yep, go with the emotional tenor of the dream xise. The symbols (or symbology) is secondary to that, or rather the symbols support the emotion of the dream.
I've had a few dreams that could have been mistaken for nightmares (what is a nightmare anyway? lol) but on further consideration and analysis they were just a re-experiencing or the un-doing of a knot of fear or a fearful thoughtform.
and even though the emotional tenor of that dream/experience was one of fear/anxiety/relief-in-waking-up, the 'aftereffect' was not one of self-doubt or undermining ... which allowed me a accept the experience for what it was - the undoing of fear through the re-experiencing of it, and seeing it for the 'dream' or imagined reality that fear really is.
does that make any sense lol? I had a dream to show me the effects of fear were unreal, by experiencing the emotion of fear and then waking up to see that the fear had no 'reality'. Yah, convoluted, I know : d
but yeah, emotional tenor is always the first place to start in diagnosing a dream and what the significant self on the other side of the veil is trying to communicate.
