I recently discovered, in an ancient dream book, that Romans knew some psychoanalysis, i.e. dreams were seen both as omens and as "ingenious tricks our mind plays upon us". It is a commonplace of Freud that what we dream is actually disguised. The man referred to dreams as "the royal path to the unconscious".
Got a friend who loves to dream. He also experiences dreams as mental snippets of what usually actually happens tomorrow, in thinly disguised form as well. Coming back to own, I once dreamed I was reading newspapers - and every article was highly surprising. Something is also to be made of the fact we always wake up before the dream becomes too alarming, or revealing.
Omens, visions or whatever reprocessing, nobody knows what dreams are. They are real though - real enough to wake one up and make you think in the dead of the night. In awe, the word combining admiration, reverence and fear. The secret safe, I can merely conclude I missed catching my tail again.
