Understanding Your
Dreams
by Ken Asselin |

The meaning of dreams has been of interest to mankind throughout
history. Dreams come to us in a variety of forms that range from
frightening to erotic. We experience images, sounds, sensations,
and voices in our dreams that we are unable to influence or
control. Do our dreams have special meanings? Are they brought
on by incidents that have affected our lives today or possibly
sometime in the past?
There are many theories why we dream, where in the brain dreams
originate, or even why dreams occur at all. It is not clear what
the neurological cause is, or in what phase of sleep dreaming
takes place. Many believe dreams are reflections of the
unconscious and some that they are predictions of the future or
even messages from God. Dreams often inspire artistic and other
forms of inspiration. Many dreams of a bizarre or strange nature
have been interpreted by some as divine gifts, messages from the
past, or predictions of the future.
According to most scientists dreams occur with equal frequency
in most people. The ability to recall the dream varies greatly
with individuals however. Most dreams it is believed occur
during the (REM) sleep, which is a form of sleep that is
experienced in the latter portion of the sleep cycle.
According to http://www.wicipedia.orghttp://www.dreams.budsbestbuys.com
, both Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung identify dreams as an
interaction between the unconscious and the conscious. Jung
argued that the dream's bizarre quality is an efficient
language, comparable to poetry and uniquely capable of revealing
the underlying meaning. While Freud felt there was an active
censorship against the unconscious even during sleep. They both
agreed that the unconscious mind is the dominant force of the
dream.
Lucid Dreams
Many books, charts, dream dictionaries, and even dream software
programs are available today for those wishing to understand the
meaning of their dreams. The most popular and by far the most
intriguing books are about lucid dreaming. A lucid dream is one
where the dreamer recognizes they are in a dream and can take
control of it. Lucid dreamers have the power to control their
dreams and are capable of creating many fantasies such as making
new objects appear, change their form, or even fly. There are
many forms of lucid dreams, having in common the fact that at
some point in the dream the dreamer recognizes the experience as
a dream. While lucid dreaming has been proven to exist, frequent
lucid dreaming requires much practice and dedication. Many
people practice specific techniques of lucid dreaming for
personal or spiritual purposes.
