What is the language we all share? The universal language of dreams

By

I wrote recently about a forgotten way the soul communicates with us. That way is through dreams. What most people have a difficult time with is trying to interpret the cryptic messages of dreams. The language of dreams is the one thing that humans have shared since the beginning of time. Even before there was a spoken language we dreamed. Before words our physical world was associated with pictures. Many cultures drew pictures on cave walls telling their stories. With the advent of the spoken form of language there came a diminishing reliance on visual communication. The visual reliance diminished even more as we became more verbal with our languages than visual. Our ancestors understood the importance of dreams because they communicated with pictures just as our soul did in dreams. The soul had a common language with its physical incarnation. We have forgotten how to communicate with our soul by not understanding the universal language of dreams.

There are thousands of dream dictionaries online with thousands of symbols and definitions. The universal language of the mind is just that, a language. Any language has a context, a grammar and structure to it. Trying to learn a language from a dictionary is impossible without any knowledge of how to use the words in context or a grammatical structure. It’s the same difficulty many of us have had to deal with in trying to learn dream language. Unless you know someone that intuitively understands the structure of the visual language of dreams it can be a frustrating process. A dream dictionary can be helpful but not when it comes to really understanding the language structure of the dream.

The other problem about interpreting dreams is while there is a universal language many symbols are very personal. For example, in my dreams a dog represents a fear for me. In my physical life I am not afraid of dogs but in my dream life I am often times running from dogs. Usually big dogs. I don’t think a Chihuahua would invoke much fear in me at anytime. All the Chihuahua would have to do in the dream is saysentdiagram “yo quiero taco bell” and I would wake up in hysterical laughter. End of dream. :lol: For another person a dog could be something very calming. The only way to know for sure is to keep a journal of your dreams. You will start to notice symbols and scenarios repeating. Many symbols are personal and a dream dictionary can not always tell you what your personal meanings are.

What I am going to do here is give you a little primer on interpreting dreams with some grammatical structure to it. For the sake of space I will not be able to go into a lot of detail but It will give you a starting point.
Some basics about your dreams.

1. The dream is from the perspective of your soul, which is you. You the soul is communicating from the subconscious to your conscious waking physical self.
2. You, the soul, create every dream and everyone in the dream to send information to your physical waking self. The soul is the director, script writer and producer of the dream. Just as you create your physical reality, you create your dreams. As above, so below.
3. Every person in a dream is about the dreamer and an aspect of the dreamer.
4. The symbols in a dream is the soul telling you what something is LIKE, not what it is. In other words the picture is an association to something in your waking life. For example a dog in my dream is associated with fear. If something is hot then you might see fire associated with it in the dream.

A male in the dream usually is associated with the conscious waking aspect of yourself for a male and subconscious aspect for a female.
A female in the dream is usually associated with the subconscious aspect of yourself male and the conscious aspect of self for a female.

As stated before dreams have a grammar and context to them. I will take the concept of your soul telling you about an idea from beginning level to higher consciousness.

Pregnant = idea being birthed
Baby = new idea
Child = creative developing idea
Teenager = forming of the idea
Parent = a mature idea
Grand parent old or ancient one= wisdom of the superconscious or universal consciousness

Note here the movement through time and how the soul associates time to a stage of human development. Time goes from forming (pregnant) to a developed wisdom represented by grandparents. You can apply this concept of time with many different events in your dreams and many dreams. This is the context or grammar of dreams. The associations are visual not words. A mature idea is like a parent is mature. A new idea is associated with a baby (a new person).

In using this guide you will be able to tell pretty quickly if the dream is about a new idea or one that you may have had from the past or maybe even a past life. Again because of time and space I can’t go into more detail. You can extrapolate the idea grammar to other symbols. For example conscious aspects of yourself. If the person in older than you in your dream it usually means and aspect of your conscious self that is past. If a person is the same age or a contemporary like a sibling, then it is a present conscious aspect of you. to understand the aspect the person represents in the dream, use two words to sum up the personality of the person in your dream. If you do not know the person, it is an unknown aspect of your conscious self.

You don’t even need a dream dictionary to figure out the symbols. Simply figure out the function of the symbol in waking life and associate it to the dream. For example, you dream of a car. What is the function of a car? Maybe to transport you different places? from the perspective of your soul, how does it move from place to place in the physical world? Inside of your body of course! Guess what the car is associated with for your soul? Your physical body! Your soul rides around inside you every day! :) The FUNCTION of a car is to transport you. Associated from the perspective of the soul, physical body. If the radiator of your car is over heating in your dream, drink water. :lol:

Reacquainting yourself and understanding the universal language of the mind can be a wonderful aid in self development. Any answers you need you already know. You tell yourself in your dreams every night. You do travel when you are asleep, every dream is not the same. After keeping a journal for awhile you will start to notice some differences in your dreams. If you are having nightmares it is simply a message that you have previously ignored and now you as a soul are trying to get your attention and let you know that something needs to be done.

Dreams are another great tool for you to understand and use. You are reading this for a reason. Your soul has guided you here to get this information. It wants you to know how powerful of a being you are. You are a soul living a human experience.

Are you a brave soul?

  1. Reginald, this information is very powerful! I have mostly struggled to understand my own dreams. It was actually frustrating knowing that there was something important being communicated, and being unable to read the director’s script. Now I will look at them from another perspective, keeping in mind the language of images and the “function” of the symbol.

    Quite fascinating that before language developed, we were using the same form of communication both at the soul and at the physical level. Thank you for the insights, and I agree, the taco bell chihuahua would make me laugh too! :-)

    Hi Palma, Thank you for your input on the article. I know from personal experience how frustrating trying to understand dream can be. But once I realized how to start understanding the function of the symbols it started to make sense to me. That does not mean I realize them right off, but it gives me a basis to investigate. I also learned that immediately on waking up try and understand that overall meaning of the dream and what it is referring to. Your initial thoughts are usually the most intuitive and correct. That can also help you further define the symbols. I Just recently had a dream chasing away great daines. Since I chased them away that means I was victorious. no chihuahuas. :)

    And thank you for the help in overhauling my website. It looks great! I love that galaxy that looks like the eye of God in the banner. :)

    Wow! Thank you Reginald. Extremely helpful and vital. I see a similarity in the language that we use in our dreams and in the language that is used to communicate to us in the waking world. Subtle and personal. Example: In the waking world there is a large black squirrel that has made his home in my chimney. This squirrel always seems to be in my face. I know that on one level I must call someone to catch it and take it away to another area. But on another level there is a message for me but so far it is just out of reach. I’m looking forward to this adventure. Very exciting to say the least. Maybe using Palma’s prana idea coupled with dreaming and meditating there might be some fun experiences to be had. Could life be this much fun? I’m learning, “Why not!” We all deserve it.

    Hi Reginald. I read it thoroughly and it opened my eyes. My dreams have always been vivid but I didn’t understand. Now I can begin. I asked of Myself to show me and “show me” I’m receiving. I”ve been blessed with vivid dreams all of my life but I didn’t understand. If only I knew the Love that was pouring my way I could have avoided so much pain. The decades have pounded consequences into me and now with tears in my eyes I can see plainly. The misery must surely stop. The pain must stop for everyone. The light of Love is the heritage of every one. Please suffer me this emotional moment on the night of the Summer Full Moon.
