How to Interpret Your Dreams

By Ivan J. Thomas

Book Overview

The Interpretation of dreams is the process of assigning meaning to dreams. Dreams were, in ancient times considered a supernatural communication or a means of divine intervention, whose message could be raveled by people with certain powers. Derived from the Middle English word, dreme meaning joy and music, they are classified into visual and symbolism, a thought is translated to visual images and a symbol replaces an action, person, or idea respectively. Dreaming reflects a pivotal aspect of the processing of memory. Human beings, throughout history have sought to understand the meaning of dreams. Till today many struggle to understand their dreams in relation to their lives. They come in different types depending on one's mood and/or stress levels. Most reveal answers to one's questions and provide spiritual guidance to the dreamer. It is of great importance that the dreamer remembers their dream, which isn't that easy but can be harnessed. Dreams should be noted especially when not properly understood. Five minutes after the end of the dream, half the content is forgotten. After ten minutes, 90 percent of it is lost. Seek guidance to significant dreams and relate them to your life. Living without dreams, as some claim they never dream, is very dangerous as they unfold answers to our questions through symbols and visuals. Symbols may include animals, material possessions, people and even events such as death. One's dream of a Gecko symbolizes an agreement or affirmation. The answer to a decision that you need to make is "yes". Alternatively, the dream signifies renewal explained in details in "Advanced Dictionary of Dreams" by Ivan J. Thomas. Toddlers do not dream about themselves. They do not appear in their own dreams until the age of three or four. Nightmares are common in children, typically beginning at around age three and occurring up to age seven to eight.
