Red Emma: Excellent points! That must have been a great class!
I agree wholeheartedly with what Red Emma said, particularly the part about paying attention to odd little connections and wordplays. I think most people who have trouble interpreting their own dreams fail to make these connections. The problem is that when they are awake and recalling the dream they think these little connections are too tenuous and absurd to be meaniningful. But hey, the absurd is the playground of the unconscious (dreaming) mind, so that's where you gotta go if you want to interpret!
Also, if you keep a journal of your dreams, you will begin to see more easily the connection between your dreams and your daily life. Thus you will be able to eliminate the most mundane parts of your dreams and concentrate on the parts that create the strongest feelings for you.
Good luck!
Peace,
