SEX IN DREAMS: Understanding dreams is not so difficult. In practice dream symbols translate into certain words within the English language. For instance a "sex" dream may simply capture an everyday thought such as "we are now strong allies". In that way the mind uses a sexual metaphor to describe an alliance.
