Have you ever had a dream that was so wild or weird that it scared you? All you could think is what
But do many remember what they have dreamt at night? There are many times that you may remember the dream for a bit, but as you wake up more and the day goes on, you may also completely lose what you've dreamt about. In that case, should you even worry about what a dream means?
A person who is creative will use dreams to their advantage too. In fact many writers and painters will get stories or images directly from what they dreamt about. At times these images and ideas can be terrifying.
Though everyone has their own thoughts on what their dreams really mean. There are dream dictionaries that you can find online that will tell you supposedly just what those dreams mean.
How can that work though? Since each person has different ways that they have been raised, and different sets of priorities. Not only that but not everyone has the same desires, so dreams will be different. A poor person may constantly dream of wealth, just because they want money, it's a desire.
Speaking of desires, Sigmund Freud probably had the most interesting dream interpretations. He felt that ever dream a person had been based on a repressed feeling of some sort of sexual thought. But it is also well known that Freud loved to use Cocaine, now could that have made his thoughts always be focused on sex? Perhaps, but let's not take anything away from a very brilliant man, and perhaps the Father of Modern Psychology.
However, if you look back in history the thoughts of what dreams mean have changed. As society changes and technology advances people dream about different things.
In fact I would hate to think that everyone is the same. It's not the case, and although finding out what a dream might have meant is a lot of fun, it's not the end of the world if you have done something bad in a dream.
Heck dreams are the way that many live out fantasies they would never do in real life. So maybe in a sense Freud was semi right about his thoughts. Maybe it is the Id really trying to get out and show us how much fun we could have if we just let go. But most likely not.
