How the value of our dreams is in the long-term patternsMajor life changes and our dreamsRecording dreams – The importance of  who; what; when, where and howSocial media and dreamsDonald TrumpNightmare and night terrorsWhy not all dreams are meaningful for interpretationDreams that express mythological contentHow to use our dream patterns to recognize patterns in our waking lives
Jonson says: I’ve been studying my own dreams for almost thirty years now.  I was often frustrated in my early years of interpreting my dreams.  Back then, I was following the dream-dictionary approach of almost every book on the subject.  These books ask you to interpret every element of every individual dream to find the meaning of that particular dream.  This usually resulted in incoherent interpretations.
