    I completely agree that people interpret dreams in accordance with
    their ego. Untill the ego is not deluding the psyche anymore, I
    believe one should utilize as many methods as possible to find out
    what it means. I am on a farely meager budget and cannot afford a
    therapist. I learned this method from a friend a few years ago that
    was seeing a psychiatrist. He told me the method the Dr. told him
    and it has been useful for me. I hope that it can come to use here
    for others.

    I. Write the dream/s first thing in the morning when they are the
    most clear. Almost as if the dream is being dreamed again; reliving
    it actually. Now, after the dream/s is/are written down in full, ask
    yourself the following questions. Go through the dream/s from
    beginning to end with each question, repeatedly asking yourself the
    questions untill you get no more answers for each set.

    1. What body sensations do I feel at this time as I reflect on this
    part of the dream? (this is to be asked for all parts of the dream.
    for each individual part it is to be asked until no more answers come
    to mind).

    2. What emotions am I aware of (come to mind) at this time as I
    reflect... (same as above)

    3. What thoughts am I aware of.....

    4. What does this dream remind me of in life...

    6. What judgements, interpretations, conclusions come to mind

    Using this method (according to my understanding; if its flawed
    please let me know or expand the thought if you have any ideas), you
    get at the physical, astral and mental areas. This way you can get
    at the root of what the dream means so you can understand what is
    going on so as to change something if it is necessary.

    (just had a thought about incorporating this method into my soul
    mirror. Hmm)

    mislead as well as enlighten. I have observed on a few occasions a
    person interpreting one of his or her dreams in a narcisisstic or ego-
    inflating direction, but FAR MORE OFTEN, when left on our own, we
    tend to interpret dreams unfairly to our own detriment. That is, we
    are often way too harsh with ourselves. If you plan to employ
    dreamwork as an important part of your journey toward self-
    understanding, may I recommend that you find a trusted and competent
    friend (or even a professional, preferably a Jungian therapist) to
    help you maintain a sense of balance, and to preserve an attitude of
    mercy and kindness toward yourself.
