Mastering your own dream interpretations
Do you seek the guidance of others in pursuit of the meaning of your own dreams ? Maybe interpretation is nearer to hand than you think. Certainly acquiring the skill to remember your dreams effectively is an initial stepping stone but what then ?
Well I was reading an article tonight that leans towards trying to relate your current activities and thoughts to what details you are observing in your dreams. The article was called ‘Dreams as Guidance to Life’s Questions’, is written by Kevin J. Todeschi and can be found at http://www.shirleymaclaine.com/articles/dreams/article-143. An interesting paragraph from the text is as follows :-
For the most part, dreams contrast and correlate the activities that are going on in our lives. They often provide the dreamer with other ways of looking at activities, relationships, and concerns that have been on his or her mind. Working with a dream simply suggests that we get a sense of whether or not the dream is positive, negative, uplifting, a warning - whatever it may be. After we have a sense of the theme or the feeling of the dream, the next step is to attempt to discover what area of our life appears most connected to that dream. In other words, even if we don’t understand every symbol, can we get an idea of what the dream may be suggesting about our life?
