De-coding and understanding our dreams

Our dreams are a gateway to our subconscious mind. We cannot easily tap into our subconsciousness during our wakeful state and yet it is the subconscious mind shaped by childhood experiences and past life aspects that drive our beliefs, ideas, perceptions, behaviours and decisions. 

Our dreams give us insight and understanding as to why and with what we have been struggling over the previous few days leading to the dream. They help us to find resolution to existing concerns. Our subconscious mind prioritises what needs our attention by bringing it to the forefront of our dreams, much like our conscious waking mind helps us to prioritise our daily tasks. 

Our dreams are a rich and largely untapped potential for many of us. They allow us to gain insight and resolution to difficult circumstances. They send us messages in the form of symbology – so that we can find solutions if we know what to look for.  

Ways in which we can decode our dreams:

 1. Upon waking, identify which emotions you are feeling. If they are negative then try to link them to recent events over the last few days. For example, if you are feeling fearful - what happened recently to trigger that fear within you?

2. Remember the story line of the dream. This will give you insight into your current emotional state. For example -  if you dreamt that your husband/wife/partner cheated on you, you may be feeling betrayed by something or someone at the moment.

3. Another way to understand our dreams is to look at the symbolism of the dream. We often dream of seemingly random objects which often make no sense to us. However, when we start to decode them and piece them together, they become a powerful source of information and guidance for us. 

4. Take each symbol that you dreamt about in your dream and think about what it means to you or what feelings it evokes for you. Each symbol will represent an aspect of yourself that you probably need to either enhance or release more of.

5. Use a dream dictionary to help interpret the symbology of your dreams –

It is important to be discerning about how you interpret each symbol! If you resonate with the meaning then it is probably the correct interpretation for you and vice versa.

  • For example - we might dream of a dog. For one person, a dog may represent loyalty, a friend for life, something trustworthy. But for another person, a dog might represent something that is ferocious, angry and aggressive. 

  • When interpreting that symbol therefore, the dog may mean that you are being a little too aggressive at the moment or that you may need to surround yourself with trustworthy, supportive and loyal friends.

Repetitive dreams

Both adults and children can experience recurring or repetitive dreams. They tend to be more common for children and we may have dreamt of monsters or people chasing us; insects in the bed and dreams that generally brought up alot of fear for us as a child. This simply means that we were doing a lot of processing and clearing at that time.

If you have children that are waking up regularly and still feeling the fear of the nightmare, then talk to them as though the dream is still going on. You could say something along the lines of: ‘Let’s build a wall so the monster can’t get to you’. Use their very active imagination to help them weave a different scenario and change the dream.
