We possess within us two minds. So far I have written only of the conscious mind. I would now like to introduce you to your second mind, the hidden and mysterious subconscious. Our subconscious mind contains such power and complexity that it literally staggers the imagination.

The dream mentioned previously in this chapter, and the dreams in the chapter on the subconscious, are all fairly easy to understand and I used them because they clearly illustrate how dreams can guide us. However, because they are so easily decipherable, they are the exceptions. Ninety percent of your dreams will make little or no sense whatsoever. They will seem like nonsense, like a foreign language that you don’t understand.Your dreams are messages sent from your subconscious to you, and as such they are showing you something about yourself. Dreams are always about you and your circumstances—where you are stuck, what you’re avoiding, what you’re missing, what you’re ignoring, where you need to go.

Ninety-five percent of the time all the characters, creatures, monsters and strangers in your dreams represent aspects of yourself. When you go about interpreting a dream assume that all the people in the dream are you (except when you recognize the characters—children, spouse, parents, co-workers, and so forth—and even then they are sometimes you).

Interpreting the dream subjectively, you would first of all assume that you are both the burglar and yourself in the dream. You begin asking yourself questions. What part of me is harming the children? Maybe you feel you’re working too hard and not spending enough time with them. Is your dedication to working long hours perhaps stealing your children from you?

Another interpretation might be that your children are the carefree and innocent part of you, and the burglar is your serious and logical side. Is the “adult” part of you suppressing your natural, easy-going, more spontaneous nature? Perhaps your dream is telling you something is being taken from you by living too much this way. Get the idea?

Remember to avoid translating your dreams too literally. Say you dream you are driving a fast sports car at ninety miles per hour around dangerous curves. You lose control, crash and die. Does this mean you’re going to have a car crash and die? Highly unlikely. It is far more probable that the dream is telling you something much less literal about yourself.
