Dream interpretation is the process of assigning meaning to dreams, which are a series of thoughts, images, and sensations occurring in a person's mind during sleep. Many cultures and psychological theories suggest that dreams can reflect our subconscious thoughts, emotions, and experiences. By analyzing the symbols and themes in dreams, individuals may gain insights into their waking lives.
Various methods exist for interpreting dreams, including Freudian analysis, which focuses on repressed desires, and Jungian psychology, which emphasizes archetypes and collective unconscious. Some people use dream dictionaries to find meanings for specific symbols, while others prefer personal reflection to understand their unique dream experiences.
