Dream Interpretation: Why It’s So Important and How to Approach Dream Interpretation

Our dreams can have a great impact on our lives and offer us wonderful insights into our minds. All we have to do is analyze them and find out exactly what it is they’re trying to tell us. Dreams can hold valuable secrets to our lives and the dream symbols can help sort through many problems and dilemmas in a way no self help book in the world could hope to.

I hope you’ll bookmark Dream Prophesy.com and subscribe to our e-mail alerts and/or rss feed so you can learn how you can interpret your own dreams and learn how they can help you get more from life.

Below are a few guidelines for interpreting and analyzing your dreams:

  • Make the meanings of the dream symbols in your dream line up with your real life.  If you are terrified of snakes, a snake dream will have a different meaning for you than it would someone who keeps snakes as pets and loves them the way the rest of us love our cats and dogs.
  • Submit your dream to Dream Prophesy.com for your own personalized dream interpretation and dream analysis. Our contact form is on the site.  Unless you mark your dream as private, we do share the dream with our readers.  This way, many people are helped by your dream interpretation.
  • Write down your dreams, as soon as you wake up. It doesn’t matter if it’s a regular dream or a nightmare.  Even the most, seemingly, insignificant dream can hold a wealth of information and insight.   Don’t worry about trying to analyze it at that exact moment – simply write down what you remember.
  • Even more importantly, write down how you feel when you first wake up.  The emotions you have at that moment are the emotions you were experiencing in the dream and are absolutely vital to the dream interpretation.
  • Make sure you write down all of the symbols in your dream.  These are things such as knives, brooms, cats, birds, snakes, planes, and even people you recall.  Basically, anything or anyone you remember is a dream symbol.

At the end of a week, go back and examine your dream journal.  If you see a series of troubling and upsetting dreams, you can rest assured that your mind is troubled about something.   Your mind is begging for you to find a solution to the drama and the trauma so that it can find peace again.

If your dreams seem to be a series of fear and panic, you are experiencing a great deal of worry and concern in your life.  There is at least one thing you are afraid of happening (or not happening).  When the worry is resolved, your dream self will be less anxious!

Again, please use Dream Prophesy.com as a guide and resource as you begin to study and make sense of your dreams.  If you have a particular dream or dream symbol that you want interpreted, use our search box to find articles and posts related to this subject.  If you still have questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to e-mail me or use the contact form.

    My boyfriend keeps having dreams about me being abusive towards him! A few nights ago he dreamed that he tripped and fell really hard but had to hurry and get up before I found out so I didnt get mad. Then last night he dreamed that I was talking to him while he was brushing his teeth but he couldnt hear me over his electric toothbrush so I took it from him and kept hitting him in the head with it! I think they are comical but at the same time I’m really concerned about them. We have a normal, domestic violence free relationship. We don’t argue, in fact we rarely see each other as we live 4 hours apart. He’s had about 4-5 of these dreams and I dont know why, any ideas? Oh, and you can laugh at the dreams too because I really do think they are funny!

    Ashley, I’m sure these dreams give ya’ll a lot to laugh about! They’re priceless! Actually, this type of dream doesn’t reflect on your relationship negatively, at all. In these types of dreams, the person that the dreamer “stars” in the dream with them is usually the person they are closest to – it’s actually a great sign and a compliment. Hard to believe, I know! But it honestly means you are his number 1.

    When we dream of being a victim – which is what this dream is all about – we realize, on some level that we are “victimizing” ourselves by not living up to our potential in some area. Perhaps we’ve settled for a job in which we know we’re smarter than our own boss (!!!), maybe we’re getting B’s in school when we know darn well we’re capable of straight A’s. Some people dream of being victims when they’ve failed to stand up for or speak up for themselves to a co-worker, family member, or friend.

    There are countless scenarios where we sometimes don’t live up to all that we’re capable of – it happens to all of us. People who are very in-tuned with themselves realize it quickly and their subconscious mind lays it on the line in “victim dreams.”

    More times than not, the dreamer has themselves being the victim to the person they trust more than anyone. I hope these crazy dreams end soon! Thanks so much for sharing – I got a kick out of the dreams!
