Dreams go by contraries

[worder]

What does it mean? thank you.

[incitatus]

in this sense contraries can be seen as oxymorons- hot ice, cold fire etc. What it is trying to say, i think , is that what we dream about or for rarely makes sense and is often the diametrical opposite of what we need.

I think also its a belief about dream meanings...dream of a wedding means a funeral, dream of a baby means a death
