Dream Interpretation Spread (Themes and Symbols)

[QueenOfTemperance]

Hi All
So, I was inspired the other night when a video popped up in my Youtube recommended section:

I think using the Tarot to interpret dreams is a really awesome idea and since I'm newer to Tarot, I thought it would be a really great exercise. Additionally, I've recently been having a reoccurring dream and I was really curious what the message might be. I did a Google search and came across a few spreads, but none of them seemed like a good fit for my particular needs - my dream had a lot of symbolism that I thought deserved a little extra attention. This spread came close (http://tarotelements.com/2011/09/15/dream-interpretation-spread/), but I thought I would modify it a bit and this is what I came up with:

1.........2
.....5.....
3.........4

Card 1: Overall theme of the dream
Card 2: Event (or events) in waking life that the dream is addressing
Card 3: Overall message of the dream
Card 4: What is blocking this message in waking life
Card 5-?: Interpretations of specific symbols (can pull for multiple symbols if desired)

I felt my reading results were very insightful and extremely relevant. It gave me a new perspective on the situation I believe the dream relates to. I thought I'd share with you all and see if any of you find this useful. I'd be super interested to see results from those who give it a go !!! I'd be willing to start a thread in the Reading section if anyone is interested

Let me know if this works for you

Thank you so much for this spread! Just did it and it was ver insightful, I discovered something really important and I understood what my subconscious was trying to convey to me. It was so clear that I can now say I am learning his language. I don't remember if I ever was so close t having a real access to my subconscious. So I thank you again for this spread!!!
