DREAM CONTENT IS NOT ACCIDENTAL

Ever wonder why you dream about a particular item or topic? You pass a store window and see a red shirt and that night you dream about it. Your best friend gets a great new car and a few nights later you dream you have one just like it. Or you see a movie about a fireman rescuing a family, and that night you are a fireman in a dream rescuing a family member.

Is that a coincidence? No, the psyche uses what you encounter every day as a storehouse of images from which to pick, and create into a new message. Whether you saw something yesterday or years ago, the psyche has carefully selected it. Like a game of Charades, it takes one image that has no words and uses it to convey a new meaning to get a message across.
