When they were recalled after awakening they were regarded as either the friendly or hostile manifestation of some higher powers, demoniacal and Divine.

But since the downfall of the mythological hypothesis an interpretation of the dream has been wanting. The conditions of its origin its relationship to our psychical life when we are awake its independence of disturbances which, during the state of sleep, seem to compel notice its many peculiarities repugnant to our waking thought the incongruence between its images and the feelings they engender then the dreams evanescence, the way in which, on awakening, our thoughts thrust it aside as something bizarre, and our reminiscences mutilating or rejecting itall these and many other problems have for many hundred years demanded answers which up till now could never have been satisfactory.
