Steckel once noticed that only those who successfully passed the exam would dream this kind of dream, but those who failed the exam would not. We might as well understand this kind of anxiety in this way. The exam dream seems to be searching for some kind of anxiety in the past. In fact, this kind of situation is extremely illogical or inconsistent with the facts. The dream is beneficial. This incompatibility constantly comforts us not to be afraid of doing things badly. Look at how anxious we are before the exam. Didn’t it all be thrilling?
I had an exam dream, which is a good example. I never passed the forensic exam when I read it, but I was very lucky in the plant animalization exam. Coincidentally, I never dreamed of the forensic exam, but I often dreamed of the latter three exams that made me anxious. I used to dream about the history exam and dreamed that I had done very well in the exam. Actually, I did something on the answer sheet to suggest that the teacher should show mercy. The bodhisattva-hearted teacher just let me go. This anxiety experience has been preserved and has to appear in my dream. A neurotic patient once told me a similar case. He was lucky enough to pass the first entrance examination, but later he failed in the military school examination. He often dreamed of taking the entrance examination, but the military school examination never happened.
Not long ago, I updated my understanding of this kind of dreams. We often defend ourselves in my dreams. I have actually passed these exams and achieved success. I recently found that these words are not simple words of comfort, but they also express a kind of responsibility. Now that I am old, I still have to do these childish things. This mixture of comfort and responsibility constitutes this kind of exam dreams. If my inference is true, we can explain those stupid and childish words in my dreams. Unfortunately, I am limited to the lack of relevant materials. My explanation can stop here.
Chapter VI Dream Machine One Concentration
The first characteristic of a dream is that it is condensed, short, poor, concise and hidden, but rich. A dream can be written in a few words to explain it, but it takes ten times as much space, and we can never guarantee that we have finished explaining the dream. If we continue to dig deeper, we can always find more things. Strictly speaking, concentration seems endless.
People recognize that dreams are quickly forgotten. We can recall a small part of dreams, but most of them are forgotten. Therefore, we recognize that dreams are more than memories, but this is actually an illusion. I will discuss this problem in the later chapters. Actually, this possibility will not affect our assumption that most dreams have been lost, and we have lost some other dreams. Worse still, it is likely that memories are closely related. We can speculate through residue.
Another question for dream analysts is that we can give a lot of different explanations for dream fragments. Can these after-the-fact associations be regarded as the true meaning of dreams? Are we sure enough to prove that these associations have entered our hearts before going to bed? It is true that the possibility of dreams being polluted in after-the-fact analysis is indeed in the after-the-fact explanation. However, the analysis process is not in the middle of the dream interpretation. When we are faced with a lot of materials, it is precisely because of these new connections that the dream has been docked. These new connections must have been in before the dream, and they may reflect some deeper connectors.
What does this kind of connector look like? Are ideas happening at the same time or one after another, or are they merged by a large group of sequential ideas? We know that we are going to discuss the subconscious state of mind, and we can easily distinguish it in the process of self-observation with consciousness.
After-the-fact analysis shows that a very small part of the hidden is now in the dream, so we have completed the concentration process by assuming that the dream is hidden by abridgement, that is to say, the dream has not been faithfully translated or projected, but has been partially recovered. Of course, my research has proved that this assumption is not complete. Let’s continue our discussion. We might as well send this temporary conclusion.
The next question is that few hidden things can enter dreams, so what are the conditions for dreams to choose them? Let’s analyze several examples and carefully accept their characteristics.
A plant dreams
We have made an in-depth analysis of this example in chapter 5, which is mainly
I once wrote a book about a certain plant, and I put it in front of me and turned it to a page of color illustrations, which had been folded up with a dried plant label in it, which seemed to be taken from the plant label book.
The most prominent element of this dream is the plant work. As I said earlier, I saw a plant work of Primulaceae in the shop window that day, but my dream ignored the details of Primulaceae and kept the concept of plant work. This concept immediately reminded me of my graduation thesis, and then successively reminded me of Professor Gardner, a literary editor of cocaine. At the same time, I also thought of Dr. Gniech Stein, who must have contributed to the promotion of cocaine. This reminded me of our conversation that night. I considered my colleagues paying for medical treatment at that time. This is the real source of dream hiding. The dream of Primulaceae was chosen and kept, and the second half became a bridge
The plant works were further decomposed into two parts, which gradually went deep into the complicated dream through number connection. Professor Gardner and I talked with Dr. Gniech Stein, and Mrs. Flora L became a logical and clear clue. Mrs. L reminded me of my wife’s purchase of flowers, which led to my favorite flower, artichokes, and I bought hobby plants. It also reminded me that I helped the principal mark the experience in Dali in the middle ages, and an exam paper reminded me of my friend’s letter and my purchase hobby. Two concepts led to number association, and finally I met with Dr. Gniech Stein.
Some details in the dream are also worthy of our careful recollection. Folding color illustrations led to a new topic, which led me to think of my hobby. My colleagues criticized me for tearing up my childhood and drying up the plant label, which reminded me of the mid-term plant label.
Through surface analysis, it can be found that plants have two conceptual elements, and a large number of ideas are connected, so they have to enter the dream. They have played a connecting role, and the dream has hidden the meeting place. They have appeared in my dream many times and also played a versatile role in post-event analysis. Each conceptual element is connected to hide different parts, and each part can be hidden at the same time, and the connection can be found in multiple conceptual element surfaces.
Analysis here, I try to sum up that after the dream is revealed and hidden, an individual manipulates the process of pre-selection, allowing those elements that can best reflect his will to enter the dream and hide, and can infiltrate his will into every element, and compare this process to the election of a national power machine. Then it is not a democratic way to elect members from various constituencies, but a dictatorial way to designate each member. The elements revealed in the dream are inextricably linked with the manipulation behind the scenes.
Two dreams.
This is a dream case of a claustrophobic. In his dream, many ideas were intricately linked. He dreamed that a group of us were performing in the street, a car and a hotel on the street. I was an audience and an actor. After the play, we had to change our clothes and return to the city. Some people were taken to the building, while others were taken to the building. My brother was in the building and I was in the building. At this time, everyone suddenly quarreled because the people in the building had not changed their clothes. This made them angry. Brother, they were too impatient. This part of the description is vague, which makes me very angry. The staff arrangement of the building has been decided in advance, and then I walked alone along the street in the direction of the city. I had to go through a hillside, and I felt breathless and seemed to be unable to move. I remember this paragraph very clearly. After an elderly gentleman came over and insulted the Italian king, I walked very easily.
I start with the part that the patient remembers most clearly that he felt very difficult when climbing the mountain. The description of the patient’s difficulty when climbing the mountain made me feel very relaxed after reaching the top of the mountain. I can’t help but think of a passage in Sappho by alfin Stouder, which describes a young man holding his mistress’s building. The more he climbs the other person’s body, the heavier he gets. This passage means that young men should not easily make a lifelong commitment with his humble body and his background, or their emotional life will become more and more difficult. As far as I know, the patient once became entangled with an actress, and the actress’s status was very low.
Of course, I’m not sure whether this intuitive judgment is true. After all, I associate the plot with the patient’s description, but the patient’s answer is very unexpected. The day before he dreamed, he saw a famous Vienna tour, and I guessed the plot exactly the same.
Later, the analysis focused on the actress exhibition. The actress did live in the street, but there was no hotel at the root of the street. The patient told me that they had spent the night in a small hotel in Vienna. He clearly remembered telling the car rental driver that I was lucky that no fleas were found here. This is a kind of creature that he was afraid of. The driver replied that this was not a hotel but an inn.
The word inn reminds him of a poem. Recently, I lived in an inn. The owner is very kind. In the poem, the owner refers to an apple tree, which reminds him of another Faust witch dialogue poem. Before that, I had a beautiful dream. Now, in my dream, two beautiful apples are shining. I was attracted by it and climbed to the tree. Obviously, two apples mean that women fascinate patients in their dreams. It may be the beautiful breasts of actresses.
Of course, the impression of breasts may also imply that a childhood nurse’s breasts are like an inn for a baby. From this perspective, it is very likely that Sappho described that instead of holding a woman’s building, a woman held a man to climb the stairs. This situation may happen in a nursing mother’s baby, so I can conclude that the dream is hidden and the sex of the bottom people is very dangerous.
So what does it mean for the patient to have an impression on his brother in his dream? As far as I know, his brother has declined. According to Viana dialect, patients are very taboo about the word building when describing their dreams. Therefore, this part of the inversion is bound to hide something. Sappho’s topic implies that the dream building may also imply some sexual fantasies. This repressed desire is also very related to the patient’s neurosis. My brother may be a representative of rival in love. In this dream, others will visit Vienna, and the concepts such as sucking babies are linked.
The total analysis of this dream once again proves that the dream is hidden in the multi-linked dream concentration. After the realization of this multi-linked dream, it is like a string of clues to pull the dream behind. Compared with Emma’s case, her visual image has not changed, but it contains many meanings. Her attitude comes from another patient with a gentle attitude. Her diphtheria symptoms represent my eldest daughter and a patient with the same name. Her tuberculosis symptoms represent a child in the children’s hospital. When I think of many people because of Emma, their images are not actual. Therefore, Emma is actually a combination of images and has become a combination of other characters.
Dr. M is another compound image. I have described him as pale, limping and clean-shaven. Except for his pale face, the other two characteristics actually belong to my eldest brother. A compound way overlaps with a stranger.
Image combination and image combination are two important ways to realize dream concentration. Through them, every revealing element is endowed with a lot of hidden meanings by dreams. Only when more hidden elements are collected can they be qualified to enter dreams. Many of them echo each other and become a bridge leading to dreams. This situation is most obvious in the vocabulary name. According to my experience, all kinds of strange words in dreams will help us find many hidden ones. We should pay special attention to this in dream interpretation.
Chapter VI Dream Machine II Transplantation
In the process of explaining dreams, I also found a strange phenomenon, in which the main elements of dreams are different in hiding, that is to say, the essence of dreams is hidden in dreams, and the roots are not shown, which means that dreams seem to be able to throw away those hidden things and set up doors.
In the dream of plants, it is obvious that the center is a plant, but the hidden note is me. Dr. Gniech Stein talks about the concept element of plants, which has no place in hiding. In uncle R Joseph’s dream, the beautiful beard reveals that the center seems to be a dream, and I am ambitious and desire.
All these situations seem to indicate that there is a transplant in the dream. This unpredictability surprises me. Generally speaking, there is a special outburst in some concepts. We usually think that this dominant concept has a very high value in this group of concepts and put it in a prominent position, but in the dream, there are different situations, which are dominant, hidden but ignored in the disclosure, and replaced by those important elements.
What is the hidden element of a dream? We seem to be able to find the answer to the question by connecting it to concentration and multiple connections. We might as well assume that it is not those who occupy an important position in hiding, but those who appear more frequently. The more a concept is connected and hidden, the greater the chance it will be in a dream. Of course, this assumption is untenable because for a conceptual element, the multi-value and high quality are inseparable, and the concept with the highest value in hiding is bound to appear the most in the disclosure, but actually these high-value concepts are rejected by dreams.
In order to solve this problem, we must consider it from another angle. In the process of dream interpretation, we always record a number of factors from the dream, which cause associations, so each element will inevitably appear frequently in the hidden. I found that many factors are actually artificial inserts to meet a certain purpose. This kind of insert is far from the core of the dream. They also seem very reluctant to delete some of them in terms of connecting and revealing the hidden. If they are of low value, they will lose their attachment to themselves and even lose their qualification to enter the dream. Therefore, in the process of deciding whether they can enter the dream, the multiple associations play an auxiliary role, which may actually be an unknown spiritual force
Therefore, I want to give another one a better look. Suppose that in the process of dream selection, a spiritual force occurs. On the one hand, it eliminates the intensity of elements with high value, on the other hand, it facilitates the multiplicity of elements, and selects some elements with lower value and gives them new value. In this process, a value transfer transplant is produced, resulting in revealing hidden differences. This transplant also occupies a matching position in the process of dream formation.
What exactly is this mysterious spiritual power? Careful observation reveals that the dream exposure of transplantation is different from hiding this quality, or it is a disguise of subconscious desire. Therefore, this spiritual power is very similar to that of transplantation, and it is still affected by the inspection.
From this, we can deduce the second condition for hidden elements to enter dreams. They must be able to escape dreams. We will discuss the issue of which is stronger or weaker in transplanting multiple connections later.
Chapter VI Dream Machine Three Dreams Expression Means
The materials we got from the dream interpreter can be roughly divided into two categories: one is the core part of the hidden, but they can’t directly enter the dream because of the dream inspection, and the other is the necessary channel to connect the hidden and reveal. The dream interpreter relies on their association to find the hidden part.
