# Mapping Dreams is Like Mapping Waves in the Ocean
> *No, you know what I'll tell you about my dreams? The atmosphere of my dreams repeats itself — yes, that happens. But the images within a dream are never exactly the same. So, I don't understand at all how this can be mapped.*
It cannot. This holds meaning only for you, although similar occurrences may happen to other people. Mapping this is akin to charting waves in the ocean — they can only be utilized in the present moment, others can be taught to use them, but mapping them — perhaps only for a couple of seconds.
