1) A dream shows you a problem or issue that needs to be
resolved. It may show you how you are reacting to the
problem. It may even suggest a solution. For each dream,
ask yourself, "What is the problem? How am I reacting to it?
Is the message suggesting a solution?"

2) Don't underestimate how "deep" a dream may be, even if
it seems silly or simple. When you think that you are all
finished working with a dream, think again. There is
probably more there!

3) Pay attention to the main issues on your mind as you
start to go to sleep, as this will give you a clue as to
what your dream may end up being based on. Also, keeping
your mind on what you want to receive a dream about is a
good way to create one.

4) Try to view the dream from a stranger’s point of view.
What does it say to you? What is the first emotion that
hits you when you look at it?
