About Dream Meanings

Question

Does anyone know anything about dream meanings??? Like are they for real? and what do certain things mean...

Answer 1

But this democratic consensus isn't what people are interested in when they ask if dreams are meaningful. So what do we mean when we ask if something has meaning or not?  Generally the answer depends on the context of the situation.

In the context of science when we ask if dreams are meaningful, it often means whether or not  they function to help us thrive and survive in some way.  Different sciences will approach meaning differently as each operates under a different story/context. A psychologist may want to know how the dream works to show a person a better way to live and experience life, while an anthropologist may be more interested in how the dream impacts the way people in a tribe alter or confirm the way they live and interact with one another. A brain scientist may be more interested in how dreaming and sleeping contribute to the restoration of our health or consolidation of our memories and experience.  

Artists and writers are more interested in the inspirational aspects of dreaming and how they can carry the images, novelties and creative dreaming process over into their own waking processes and creations.

Spiritual and tribal people are often aware of a different meaning of a dream, the dream as a message. The message may be from an ancestor, a spirit or god, or even from one's own soul or unconscious.

The same dream may have different meanings to all of these people. Which one is correct, or are they all incorrect in looking for meaning in a dream that has no meaning?  

Many people in the Dream Movement, a loose coalition of individuals and groups that study and work with dreams, formed the Association for the Study of Dreams (ASD) in 1984 as a "non-profit, international, multidisciplinary organization dedicated to the pure and applied investigation of dreams and dreaming." 1 The purpose of the organization was many-fold, "to promote an awareness and appreciation of dreams in both professional and public arenas; to encourage research into the nature, function, and significance of dreaming; to advance the application of the study of dreams; and to provide a forum for the eclectic and interdisciplinary exchange of ideas and information." 1 The overall consensus was that dreams have many levels and layers of meaning, but that the final decision about just what these meanings would be had to be left up to the individual. That is, the individual was to be the final authority on the meaning and value of his or her own life, and this included one's dreams. 2

Answer 3

Yes I have studied dream meanings. I need more information on your dream to find the meaning of it (that is if there is more information on it.

Answer 4

Yes, looking at dream dictionaries can be correct. From extensive studies scientists can connect images in dreams to parts of people's lives or things that are on their mind.

But there is more to it than "if you get this in a dream you'll get money!" its more like, you feel the need for money or you want it.

Answer 5

Dream are simply your unconscious processing information.  It can be from you daily life or it can be from a stomach.  They usually have some meaning for the dreamer but they do not predict the future.

The little you report about your dream suggests you feel somewhat overwhelmed in your life but you feel you will make it through the difficult time.
