THE DREAM I was in some sort of room or office. I heard a woman say something about "Claire". I then mentioned Claire and the woman said "Who's Claire". I felt as if I was trying to get into the conversation. My emotions were quite positive in the dream. I probably just misheard what she said because I was a little too far away. [I associated the woman in the dream with a woman who I really admire. She seemed really nice in the dream. She was in Australia at that moment and I have been missing her.]

GUESSWORK The dreamer felt that the woman in the dream represented a woman he really liked. He had been missing her because she was on holiday.

ASSOCIATIONS AND SYMBOLIC MEANINGS
1. The woman in the dream reminded the dreamer of a woman that he really admired. The dream could therefore be about his relationship with her.
2. The dreamer had clearly misheard what the woman had said. What could this represent in real life? At the time the dreamer was far away on holiday visiting family in Australia. Therefore the dream could represent the dreamer being far away from the woman.

DREAM ANALYSIS In guesswork the dream was linked to the dreamer missing a woman whom he admired. The dream deals with the following themes
- his relationship with the woman
- feeling left out

If you weave together the different themes you find that they could capture these thoughts -"I really admire her and like talking with her. She is on holiday at the moment for a month and I really miss her. I feel a little left out and even when she is here I am left out."
