We all
dream but not all of us
recall the dream once we wake. We all
have the ability to remember our dreams and
learn from them.
| | | "What do dreams
mean and what is the meaning of my
dream?"
Dreams are a way for your
subconscious mind to express it's self, solve
problems and hopefully conect with you in the only
way it knows how - Through the use of symboligy
and emotions. Dreams can be wonderful, exciting,
extremely vivid and full of emotion.
Dreams can also take on bad
qualities and rapidly become a nightmare that
seems just as real as your waking life. Whatever
the case, dreams are there to tell you
something...
Remember, your dream is
coming from your subconcious mind and so is
totally specific for you. We are all individuals
and how your mind choses to comunicate messages to
you is totally dependant on how your mind works
and past experiences. This is why no one dream
meaning or dream interpretation will be right for
100% of people. For example, if you have a dream
where your teeth are falling out, there can be
several dream meaning. Teeth symbolize important
things in or from your mouth ( thoughts,
communication, emotions displayed verbally). The
dream meaning of this can be that you feel your
thoughts and opinions are not valued and that
anything coming from your mouth is seen by others
as bad, rotten or no good. Or, if you are a
gossip, the dream is telling you to stop gossiping
bec those thing should remain in your mouth where
they do more good. Once the tooth is out of your
mouth it does you no good anymore and actually
lessens your appearance making you look bad to
others... For more on the dream meaning of
teeth see Dream
Meanings - Teeth.
Dream symbols must be
personalized for each individual person, so
general interpretations don't always fit the bill,
like I've said repeatedly throughout this site.
Please remember this, and remember to interpret
your entire dream's context and not just an
isolated symbol.

The meaning of
a dream and your brain
Our brains are in
constant activity. Different states of
consciousness (like awake, asleep, alert, drowsy,
etc) cause different brain wave activity and
higher or lower brainwave frequency. Our conscious
mind, or our waking mind, only used a small
percentage (some say this is only 10%) of our
brains total capacity. Other areas of
our brain control things like breathing,
heartbeat, converting light to vision, sound to
hearing, balance when we walk, etc. etc. This too
has it's own percentage (small). Another area
controls imagination. This area is widely an
undiscovered frontier.
The meaning of a dream and
the imagination
Imagination is much
more than simple daydreaming. It is creating an
idea, exploring possibilities. When you look at
clouds and see shapes, or wood grain and see
images, this is the "order from chaos" part of
your imagination. The mind cannot deal with chaos
very well and will resist it as much as it
can even if it has to fabricate or make you
believe there is order when none
exists.
Dreams have been a
mystery to us since Adam first breathed life. The
stuff of legends, myth and fairy tale, dreams have
always fascinated mankind. We can learn much from
our dreams, if we learn to listen with a
trained ear. There is nothing psychic about
understanding dreams. There is a certain degree of
intuition, coupled with logic and a working
knowledge of dreaming symbology. Click the picture

information to help you in the understanding of
dreams. This will be an excellent starting point
for you.
More on the meaning of a
dream
Dreaming occures in
the subconscious mind, well away from the control
of the conscious waking mind. However, at certain
parts of the REM (Rapid Eye Movement) cycle of
sleep, the conscious mind gets to see what the
subconscious is doing and records what is
views in memory. To the conscious mind, what it is
seeing is just as real (sometimes more so) as
anything it experiences in the waking world. If
fact, most of the time it believes what it is
seeing and feeling to be real. What you experience
in the dream is your subconscious minds attempt to
comunicate something to you. Many times your mind
is processing such things as trauma and
problems in your life at that time, truths you are
denying yourself or refusing to accept, spiritual
growth, beliefs, psychic intuition (we
ALL have this to a certain
degree), communications from a higher being
(GOD).
A dream is
easily influenced by factors in your life and
spirit, and these influences create "categories"
that are almost infinite. We do broadly categorize
them in terms like "prophetic, standard, physical
and nightmare" (to name just a few) And these we
study each their own, in order to gain benefit
from them. I look at it this way: Our mind and
spirit together with our brain, is actually the
greatest computer ever devised! To understand it's
"back of the house" processing is to learn more
about ourselves, God, our future and each other.
Many things can be gained from a dream, better
health (mental and physical), entertainment and
even financial gain! (dreaming of a invention or
idea) Now that you know some of the basics about a
dream and what (theoretically) dreams are, you
should have a better grasp on how to understand
and use your dream
better. | |
