In our dreams, we can go anywhere, we can be anybody, and we can do anything.
When we dream, we are mere passengers, Sometimes, dreams can be understood in the
context of repressed thoughts. Dreaming serves as an outlet for those thoughts
and impulses we repress during the day. When we go to sleep at night and slip into
our dream state, we feel liberated and behave and act in a manner that we do not
allow ourselves in our waking life.
Dream interpretations dates back to 3000-4000 B.C. were they were documented in
clay tablets. It is said that people in primal societies were unable to distinguish
between the dream world and reality. They not only saw the dream world as an
extension of reality, but the dream realm was a more powerful world.
Back in the Greek and Roman era, dream interpreters accompanied military leaders
into battle. Dreams were extremely significant and often seen as messages from the
Gods. They were seen in a religious context and in Egypt, priests also acted as
dream interpreters. The Egyptians recorded their dreams in hieroglyphics. People
with particular vivid and significant dreams were believed to be blessed and were
considered special. People who had the power to interpret dreams were looked up
to and seen as divinely gifted. In the Bible, there are over seven hundred mentions
of dreams. Tracing back to these ancient cultures, people had always had an
inclination to interpret dreams.
Dreams were also seen as prophetic. People often looked to their dreams for signs
of warning and advice. It was an oracle or omen from outside spirits, whether it
was a message from a deity, from the dead or even the works of a demon. Dreams
often dictated the actions of political and military leaders and aided in diagnosis
for the medicine men. Dreams was a vital clue for healers in what was wrong with
the dreamer and used them to make a diagnosis. People in ancient Greece and
ancient China looked to their dreams for their next course of action. Dreaming can
be seen as an actual place that your spirit and soul leaves every night to go
and visit. The Chinese believed that the soul leaves the body to go into this
world. However, if they should be suddenly awakened, their soul may fail to return
to the body. For this reason, some Chinese today, are wary of alarm clocks. Some
Native American tribes and Mexican civilizations share this same notion of a
distinct dream dimension. They believed that their ancestors lived in their dreams
and take on non-human forms like plants. They see that dreams as a way of visiting
and having contact with their ancestors. Dreams also helped to point their mission
or role in life.
In the early 19th century, dreams were dismissed as stemming from anxiety, a
household noise or even indigestion. Hence there was really no meaning to it.
Later on in the 19th century, Sigmund Freud revived the importance of dreams and
its significance and need for interpretation. He revolutionized the study of dreams.
