The Interpretation of Dreams (Sigmund Freud)

Freud’s "The Interpretation of Dreams" suggests that our dreams are a window into our subconscious mind, revealing hidden desires, fears, and unresolved conflicts. He believed dreams are composed of symbols and stored memories that we might not be aware of when awake. By analyzing these symbols, Freud argued we can better understand our true feelings and motivations. Dreams often disguise their meaning to protect us from uncomfortable truths, making interpretation a tool for self-awareness and psychological insight. Overall, Freud viewed dreams as meaningful expressions of our inner psychological world.
