What Exactly Are Dreams?

Question

What exactly are dreams, and what do they mean to you?

Answer 1

I'm with CoolB and Sash: dreams rise in value as you pay attention to them. Most of the images are allegorical, and need some poetic interpretation, tho what is said by you or them is of direct concern.

If some theme/event/being is repetitive and becomes of interest, make an illustrated *private* journal to see if a pattern emerges. Sooner or later, you will see that dreams are not random, but actual tools, if you will, for finding meaning in your inner life.

Answer 2

its usually just random thinngs that your brain think are important so it stores it. it like ram on a computer its on there til u shut it off once u shut it down it converts the data on to the hdd.

Answer 4

I think they are our subconscious working on problems that we have in reality, while we sleep. Kind of like a built in therapist.

Answer 5

I agree with cool b.
