Understanding Your Dreams
Remember that dream symbols are personal. While universal meanings exist, your own associations with symbols matter most. Consider:
- What emotions did you feel in the dream?
- What's happening in your waking life?
- What personal associations do you have with the symbols?
- Are there recurring themes in your dreams?
Note: Dreams are highly personal. Use this interpretation as a starting point, but trust your own intuition about what your dreams mean to you!
