DREAM DICTIONARY : This dream dictionary is based upon hundreds of real dreams and has been meticulously researched. However, the only person who can truly identify the cause of a dream is the dreamer. Use the questions and quotes on this page to help you find out what has triggered your dream.

MOVIES : Dreams with movies in will generally link to two types of dreams. If the dream features a real movie then there is something in the story line or actors within it which is relevant within your own day to day life. For instance, a love story may link to some similar situation in your own life or wish for such a situation. A film may feature a story which deals with a theme that you can identify with. Films are full of metaphors and so are dreams. Try to think what you associated with the particular film. Its likely that the symbol is a very personal symbol.

When other movies or cameras appear in dreams then it may link to several other things. Many times we have been replaying an incident over and over again in our minds. Try to think of such issues.

KEY PHRASES(Pick a quote which captures your feelings right now. Think especially of the day before the dream) :
- "I wanted to really replay every last little detail of that incident"
- "when I thought about it again later then..."
- "it really was very special"
- "I wish that things could be like that for me"
- "I am trying to imagine how things will look"
- "I have been really getting into TV and Films recently. Its taking my mind off the boredom of day to day life"

(Now write down some quotes that sum up your thoughts and feelings right now. Concentrate on incidents the day before, paranoias and fantasies, health issues, challenges of the day ahead. Then try to see where the words and phrases above appear in your quotes).
