The Meaning of Your Dream
The Meaning of Your Dream We have been searching for the meaning of our dreams since the beginning of mankind. We have learned where our dreams come from, and quite often what caused us to have a particular dream. We have many types of dreams ranging from the exotic or sexual dream to very frightening dreams. We see images, hear sounds, and sometime can feel sensations in our dreams. There are times when we hear voices in our dreams that we cannot control. We know all of these things about dreaming, but we have not yet learned why we dream. Do dreams have special meanings? Are dreams brought on by incidents that happened during the day, or during this week or month? Although we do not know why we dream, and we certainly have plenty of theories, we are still looking for the answer. We know dreams originate in the brain, but do not understand what the neurological cause is. We do know there are 5 phases of sleep and that we dream in all of them. Most believe dreams are reflections of the subconscious mind, and some believe they are predictions of the future. There are even some people [...]

Field of Dreams – If you believe the impossible, the incredible can come true
I watched the film Field of Dreams again recently and some of the quotes just came to life for me and made me reflect on where I am in my own life. “All his life, Ray Kinsella (main character in the film) was searching for his dreams. Then one day, his dreams came looking for him.” For those that haven’t seen the movie if you are searching for inspiration on what can happen when you believe this is a truly inspirational movie ! I won’t say more or it will give the game away but I’ve included some of the lines which made me stop and think. Around 2 years ago I was working in a safe corporate job where I had worked for some 20 years and then I was made redundant. Looking back this was the catalyst to a new life and future but at the time seemed the worst thing in the world ! You know when you spend time dreaming what your future would look like if you weren’t tied down with a 9-5 job? Well suddenly this was my reality – I may have dreamed of not working, being independent, having no-one to answer to [...]

The meaning of a wedding dreams usually signifies the happy union of yourself with yet another thing that you would like to somehow be mated to in life. This can be a job, a relationship, a new bike, or any one thing or person. Dreaming of getting married is a very common dream. Often it simply represents the biological ticking. Both sexes will dream of marriage when they start feeling the urge to have a child. According to both Carl Jung and Freud, dreaming of getting married can also mean the need to integrate your own personality or psyche’s components.

The Meaning Of Dreaming!
Do you ever wake up in the morning and say, “that was an amazing dream!” Do you ever wonder what your dreams mean? I have been dreaming vividly for years.And I have been asking myself for a long time; what do my dreams mean. I want to share an excerpt from a book that answered so many questions for me. THE SUBCONSCIOUS MEMORY The subconscious memory may be the direct cause of certain dreams. When the mind is centered on certain things, the sleeper goes over his life again and again in phantom fashion. He lives over the experiences of his daily life. Very often the ego enlightens the sleeper of some material thing for his own benefit, which he may use advantageously in his waking state, but as he generally looks at the phenomena of dreams as an hallucination of the brain, he allows many a golden opportunity to slip through his fingers because the materialist’s brain cannot grasp things of the spirit. All the knowledge and rubbish of our past live is stored up in the subconscious mind where it remains in minute form. Memory is only the awakening of the subconscious mind, a long and forgotten incident, [...]
The Meaning Of Dreams
There is a guiding principle to dream interpretation, and Edgar Cayce said it best when he called for us to “interpret the dreamer” and not just the dream. Dreams are a tool, like the proverbial “finger pointing to the moon.” Don’t focus on the finger or you will miss out on all the heavenly glory. Dreams are the finger and they are pointing to the dreamer. Interpreting your dreams is an exercise in self-discovery and self-growth. They are almost always referring back to you and every character, image and emotion is usually referring to various parts of your psyche. The primary purpose of dreams is to attempt to balance the psyche. Keeping this in mind will help you understand the meaning of your dreams and prevent you from getting way off track in your interpretation. Trying to understand one dream in isolation is like trying to understand a person by spending one day with them. By recording all of your dreams in a dream journal you will, over time, find it easier to understand individual dreams you have in the future. Dreams are like plays or movies that we create every night, and they have a similar structure. It can [...]
