What do dreams mean?
Dictionary.com defines dream as, "A series of images, ideas, emotions, and
sensations occurring involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep."
But, what do dreams mean? Dreams are compilations of
events happening throughout your life that you would otherwise not be aware of.
Emotions that people go through, and subconscious thoughts come out during your
dreaming hours. Although it is very rare, some dreams give foreshadowing
of the future, but do not predict the future.

The Stages of Sleep
Before you understand your dreams you need to understand the dream and sleeping process. Opinion varies with sleep stages, but those involved with Daily Dreams believe that there are four stages of sleep in which brain activity changes throughout the night.
Stage 1
Studies show a 50% reduction
in brain activity between being awake and stage 1. The eyes are closed
during this stage, and if aroused a person may feel as if her or she has not
slept. This stage may last for 5 - 20 minutes.
Stage 2
Brain waves during this period
fluctuate rapidly which indicate the periods of muscle relaxation. The
heart rate slows and body temperature decreases as the body prepares for a very
deep sleep.
Stage 3
Brain waves during this stage
slow down considerable. It is more difficult to wake the sleeper from this
stage.
Stage 4 or REM
Stage 4 occurs after
approximately 30 minutes of sleep and after about 20 minutes into stage 4, the
sleeper falls into the NREM, or Non-Rapid Eye Movement part of the stage where
dreams begin to occur. After about 10-20 minutes in the REM stage, the
sleeper starts to drift back through the stages. This cycle can repeat
itself several times during the sleep process until the dreamer is in the actual
REM part of the stage where the most vivid dreams occur.
A sleeping process may vary but
usually looks like this:
Stage 1
Stage 2
Stage 3
Stage 4
Stage 3
Stage 2
REM
Why should you have your dreams interpreted?
This is probably the biggest question. Most do not
understand why we dream and what effects dream interpreting can have on oneself.
Dream interpreting can give insight into many different
aspects of one's life. It can show you how to deal with stressful
situations during real life and can show you which parts of life need to be left
alone. Dreams are the dimension in which emotions and situations that we
need or want to take part in, run wild!
They can help us deal with moral situations as well as fears
and coping with dying.
There are too many people who are scared about the dreams
that they have, and this is the place to let those fears get lost.
How are dreams interpreted?
Dreams
occur about many different situations and can be short or long. To each
person symbols in a dream can mean different things in accordance to the symbols
surrounding it. It is important when having dreams interpreted that the
dreamer must include all information about the dream. Emotions, colors,
and quality of items in the dream, all play a big part in the interpretation.
Although the interpreter does not understand the feelings
that the dreamer has, with all this information, it is easy to give the dreamer
more insight into their dream. However, it is up to the dreamer to
understand the situations that occur in dreaming because they know the
situations that are going on in their life.
