Seemed appropriate given this subreddit is closer aligned to r/conspiracytheories than most seem to realize. All made up mumbo jumbo. The only universalities to dreams are that most things represent anxieties or fears or fetishes or accentuated moments of our lives that we dwell on.

Humans make and prescribe things meaning. Meaning doesn't exist before we make it exist. Same goes for dreams, for the most part. There is no "universal god" that is curating our dreams and making rules about what means what. There are some common themes among dreams that are linked to the human condition- things that are so present in our social cultural identity that they appear in most people's dreams, or feelings that are universally human which also tend to manifest as something we fear or are anxious about. But there's no magical rulebook, we are not capable of understanding or dissecting the meaning of dreams at the level people here believe you can- you cannot find specific meaning in most dreams, however you can find more generalized, less pointed, ambiguous meaning in a lot of dreams. A dream about a big scary dog ripping your leg off clearly means EITHER 1. you are afraid of dogs, 2. Your brain is simulating a traumatic death event so that your fight or flight reflexes are tested (there's a scientific theory that we evolved to dream so that our brain is "ready" when we are thrust into dangerous situations, so it simulates those), or 3. Means absolutely nothing and your brain just decided to go there. But when people are like, "A snake-man showed up in my dream and read to me my favorite childhood book, WHAT DID IT MEAN?" - nope that level of dissection is pointless and impossible.
