Original link. A lot like Sigmund Freud, the ancient Egyptians believed that dreams, whether happy or frightening, held an important message for the dreamer. However, unlike Freud, they also believed that dreamers traveled through a portal to another world. Not surprisingly, dreams were also believed to be prophetic, or, at least, were used this way for the pharaohs' political propaganda.
