Yes. The entire dream is a projection of the dreamer.
It is our unconscious communicating to us via dreams.
It is our unconscious working on issues via dreaming about it.
Often are not even aware of the issues on a conscious level.
Or the complexities of the issue.
And yes the dreamer helps interprets the dream because some of
the symbolism is unique to each dreamer.
So to get the meaning of the dream you have to ask some questions
and understand what the symbols in the dream mean to the dreamer.
This is why my training was not to use a dream cook book.
Where a snake always means the same thing in every dream, etc.
Some of it is obvious, we can see the nature of this dream.
Falling off a roof and hanging on by a couple of fingers is obviously
an anxiety dream.
But most dreamers need some help figuring it out.
We can also see a theme of the dream is also death and dying.
We can also see some closure on an issue. Someone admits their guilt
at the end of the dream.
So it takes awhile to sort out the dream and the pieces of it.
And you have to talk with the dreamer and ask questions.
