Do dreams have meaning? Already well, we're halfway to success! However, in this case raises questions of interpretation method. The origin and reputation of Mr. Dream - doubtful. The psychoanalytic view of dreams is special. Dreaming recognizes a full product of mental functioning, and the interpretation of dreams becomes a "royal road" to the unconscious. In this "strangeness" of dreams is understood as the result of psychological censorship that distorts the dream thoughts. So there is a distinction between "explicit" content of the dream - that we remember after waking up and we can tell, and "hidden thought" the dream - the reconstruction and the articulation of which is actually the work of dream interpretation. The Interpretation of Dreams held in several stages and is subject to certain rules. First and most important rule is: the interpretation of dreams in psychoanalysis is a therapeutic procedure and is carried out if necessary to achieve the therapeutic (in the broadest sense) effect. The Interpretation of Dreams - for the love of art - in real psychotherapeutic process is meaningless, and may even do harm. The next rule - the interpretation of dreams without the dreamer is not carried out! The fact is that to adequately understand or that dream images can only be - just putting it in the personal context of the dreamer. If I had a table and you, too, had a table that does not mean that we think about the same. If I ask you, what comes to mind when you think of the table, you may remember her birthday yesterday, the company at the table, etc. My desk is possibly a desk at which I now write this article, etc. This idea is called 'associations to the elements of the dream. Proper psychoanalytic interpretation of dreams is based on free association of all the fragments of dreams. If, for any - reason to collect the dreamer's associations is not possible, the interpretation should not be carried out. From this follows the requirement of full-time psychoanalytic presence dreamer at the time of interpretation. All others, including Horoscopes, and on-line methods of dream interpretation is not correct, and are on a scale from pole misconceptions and lack of professionalism to the pole of intentional fraud, deceit, and profanity. The results of the interpretation of dreams in psychoanalysis are not limited to a single function, such as predicting the future (so-called. "Prophetic dreams"). Psychoanalysts, most people think of the performance of desire, and intrapsychic conflict is dramatized in the dream. The dream can be interpreted in the "object" or "subjective" level. If I had a neighbor my uncle John, Joe, how does that mean? If I decide that I must find out the relationship with his uncle Vasya - I realize his dream to "object" level, as relevant here in this real uncle Basil. If I ask myself, "not" live "in me, in my soul a character like Uncle Vasya - I, thus, closer to the interpretation of the" subjective "level.
