What Is A Dream Theme?
|
According to the dictionary, a theme is an implicit or recurrent idea; a motif. A dream theme then would be the general subject matter of the dream. What is the dream, in general, about? What activities or emotions recur in this dream?
I would guess that dreams can have more than one theme, since dreams are so incredibly packed with multiple levels of meaning. Here you will be able to help in furthering our understanding of Dream Themes. Are they Universal or personal? Is there only one theme per dream. What does a complete list of Dream Themes consist of?
I recommend you take a look at Patricia Garfield's website, Universal Dreams. She proposes a beginning classification system of Universal Dream Themes. She suggests a group of 12 basic Universal Themes. Perhaps you would be interested in joining her research by completing her survey.
I present here an incomplete list of possible dream themes. Please look them over. Choose one that interests you. Highlight it and click to see all the dreams in the Spinner Software™ database that the dreamer has self identified as having that theme.
When you enter your own dream, there will be an opportunity for you to link your dream to one or more themes.
