“Opt for the interpretation that teaches you something new, rather than one that seems to confirm your ingrained opinions and prejudices. remember, the main function of a dream is to communicate something to you that you don’t know, that you are unaware of, that lives in the unconscious. Your dream will not waste your time by telling you what you already know and understand; therefore, you should choose the interpretation that challenges your existing ideas rather than one that merely repeats what you already think you know.”

Robert A. Johnson, Inner Work (Page 94)
