Thread: Not a question about particular dream but can dreams mean something more pls read

It's normal to have weird things happen when looking in mirrors.
Dreams aren't really trying to tell you anything. Instead they are just a "mash up" of all of the thoughts inside your head. If you are thinking about "hell" often then your dreams might involve "hell".
Some think that dreams are the minds way of "organizing" things inside your head.
If you take note of typical themes when you have nightmares you can become lucid easier.

I think some dreams are a random mesh up of things, while others are trying to tell you something, and only you can decide which is which. If a dream is really bothering you and you feel that it is trying to tell you something maybe it is. I think one cannot generalize about all dreams: some help provide stress relief while others exacerbate stress, some are meaningful to us and others are meaningless. My dreams recently have been very meaningful to me, but mostly that's because I have been looking for meaning in them, and sometimes I am not sure whether or not the meaning was there before I self interpreted them, but once I analyzed them I discovered meaning in the combination of dream and self interpretation - introspection. I feel that I have gained a better understanding of myself by looking at me through the creative lens of my own dreams. This helps me but I bet the same technique will not work for everyone: for some people it helps more to accept their dreams as meaningless and move on beyond those dreams. Some dreams are better left uninterpretted I think, but that's up to each dreamer to decide for him- or herself.
