"I'm going to be unconscious, hallucinate, and have partial amnesia about it."
"OK, sleep well."
I sometime find it odd how much we take dreaming in stride, and how little we think about our dreams.
Do we dream because we are human, or are we human because we dream?
Are our dreams our subconscious trying to talk to our conscious?
Are dreams windows into alternate dimensions, where we see through the eyes of our parallel selves?
Science has reached the point where they can identify when someone is dreaming, but no one, as far as I know, can tell us where dreams come from.

Do you know yourself? Do I?
Why "Five Questions"?
The Five Questions I refer to are:
Who are you?
What do you want?
Why are you here?
Where are you going?
Who do you serve, and who do you trust?
They are drawn from the TV shows "Babylon 5" and "Crusade". They are, I think, a very comprehensive set of questions that identify a person. Of course, because of that, they are virtually impossible to properly answer.

From my experience, the answer to all of your questions is "Yes."
That said, one's "dreamstyle" seems to be highly inidvidualistic. Some tend to Freudian, some to Jungian ... we each have a "Style of Psyche," and when you start working with your dreams the style determines the interpretation; the interpretation the style, in maddening but sometimes fruitful symbiosis.
