Well according to some dreams are messages about what needs to be fixed in your life. Others like psychologist most notably freud and jung believe dreams are the minds way of 'working out' certain things especiallly repressed things. The repressed things cause problems in the mind so in order to return to a healthy homeostasis dreams are created by the mind to work these out. It must be done in dreams since the waking mind represses them. The waking mind is able to help it along if it knows this. The dreams however will use symbolism to bypass what they called the moral censor. If it was obvious and upfront the mind would reject it upon waking. For example a man with repressed homosexual tendicies will have dreams of symbolic homosexual relations. Like there was an example of a repressed homosexual french man having dreams of picking strawberries with another man. Picking strawberries was an old french idiom for having sex. To give you an idea of what i mean.

while I find that intriguing I usually have dreams that are like movies so Im not entirely aure what they would mean. Maybe I should ask the next time a dream thread rolls around?
