledging what we really want in life can we do that. We need to look deep into ourselves and stare at our dreams in the eye. If we have to ask for help from others, from the gifted people who can guide us in the dreamworld, from the psychics who make plain for us what we embellish in our dreams, then let's ask for help. The important thing is we are now aware. And we will no longer be dead-asleep.

Your DREAMS can give you numbers by Dottye Blake

Shortly after my first big win, I had a dream. I was standing in line at my favorite convenience store in New Port Richey, FL, when five numbers came up for Fantasy Five. The Lotto machine at the store actually "coughed them up" and a mechanical sounding voice read off the numbers while I was inside the store (in my dream). I awoke with a start, and scrambled to find a pen and something to write on in order to get the numbers down before they faded from memory. I went in and bought a 30 draw ticket with these numbers, and a few days later, four of the five numbers came in, and I was one number off from the other! If I had chosen 19 instead of 18, I would have won another $30,000!! I wasn't greedy, though- I was grateful for the extra money, and used most of it to buy groceries for a friend who was having a hard time paying the bills and keeping food in the house.

In his book 10,000 Dreams Interpreted, Gustavus Miller cites the long history of using dreams and their interpretation as a predictive tool. He quotes the Christian Bible: "In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed; then he openeth the ears of men and sealeth their instruction that he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.'' --Job xxxiii., 15.

Miller writes in his preface: "The Bible, as well as other great books of historical and revealed religion, shows traces of a general and substantial belief in dreams. Plato, Goethe, Shakespeare and Napoleon assigned to certain dreams prophetic value. Joseph saw eleven stars of the Zodiac bow to himself, the twelfth star. The famine of Egypt was revealed by a vision of fat and lean cattle. The parents of Christ were warned of the cruel edict of Herod, and fled with the Divine Child into Egypt. Pilate's wife, through the influence of a dream, advised her husband to have nothing to do with the conviction of Christ. But the gross materialism of the day laughed at dreams, as it echoed the voice and verdict of the multitude, 'Crucify the Spirit, but let the flesh live.' Barabbas, the robber, was set at liberty. The prophets and those who have stood nearest the fountain of universal knowledge used dreams with more frequency than any other mode of divination."

The Alpha state of mind is also used as a predictive tool. It is a meditative state used in many Shamanistic rituals. When I picked my winning numbers the first time, I got my blank card and meditated on it, putting myself in Alpha. I did this with closed eyes. Then, I opened my eyes and looks for the numbers on the grid which seemed to be "vibrating" or "dancing". I picked seven combinations of five numbers, and bought 30 days of each combination. The investment was $210. At that time, I had come into an inheritance, so I was blessed with the money to be able to do this. Only play what you can afford, do not bet your rent money or mortgage payment, or utility bill money. I had on me the four items that I mentioned on the first page of this web site. The blue dot from the National Enquirer and the astrological talisman were in my pockets. The High John the Conqueror root was secreted under my clothes, and the Low John root, also called Galangal, was in my cheek, much like a tobacco-chewer would secrete a pinch of tobacco. I have a full copy of Gustavus Miller's e-book 10,000 Dreams Interpreted. I've seen this selling for up to $37, but I would like to give you a copy as a "thank you" for visiting my web site, http://www.beatthelottery.info. Please email me from the link on the "dreams" page to get a free copy.

Dream Analysis - Common Symbols Seen in Dreams by Jenny Gill

Dreams contain lots and lots of objects, symbols and people and they can all be very confusing for all of us. Dreams seem to contain their own particular language, and that language can be difficult to read for those who are unfamiliar with dream symbolism. There are a number of symbols in dreams that are thought to be universal. Some of these universal themes include flying, falling, losing teeth, and failing a test.

In addition to these universal symbols, however, there are a number of other important symbols encountered in dreams, some are as follows:

Angels Angels are typically seen as symbols of goodness, purity and wisdom. The appearance of angels in a dream can be a representation of the quest for spiritual goodness, or a desire to improve your live. Angels can also be symbols of enlightenment. Angels often appear in dreams as guides or teachers. The more spiritually minded often see the appearance of angels as omens or messages.

Animals Animals encountered in dreams are often symbols of our own animal nature or baser instincts. Animals can also be used by the dreaming mind to symbolize repressed desires.

The exact interpretation of an animal dream depends in large measure on the type of animal in the dream. The key to interpreting an animal dream is to examine the nature of the animal dreamed about.

Black Dreams about black objects can symbolize a fear of aging and death. Black can also represent a perceived void in the dreamer's life.

Blood Blood in the dream world can represent power and vitality, but the exact meaning of blood in a dream is depending on the context of the dream. Violent dreams where blood is spilled can represent an emotional upheaval or a loss of control. On the other hands, blood on the hands can represent feelings of guilt.

Cars Driving a car in your dream can represent the joy of freedom, while dreaming of a car out of control can symbolize danger or a loss of control.

Dancing A dream dance can have many different meanings, depending on the nature of the dance and its context. Dancing can be a symbol for sex, or for romance. Dancing in a dream can also be a symbol of freedom.

Eggs Dreaming about eggs can mean a striving for renewal or rebirth, or a feeling of wholeness and unity. Dreaming of broken eggs, on the other hand, can represent a shattering of faith or a shattering of illusions.

Fog Dreaming of fog can mean the dreamer is confused. Fog in a dream can also mean you are ready to explore unexplored parts of your life or your personality.

Gate A dream gate can be either an entrance or an exit, deepening on which way it is swinging.

Illness Dreaming about sickness can be an indication that you need to seek help for a physical ailment. The unconscious mind can be more aware of the body's condition than the conscious mind.

Keys Finding keys in a dream can indicate you have been keeping a secret, or that you are locking away a secret life.

Mountains Dreams in which you are climbing a mountain can symbolize achieving a goal or reaching for higher levels of success. Dreams in which you are climbing down a mountain can mean that you have reached your goals.

Owl Dreams of owls can represent the need for knowledge and wisdom. In some cases, the owl can be a physical representation of the subconscious mind. In many cases, owls are used to deliver messages in dreams.

Road The road seen in a dream can indicate the direction the dreamer is headed, and the nature of the road can indicate the perceived nature of the journey. A long straight road can mean smooth sailing ahead, while a winding or bumpy road can indicate perceived difficulties along the way.

Stairs Dreams of climbing stairs can mean a reaching or a yearning for higher levels of awareness, while deems of descending stairs can mean you fear a diminishing status.

Underground Dreaming of going underground can symbolize a journey to the subconscious, or it can mean that the dreamer is wrestling with issues he or she is afraid to face. In addition, venturing underground during a dream can mean the dreamer is ready to explore previously hidden issues.

In conclusion then, if any of the above symbols are in your dreams, you now know what they may mean.

Dream Interpretation and Types of Dreams by Badi Purwa

Dream researchers have discovered several distinct categories of dreams, and these dream categories can be very useful both to people attempting to interpret their own dreams and to professional psychologist and therapists striving to interpret the dreams of others. This article will discuss these categories of dreams.

While not technically a dream, since it takes place while we are awake, researchers are looking into just where the daydream fits on the spectrum of dreaming, and what it can teach us about more traditional dreams.

It is estimated that most people spend between 70 and 120 minutes each day engaged in daydreaming. Daydreaming is thought to be a level of consciousness below that of a normal waking state but above that of sleep. Daydreaming falls about midway between these two extremes.

During a daydream, we allow our imaginations to take us away from the mundane tasks of the day. As the mind is allowed to wander and conscious awareness is reduced, we can become lost in the fantasy or imaginary scenario.

Lucid dreams are among the most fascinating subjects in all of dream research. Lucid dreaming takes place when the dreamer realizes that he or she is dreaming while still immersed in the dream. Lucid dreaming occurs in that moment when you tell yourself - "This is only a dream".

The occurrence of lucid dreams varies widely from person to person, with some people reporting never having lucid dreams and others reporting almost 100% lucid dreams.

While most dreamers wake up when they realize that they are in a dream, other people are able to develop the ability to remain in the dream and take control of it. These people are able to become an active participant in their dreams, and to take the dream narrative where they want it to go. These people experience some of the most enjoyable and interesting dreams.

Many people are troubled by frightening and disturbing dreams, commonly known as nightmares. Young children in particular often suffer from nightmares brought on by fears of monsters in their closets and under the bed, as well as other types of fear.

Of course nightmares are not confined to childhood, and many adults, particularly those who have suffered real life trauma, are particularly susceptible to nightmares. Those people suffering from post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), such as soldiers returning from war, and rescue workers who have been through harrowing situations, report a higher incidence of nightmares than the public at large.

Many people who suffer from frequent nightmares report a history of real life problems, including psychiatric problems, problems with drugs or alcohol, or problems with family relationships. Treatment for frequent nightmares should therefore be aimed at dealing with the initial trauma or traumas that created the situation in the first place.

Most people have had a recurring dream at one point in their life, a dream that repeats itself, with minor variations or even none at all. Recurring dreams can be about any subject, and they focus on that subject night after night.

Some recurring dreams are positive and uplifting, but studies show the majority of recurring dreams to be negative in nature. Dreams can recur in this manner because the real life event that triggered it has remained unresolved. Dealing with the real life trauma responsible for recurring nightmares is often the best way to banish the bad dream.

Some dreamers report experiencing narrative dreams, in which the dream picks up where it left off night after night. These dreams are somewhat rare, but the people who experience them report them to be very vivid and memorable. Keeping a dream journal can be a big help in both remembering and interpreting these kinds of dreams.

Healing dreams are often seen as sending a message to the dreamer regarding his or her health. Healing dreams often spur the dreamer to take a long delayed trip to the dentist or doctor.

Prophetic dreams are also known as precognitive dreams, and the people experiencing these dreams often report the ability to use them to foretell the future. Independent studies of these types of dreams are rare, and the jury remains out on whether this ability to see the future exists.

One non supernatural explanation for the prophetic dream is that the subconscious mind pieces together bits of information encountered throughout the day, then puts them together in a form that makes sense to the dreamer.

Epic dreams are somewhat rare, but they are unforgettable to those who experience them. Epic dreams are so vivid, and so compelling that they simply cannot be ignored. The tiniest details of these dreams are often remembered for many years. These epic dreams may possess lots of symbols and meaning for the dreamer.
