The reasoning behind why you dream what you dream
Dream interpretation is very interesting. Dream interpretation is the process of assigning meaning to dreams. In many ancient societies, such as those of Egypt and Greece, dreaming was considered a supernatural communication. They thought that dreaming was a form of divine intervention, and only people with certain powers could find the underlying truth. In modern times, many schools of psychology have offered theories about the meaning of dreams. Sigmund Freud's theory of dreams is one of the best-known models of dream interpretation.The Interpretation of Dreams, written by Freud suggested that the content of dreams is related to wish fulfillment. Freud believed that the manifest content of a dream, or the actually imagery and events of the dream, served to disguise the true content, or the unconscious wishes of the dreamer. Remembering your dreams can sometimes be a challenge but do you ever think back and wonder what the dreams you remember mean? Or why you only remember certain ones and not others? Many people in the psychology field say that dreams depict the inner feelings you don’t necessarily want to reveal to either yourself or others. Seeing as in you over look them what better place for true feelings to come out in then a dream. A simple internet search can tell you what your dreams might mean. One of the most commonly pondered interpretations is snakes. ” To see a snake or be bitten by one in your dream signifies hidden fears and worries that are threatening you. Your dream may be alerting you to something in your waking life that you are not aware of or that has not yet surfaced. Alternatively, the snake may be seen as phallic and thus symbolize temptation, dangerous and forbidden sexuality. In particular, to see a snake on your bed suggests that you are feeling sexually overpowered or sexually threatened. You may be inexperienced, nervous or just unable to keep up. If you are afraid of the snake, then it signifies your fears of sex, intimacy or commitment. The snake may also refer to a person around you who is callous, ruthless, and can't be trusted. As a positive symbol, snakes represent healing, transformation, knowledge and wisdom. It is indicative of self-renewal and positive change.” (Dream moods).
