When beginning the steps towards translating your dreams, many of us find it useful to keep a notebook a dream book, if you'll right next to your bed with a pen or pencil.
As fast as you are physically able, commence your book. Note down your dream as shortly as you remember it. Write down everything you remember, regardless of if it isn't making sense. Most frequently, the parts that do not sound correct or are misplaced are the most valuable. Each detail, even the minutest part in your dream is vital and must be considered when researching your dreams. Look closely at the characters, animals, objects, places, feelings, and even color and numbers that are showed in your dreams. Ask, "What does this remind me of?" jot down the first thing that comes to mind.
This could likely be the genuine situation in your life that's designated in the dream.
What did that real-world situation lead you to feel like? If this is the same feeling represented in your dream, you are on the right track.
Often when there's more than one part to your dream ( more than one story line ) that generally means there are two things your subconscious is trying to tell you. Remember that we have between 4 and 7 dreams per night. If you wake up from a dream, jot it down. Don't roll over and return to sleep. If you do not jot it down, you can never remember it in the morning! At the least, you can note down the basic idea of the dream and go back in the morning to fill in the rest of the details like feelings, and so on. Suggest to oneself constantly as you go to sleep, "I am going to remember my dreams." Say this time after time. Your sub-conscious will act on this delicate idea. Practice enthusiastic observation in your dreams thru self-suggestion before sleep. When a difficulty confronts you, you may wish to ask by prayer for steering to be sent to you thru your dreams. Trust your instincts! If something appears important, it likely is. Try not to let your logical side take over. So you have your dreams down on paper. Where do you go next? The very next step would be interpretation.
