During the process of interpretation, if the fear remains, she suggests seeking help to decode the dream. Balancing dreams are the most frequent type of dream. Sister Caroline described a twin scale with God perched in the center and on either side are our opposites. Opposites are our masculine and feminine sides, anger and kindness, sensibility and wildness, for example. But we should seek to understand and accept both sides in order to be balanced.
Dreams bring messages through symbols, which can be people, places, or animals.
A daughter dreaming about her father who passed away may be seeking humor in her life or comfort, if her father represents these things to her. The meaning of symbols can be any number of things and is different for every person. Sister Caroline said that books that offer interpretations can be used as a resource, perhaps, but cannot interpret dreams for you. Only the dreamer knows the meaning of the symbols and images in their dream. Interpreting dreams is not exact and takes practice.
