Years ago I did a lot of dream analysis on my own dreams. here's a few pointers:

1. get a tape recorder next to your bed so you can record the dream as soon as you're awake. This is important because dream details evaporate very quickly. A note pad and pen is ok, but not as good because getting the pen and writing wakes you up too much. (This part of it is really critical, I remember when I listened to the tape I was amazed at all the detail I had completely forgotten about just a few hours later.)

2. after you've recorded a few dreams listen to the tapes you've made. Ask yourself what each part of the dream means (who's that guy, where am I going, why am I going, etc), also ask yourself what the entire dream means. Only you can know that, no book can tell you.
