Commentary to Genesis 40 and 41. This lesson covers Joseph's interpretation of the dreams of Pharaoh and his servants.

In this lesson I digress to teach how one can properly understand their own dreams. I explain how dreams are a psychological phenomena and not a religious one. This was as true of Pharaoh and his servants as it is with us today.

By understanding the psychology of dreams we can learn a lot about ourselves and thus draw closer to G-d.

I quote from modern psychological (Jungian) sources about the importance of dream interpretation and practical steps that we can all follow to help us understand these mysterious messages from the unconscious.

I also discuss material from the Talmud Berakhot about how our Sages understood dreams and the lessons they taught us how to understand them for ourselves.

Comprehensive dream analysis would require years of study, this one hour lesson covers the basics of what one can do for themselves to begin a dream diary, learn to monitor their dreams and come to understand the language of the unconscious and its message from beyond.
