Are My Dreams Trying to Tell Me Something?



Have you ever noticed that certain recurring dreams tend to mean the same thing? This can be great information, if you know what those recurring dreams are trying to tell you! Here are some of the most common dreams and their meanings as well as how to interpret them correctly to help you figure out what they may be trying to tell you...


What are dreams?

Dreams are our minds way of processing events, thoughts, and feelings that have been gathered throughout the day. The most common theory for what dreams mean is that they represent wishes we may have or things we wish could happen in life. For example, you may dream about meeting a celebrity and it could be your wish to meet them in person. Or maybe you dream about getting injured in some way and this might be your subconscious telling you that you need to take better care of yourself. 

While it's true that most people don't remember their dreams, the ones they do remember are often very vivid with a lot of detail which can make them seem more real than memories of things that happened during the day.
                                          
                                        


What do dreams mean?

Dreams can be used as a way to communicate with your subconscious. A dream may act as a warning for something that will happen in the future, or it could have no meaning at all. To make sense of your dreams, consider what happened during the day and if there is anything on your mind that you need help with. If you are having recurring nightmares, talk to someone about them and try not to let them stress you out.


How can I interpret my dreams?

  • Some people believe that dreams are prophetic messages from the spirit world. Others say that they reflect your subconscious thoughts and desires. Whatever the case, it is a good idea to record your dreams in a journal or notebook so you can try and decipher their meaning later. 
  • Start by looking at what was happening in the dream when you first noticed something different or unusual. What did you see? What were you doing or feeling? Who were you with?
  • Notice any recurring themes in your dreams, such as animals, symbols, colors, numbers, etc., which may help with interpretation. You might also want to consider how old you are in your dream because this might represent something about yourself now or an aspect of yourself which needs more attention.


What if my dreams are disturbing?

Dreams are a complex and often misunderstood part of the human experience. They can be revealing, comforting, or just plain weird. But what if my dreams are disturbing? What if I'm dreaming about being chased by a bear, or getting stabbed in the back by a friend who looks like an old family pet? There's no way to know for sure how people will interpret the meaning of their dreams, but there are some common themes that might shed some light on why you're having these kinds of nightmares.


Should I keep a dream journal?

Some people believe that dreams are a way for the subconscious mind to interact with the conscious mind. While it's not always a great idea, keeping a dream journal can be helpful if you're trying to figure out what your dreams are trying to tell you. If you want to keep track of them, all you have to do is try and remember your dream as soon as possible and write it down in your journal before going back to sleep. 

It's important that you don't read over what you've written about the dreams until after they happen so that nothing will influence them. That way, when something happens in your dreams, it'll be easier for you figure out what they may have meant.
