In analyzing your dreams, the book "The dream belongs to the dreamer" by Velva Lee Heraty, the technique for analyzing dreams called SSIM is discussed. It means Subjective Symbol Immersion Method. Find the main symbol of your dream, and think about it's abstract meaning. Make three signposts like a plot diagram. The first one is the main symbol you found from your dream. You can do this for more than one symbol, but find out in your mind which symbol is the most important. For signpost 2, write down what the symbol means to you. For signpost three, connect the first two signposts: connect your understanding of the symbol to events in your past, future, and present.

An example: for my reoccurring dream of being at school not having my college schedule of classes and being afraid, first I chose college as the symbol, and interpreted it as my love for learning and knowledge and that I want to be important, and I noticed for signpost three that it happens because I dropped out of college to be an activist. Later, I took the last dream of college which was lucid, and I actually had my college schedule, so I chose the schedule, and not the school, as a more important symbol. I decided that it means that without it, I worry about the person I am going to become in the future, and with it, I have the keys to the person I am meant to be. It is not just about knowing what to learn, but knowing yourself. In this reoccurring dream, I transmuted it by becoming lucid and leaving college, showing that maybe for me college isn't the only form of education and that I can take classes in Heaven and I remembered and had printed out my college schedule this time perhaps because I am more aware of myself, what I want to learn, and that I am an archangel-faerie-elf and know more about me and my future and that school isn't really that important always
