When it comes to understanding dreams, there are several ways of doing so. You can use the Dream Dictionary to check the meaning behind your dream and the astrological link it has. Another way is by tackling recurring dreams, which is a separate topic that has its own steps. However, the other popular method of understanding dreams is via dream deconstruction.
These kinds of dreams are collectively known as precognitive dreams. They have helped many people get a glimpse of their future, enabling them to prepare for great opportunities and scary dangers. Precognitive dreams have been working hand-in-hand with astrology horoscopes and astrology birth charts to show people's future to help them choose the best paths in their lives.
The very basis of deconstructing a person's dream might sound implausible at first. However, many experts and their corresponding studies worldwide have proven that there is a way to deconstruct one's dream to understand its meaning entirely.
The term itself, namely "deconstruction," is used to break down things, ideas, philosophies, and even texts. It does it by checking each part of the broken down (deconstructed) elements to understand the whole picture. This process is no different when it comes to dream deconstruction.
There are three known phases of deconstruction, which are listed below and explained:
Creation - As its name suggests, everything is created at this point of the said process. Do take note that during a complete deconstruction, there are steps that the dreamer will need during the overall process, and they will start again at this point. When it comes to dreams, this will be when the dreamer tries to remember the dream's crucial details in question. These include what kind of
Once you complete all of those steps, it can be considered a successful dream deconstruction. As mentioned earlier, you can repeat the whole process from the start to understand one's dream and its meaning.
The deconstruction process isn't strictly meant for dreams only, as you can also use it for nightmares, the dream's bad twin. However, this kind of process is heavily related to understanding many types of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and various cases of Sleep Disturbances.
Most people suffering from both nightmares and sleep disturbances caused by PTSD are military personnel, war veterans, service members, and various civilians who had traumatic experiences in their lives. Of those mentioned people, an average of 50% to 70% will suffer either symptom (or sometimes both in some cases) during their lifetime until treated or receiving regular therapy sessions.
People who are affected can have sleep debt experiences, wherein it can severely affect many aspects of their bodily functions, which are listed below:
Issues with their cognitive function and memory. Having emotional lability, which generates negative changes and effects on one's mood. Having moderate to severely impaired motor functions.
According to the Society for the Advancement of Psychotherapy, to counteract the adverse effects of both nightmares and sleep disturbances, a process was made akin to dream deconstruction named Nightmare Deconstruction and Reprocessing (NDR) and is used therapeutically to treat those symptoms.
The said process consists of two separate sessions, with its subprocesses listed below:
The first of the two sessions involves psychoeducation on PTSD and its symptoms. It also includes both mental health and sleep. Next is a simple overview, assessment of vital information and motivation for change, and the implementation of various techniques aimed at stress reduction.
The second of the two sessions will be composed of three stages similar to a dream construction: deconstruction with exposure, reprocessing of information and meaning-making, and adaptation of various changes to both the nightmare itself and the affected individual's waking life.
Understanding how dream deconstruction works can significantly help in various ways, especially to an individual's mindset and psyche. You can also use the deconstruction process in interpreting both nightmares and sleep disturbances caused by PTSD of many people suffering from it.
As part of understanding how dreams (and their counterpart nightmare) work, we can understand more why they occur.
