Dream interpretation is like a puzzle. Dreams are like stories that your mind makes up when you are sleeping. Dream interpretation is when you try to figure out what the story your mind made up during the dream might mean. To interpret a dream, you have to think about the characters, settings, objects, and actions in your dream, and what those things might mean in your life. For example, if you had a dream about jumping off a roof and flying, it might mean that you feel like you are trying to do something big in your life and you feel like you can do it!
