Before we examine how this transformation can be accomplished, let's look at the components of our dreams. We'll see who the horrific figures of your Chase or Attack dreams are, and how adult fears emerge from childish ones. Trees branch in a consistent way, leaves take their genetic form, rivers carve a sinuous route, snowflakes fall in their basic hexameter shape.
