Many psychologists have given up trying to interpret dreams, but we talked to one who hasn't.
Psychologist Ian Wallace has interpreted over 150,000 dreams during his 30 years of practice.
"Most people think that dreams are something that happen to them, but the reverse is true. We happen to dreams, we create everything in them, every atom, every photon, every person, every event," Wallace told us.
He helped us compile a list of 10 of the most common dreams and their meanings.
"All of these top 10 dreams have a really positive message and by acting on that information we can usually fulfill some of our bigger dreams and ambitions in waking life," Wallace said.
10. Being late
What it means: Being late suggests you feel that you’re losing the opportunity to experience some sort of fulfillment in your waking life. This may be because you’ve been involving yourself in busy and sometimes meaningless activity, rather than committing to meaningful action.
What you should do: Until you commit to a decision, you will always find yourself hesitating and using your time ineffectively.

9. Finding an unused room
What it means: The rooms in a house represent different aspects of your character, so finding an unused room suggests that you’re discovering a talent that you were previously unaware of.
What you should do: The more time that you spend exploring your dormant talents, the more likely that you will find other doors opening for you in waking life.

8. Out-of-control vehicle
What it means: The vehicle represents your ability to make consistent progress toward a specific objective, so in waking life, you may feel that you don’t have enough control over your road to success.
What you should do: Instead of trying to over control the situation, relax your grip and allow your fundamental instincts and drives to steer the best path for you.
