Some dreams are our subconcious telling us something were afraid of, something we feel guilty of , someone we miss, there are alot of different way to interpert dreams, especially if you are remembering this one, you may take a closer look and try and sort it out.

I looked up the entomology of nightmares and dreams.  \nDreams are sleep or vision or aspirations, all good things.  Nightmares were seen as the indications of something bad, a goblin sitting on the chest of sleeping people causing distress.  So good dreams are normal and so a just called dreams; bad dreams have to be explained and so the idea of nightmares are introduced to explain a problem.

Almost anything is possible or can be encountered in dreams. It is important not to overrate the significance of it and to analyse each dream carefully (or have it analysed by a trained expert).

Freud called dreams "the royal road to the unconscious."  Or was that Jung?  Darn, I'm geting my patriarchs mixed up.\n\nAnyway, according to psychoanalytic theory, dreams are the way the unconscious communicates with the conscious mind, through symbolism.  Thus, interpreting dream symbolism is a way to learn about your deepest self.

I can think of objects in terms of touch, and often do.  And sometimes I dream in scripts, "hearing" the dream as if someone were narrating a movie or even reading from a book.\n\nDreams start out as emotional responses that are translated into the mind's personal symbology.  So if you dream of fear, that may manifest as seeing a gorge as if from a high bridge, or just feeling like someone with a knife has grabbed you.\n\nIf you pay attention to your dreams you may realize that you "see" things that you couldn't possibly see, like someone behind you.

Dreams have all kinds of meanings to them.\n\nThere are several Yahoo groups about dreams you could join.\n\nInterpreting them can be difficult.  I've seen several dream interpretation books but the meanings of the symbols vary greatly. It's all very subjective.\n\nIf you have the kind that are coming true then you certainly have a gift.  Research it some and you will gain great knowledge from them!

Dreams are thoughts.  Often those are pictures and sounds more than they are language.  So I say yes there can be thought without language.

dreams do not always mean what they are about. they are more of subconcious memorys. \nwhat do you do?  what can you do?

dream interrpetation has held alot of people spellbound for a long time and, depending on who you talk to meanings will vary.  But from a psych point of view the standard answer is this...whatever you don't deal with while you are awake, either conciously or unconciously, you deal with in your dreams.  Dreams are sometimes very literal and sometimes more sybollic but they are always about and deal with stuff in your life.  Some are warnings some are answers and some are nothing.  Depends on YOU and what is going on in YOUR life.

everyone dreams whether they remember their dreams or not is another matter. dreaming is an essential brain function that allows people to function normally during the day. studies have shown that people that were prevented from dreaming did not function correctly or started to have illusions while awake.

The most recent studies in dreams say that YOU are the best interpreter for your dreams. Animals and objects in dreams probably don't have universal meaning for everyone. Dreams tend to reflect your life and emotions. So, what in your life does that relate to? Are you going through anything where you feel like you have no escape or are in serious danger? Look at your life and you'll find what your bull means.

Dreams are of our subconscious mind, therefore they may seem distorted to some, but in actuality are very real parts of our being.  They can be strongly influenced we are facing strong emotions in our life - hence giving you the very real sense of your senses in your dream.  There have been many times that my husband has had to wake me as I was running and crying - left over results of an alcoholic, abusive marriage- he has learned to wake me slowly and gently and then remind me of my surroundings.  So some can be bad.  He also knows there is one where I somewhat purr and he talks to me and I tell him later, that I have to lie at the alter of the Lord and I'm to ashamed to offer any more than this.  He then goes back off to sleep and says within minutes I'll be up writing a story book or poetry or a letter to someone based upon my time in the dream.  Our subconscious can often be a safe outlet for what we cannot consciously do.  Those around us, like my husband have to learn this.  Several times he has woke cussing terrible and swinging his arm and pointing his finger and as I've listened he's been given his Dad what for - something he can't feel he can do in person. So dreams do not have "dream book" meanings - they have meanings to you as an individual.  God will reveal them to you if you ask him. and if he doesn't, then I've learned I don't need to know.

Dreams are a mix of things that have happenned to u along with fears.  They all kinda blend together and make up some weird old dreams don't they?  Ive heard if u dream about your teeth falling out- it means u feel like u have no control over whats going on in your life.  I just think its a weird mix of past and present things going on in your life!  Does that really mean Ive been to the Bahamas naked on a beach with Toby Keith?  GOD I WISH!  lol

Your question assumes that dreams have a meaning. Personally, I see them as random biproducts of our brain's biochemistry. It's true that most dreams can be interpreted to have some kind of meaning; with a little creativity, pretty much every story, song, or work of art can be given an infinite amount of meanings. The reason dreams are hard to understand is that they weren't really meant to have a message in the first place.
