Congratulations! You've finally interpreted a dream. Now what do
you do?
If you've gotten this far then you're probably getting better at
remembering your dreams (or at least bits and pieces of them);
you're keeping a dream journal; and you're noticing some patterns
or repeating symbols. Now you're getting better at interpreting
your dreams or at least some of the symbols.
Since the purpose of interpreting dreams is to help you know
yourself better and improve yourself and your life, the next step is
to think about the actions you should take as a result of your new
found insight. You need to develop an Action Plan and include it
at the end of each entry (that you have successfully interpreted) in
your dream journal.
What can you do with this new found knowledge? Have you
discovered that you often remind yourself of your mother when
she scolded you as a child (and you swore you would never be like
her!); then you can make your Action Plan -- I will not say those
words to my child, I will find a better way to communicate. Have
you discovered that you are often shy and allow others to step all
over you? Then your Action Plan might be -- I will stand up for
myself the next time I feel I'm being used.
Your Action Plan will be up to you. In some cases, there may be
nothing you can do but simply know that you have learned
something.
For an idea of how this works -- see my dreams that I have
interpreted -- I have included an Action Plan or explained why
there was none needed on each -- Trees for Two; Water, Water
Everywhere, The Landlord Cleans Up; Cats!; Fire!; A Day at Work;
Shopping For a Bra
Next step -- what role do Colors play in our dreams?
Disclaimer: I do not profess to be an
expert on dreams. I have no degree
in Psychology or any other science.
I profess to be a dreamer -- in every
sense of the word, because I dream
and I have learned to interpret my
own dreams. I make no promises
that I can interpret your dreams. I
merely hope to help you learn to
interpret your own dreams. You are
welcome to learn from my
experiences.
