Horse on Your Dream

Sigmund Freud better known as the Father of modern psychology had some very interesting thoughts about dreams. In interpreting dreams Freud made a mark on the minds of many people.

At the point when he first studied the dreams meaning he called the mind at sleep the subconscious. The part of our mind that never really made it into the light of day. But the unconscious itself was not really discovered by Freud, but several other doctors were brought to light by William James in a study of Psychology.

What is my dreams meaning? Last night the dream contained a huge horse walking around in a field, and no matter how much attention was paid to the horse, it never came any closer. Ok so what does that dream really mean? You like horses, or if you look in a dream dictionary that you may feel you are not receiving the attention in life you deserve.

So now you know how Freud went about thinking of what dreams meant. Can this still be the case? Does the unconscious mind still repress feelings that we don't want to get out? And the way they are released is through dreams. It may well be, but do we know for sure?

Now sit back and think about dreams and how many different things can come up in dreams. How can you even begin to imagine what kind of repressed sexual feeling some things mean? Some subjects are very easy to imagine, but others not at all.

But do all dreams really deal with sex? Well some just may, but can a case be made for every dream? No not at all, however some will readily disagree. The horse dream in that case will take on a completely different meaning.

No matter how you look at it though, if you agree with Freud or someone else, it still is a very interesting subject matter. Talking about dreams and what you feel they may mean has always made up hours of fun conversation for many friends. Or lunchtime discussions.

In fact you might want to consider maybe Freud was right in some cases. Not about the sex and all dreams being about that. But in his creation of the Id, and the child inside of all of us. Maybe the dreams are ones desires and dreams coming out. As a dream those desires will not hurt anyone no matter what they are about, but the Id or child inside of us has a ton of fun.


That's all Henry Fong thought.
