Dream Benefits: Open Communication

Usually when people think of dreams, they figure them just to be erratic scenes of little importance in which they have no control. Some may find they prove useful given that they remember its scenario. Some dream content can be so exotic in nature that the person ends up confused and wouldn't even begin to know how or where to decipher it. Some may be so frightening that the person will choose to place a mental block in order to keep its contents from interfering with their life in general.

But it isn't like there is an 'off' switch for dreams, so wouldn't it be beneficial to learn key details which would aid in the understanding of how dreams function?  Could there actually be somewhat of an exclusive form of communication happening which most aren't even aware of?

When examined, most dreams seem to act as a personal GPS for life's unexpected detours ; and if you fail to listen to directions, you could end up lost. Since the conscious mind likes to take charge of every waking moment, the only setting in which another form of guidance could take place is during sleep when the conscious mind has less chance of interfering.

Even though dreams tend to be cryptic and unrelated to they way we are used to communicating, suppose in time there will be a separate language developed to support its symbolic format. There might actually be way for someone to explain how they suddenly end up in free fall down the side of a cliff or soaring though the air with a celebrity. Maybe that knowing awaits in the next stage of our social evolution.
