I finally found my dream book... I was trying to find out what the horned guy meant and found this.. DevilIn previous times, the figure of the Devil was one to be feared and hated. It personified evil, and all of those things which cause conflict between higher ideals and the lesser self. As the wilder, more Pagan side of ourselves, the conventional figure with horns and a tail will often appear in dreams. It is almost as though it has been given 'life' by the way that people concentrate on it. Once it is understood as something to be confronted, as something belonging to all of us, the Devil loses its potency.

Well, maybe it's better to look at it like this (and this method is what makes it hard to interpret other people's dreams)
When you see a guy with horns, what are your first reactions, first impressions. Not the logical stuff, but your inital response? That is prolly what your subconsious sees or thinks and is using that as a way to get a message across. Dreams are like letters written in code. The code is very specific to each person and their own experiences and feelings. When you understand how a symbol in a dream relates to you, the meaning often comes clear. Seeing a horned unhelpful guy drive by in one of my dreams may mean something different than in one of yours because of the way we perceive and react to the action and appearance of it all. Does that make sense? It's almost like seeing different objects in a rorschach ink blot.
-- As far as the book thing, I think it's saying that without much knowledge, at face value, the devil is an entity of fear and evil. However everyone has a "bad side" and a "good side" and when this is realised and the "bad side" is confronted and dealt with or understood and accepted as part of the balance perhaps, it is no longer evil and powerful because you have the control and the knowledge (which is were all power lies).
With your dream and the book "definition," perhaps your inner devil is callous and uncaring for others? It might be a sign that you havn't been supportive and helpful, or maybe you feel like someone you know who you think should be helping you ( or someone else) isn't. Instead they are just laughing at other people's problems and driving off to their own lives. Or maybe it's a general observation made while watching the world and the way the general public reacts.
Just my 2 cents, something you have to ask yourself really.

Dreams can be a confusing experience to deal with. I interpreted one of my dreams on my blog on myspace.

Well, I am one of those really messed up people who go and see a counselor for everything...but her and I have had many discussions on dreams, and we interpritate eachothers dreams. I have some weird thing where all my dreams are signs of what is going to happen they are just in weird ways...Kind of like yours, the horned man, and the crazy lady...Also if there have been a lot of things on your mind during the day, your subconscience mind also can be known as a whole nother world...Like a spiritual world. It takes them and puts them in new forms. So what has been on your mind? Or maybe it has to do with something that has been going on lately. It all depends on the dream and the person. Each of us have different ways of working our own dreams to our advantage.

Thanks guys you were a great help..
I've remembered another dream though lol its actually really funny but confusing..
I was going somewhere with one of my friends and her large family and we stopped and went into a shopping centre. We were in a shop when we heard a commotion and went and had a look. The roof of the shopping centre had disappeared and it was night outside. People were pointing at things coming out of the sky and then everyone ran panicked.. I finally saw what it was everyone was panicking about.. There were hundreds of death like figures in the sky with their scythes and stuff and they were heading towards the shopping centre. They landed and reached out with their skeletal fingers and touched people. Except when they touched people they didn't die.. They just cracked up laughing and couldn't stop.. Then they threw back their hoods and they were jamaican.. Haha weird I know

Ok so I've had another dream.. When I woke up I just got important points in my head. There was a shark that got electricuted. My dog was dying and so was my mum. And there was a dinosaur. It was chasing me and I was trying to run from it through alleys and stuff.
I've had around 20 dinosaur dreams in the past 2 years.. I can't figure out if its trying to tell me something or not. Most of them repeat as well.
