You could say they're fun in that they're so random, but for once, I would like for a dream to make at least some sense. Is there any way I can use control to achieve this?
I've only used control once since I started trying my hand at it (I closed a door...) and I know I'll have to practice more to get to the level I want, but can y'all supply any advice?
I think if you are looking for a direct "oh I dreamed this and that applies to this" you'll be looking a long time without much to show for it. I do believe normal dreams can be used to learn about your life, especially really abstract ones. It's not gonna be just glaringly obvious usually though. It's like looking at one of those inkblots and saying what you see. It's really just an inkblot, but what you can see in it can say a lot for you because it comes from your personality and psyche. A dream which already comes from inside of your mind, being then analyzed by the same mind that concocted it, there is a lot of you in whatever you come up with. Learning more about yourself is always useful. That's what I think anyway.
Edit: and to go further, obviously lucid dreaming could help you in this regard. Consciousness of yourself in one of your "senseless" dreams would give you the ability to learn from it, without changing it. Instead of going through the strangeness accepting all as you see, perhaps you can find the source of it, or some reason behind it.
