What are the real meanings of dreams? Do they really mean anything? If I've dreamed about hurting people in my dreams am I sick? They are all questions that can be asked by several people. Those people who look into dream interpretation, and some that make it their gospel even.

But do many remember what they have dreamt at night? There are many times that you may remember the dream for a bit, but as you wake up more and the day goes on, you may also completely lose what you've dreamt about. In that case, should you even worry about what a dream means?

To a lot of people out there dreams are the ways they get ideas. Heck writers love to have a dream that may lead to the next great novel. Painters are the same way, they could have dreamt up the next Mona Lisa!

Does this mean that people who dream about murder are bad? Heck no, in fact if you take some B12 you may even experience some very vivid dreams; ones like you never have before.

How can that work though? Since each person has different ways that they have been raised, and different sets of priorities. Not only that but not everyone has the same desires, so dreams will be different. A poor person may constantly dream of wealth, just because they want money, it's a desire.

If you're a fan of Sigmund Freud or have ever studied any psychology you will know what his thoughts on dreams were. It's funny but all the meanings that he came up always had to do with some sort of hidden sexual feeling the person suffered from. Though it might have had a bit to do with his proclivity to snort Cocaine! Freud was a brilliant man yes, and his ideas were great, but do all dreams deal with sex? No.

However, if you look back in history the thoughts of what dreams mean have changed. As society changes and technology advances people dream about different things.

Dreams of death use to mean that a birth was imminent, while dreams of birth meant death. However if you look at the meanings now they are completely different. Which do you side with?

Finally though it is fun to find out what a dream may possibly mean, it doesn't mean that it true. Depending on your school of thought you may think completely different. Just have fun with it.
