Why Dreams are Bizarre
People often wonder: if dreams are trying to teach me something, why are they so bizarre or different from ordinary experience? As another sensory organ or way of taking in experience, dreaming allows us to explore conflict and rehash events so we can make necessary changes.
Comprehensive Guide to Dreams
There are patterns that appear in all dreams that present conflict and the pathway to its resolution. The 3 parts of a dream become recognizable when you notice how a dream setting 'morphs' into another landscape.
Common Symbols: Animals
Animals and Reptiles appear commonly in dreams as we explore our 'uncivilized' and more natural desires that continuously seek expression. Autonomous areas of the mind and our emotional responses can be symbolized by the various natural creatures that appear in our dreams.
Common Symbols: Houses
During the holidays, we return home to reconnect with the roots of who we are. Dreaming of being in a house offers a similar symbolic setting in that houses in dreams represent our inner architecture and the foundation of our beliefs.
Common Symbols: Vehicles
One of the most common themes explored through dreaming is the idea of motivation, autonomy and self-direction. Since we associate going forward with symbols of transportation, we will often dream of vehicles and transportation symbolism to explore how we are moving through life.
Common Symbols: People
Believe it or not, one of the most difficult symbols to interpret when approaching our dreams - is the way in which other people appear. Every night the mind plays its charade game where everything is a reflection of us.
What Guides our Dreams?
There are many theories that explain why we dream, although one aspect continues to present us with a mystery. What is it that guides our dreams? Join Kari Hohne as she explores Freud's idea of the Id, Jung's writings about the Self, natural processes and spiritual perspectives that can help us understand the guiding mechanism of our dreams.
Metaphors in Dreams
Dream interpretation requires that we begin to see ordinary symbols in a more profound way. Dreams are very similar to how poems pack intense meaning into one symbol that can at first appear out of place. Join Kari Hohne in this podcast that explores how understanding metaphor allows us to gain valuable insight into dream symbols.
