Relatively few dream symbols have universal meanings. Most images that appear in dreams are unique to the dreamer, and have a specific significance to that particular person. For instance, a dream of a "dark horse" would mean one thing to a girl going through the horse stage of adolescence, while meaning something very different to a student of the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and yet something else to a political candidate. Symbols with universal meanings generally represent "big" ideas that transcend time and cultures, such as darkness and light, seas, mountains, the Old Woman / Old Man, the Shadow, etc.

How can you figure out a dream?
Dreams communicate through symbols and metaphors. Some symbols, such as the dreamer's home and certain characters such as the Shadow are recognized as universal, carrying similar meanings for all persons in every culture. Other dream images are unique to the individual dreamer. But not all dreams contain significant messages. Many, perhaps most dreams merely reflect a rehash of memories, emotions and experiences as the sleeping mind sorts through the impressions of the day.
