Plan
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?

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.
