Do you believe dreams have meanings?

Answer 1

Many dreams, are so strange and interesting that it feels like they must have some deep meaning or important messages. The experts have very different opinions about this.
Some believe that dreams aren't connected to our real emotions or thoughts. Other dream specialists think that what we see in our dreams has very specific meaning for our life. Dreams, they feel, are like a window into our deepest desires and biggest fears, and interpreting our dreams (trying to find the hidden meaning) can help us figure out what's really going on in our brains and our lives. In this theory, a dream is a direct message from your mind, telling you about problems that need to be solved, fears that need to be put to rest, or goals that need to be followed.

Many dream researchers have views that are somewhere in between these two opinions. Dreams, they say, are not always filled with meaning. Sometimes dreams are just your mind playing with thoughts and images from your life, or things you may have read or seen on TV. But other times, dreams are a special opportunity for you to make sense of your life, especially things that you want to achieve, or things that cause you trouble or stress.

Many dream experts agree that recurring dreams, dreams that you keep having over and over, probably have some sort of special meaning. Even if you consider most of your dreams to be strange stories that don't relate to your normal life, it could be that a dream that keeps reappearing is trying to tell you something. You might want to try remembering the details of a recurring dream and making sense of what it might be telling you.

Answer 2

Yes I do...no matter what the experts say about dreaming they must have meaning. They seem to be the way the mind helps us relive the past and find out that there are ways to cope with lifes daily troubles or relive the great days. Even the dreams of the impossible, well better to have them then not ever experience them. Sometimes though I don't understand alot of them and it gives me things to think of at work. Like where did that come from or being able to tell a friend about one and laugh about it.

Answer 3

Yes, I do believe that dreams have meanings. Some of them serve as signs of what will happen to you or other people in the future. An example of this is that if you dream that your teeth are falling out, this might be a sign of death.

Answer 4

Some yes I do, many with me and most I am lucky to be able to see what they are, took me a long time to learn to read them correctly and believe they meant something rather than let them go as just dreams. I see what they are more than what they mean, I learn that afterwards, sometimes months and even years later.

Answer 5

I think they do. They help you figure things out and such. Though sometimes when I wake up, I simply think "wow, that was a strange dream." I don't always worry about figuring out the meaning of my dreams. I usually only do that if I am seeking a solution to something.

Answer 6

yes if the same dream appears repeatedly then it has some meaning .sometimes it can be something that will happen to u in future n some times it is only reflective of wt is in ur conscious n subconscious.

Answer 7

Definitely, they are from subconsicous minds. Even if they show no sign of meanings. it may just mean it's based on our actual event, meida effect and affected by what you experience in day time. Sometimes, it is like a recorder playing back what you see in reality

Answer 8

Answer 9

Yes, and their meaning is: simply a bunch of stuff that's on your conscious or unconscious mind.
