I work on recording dreams from time to time. I wake up from dreams several times a night normally. So, when i record them i start to wake up constantly which gets tiring.
One school of thought is that there's not a lot of benefit to trying to interpret most dreams. However, the act of recording dream assists in becoming more aware during dreams and while asleep in general. And yes, you can even become more aware during sleep (search Sleep Yoga). Once you become more aware, then less interpretation is needed since the experiences are clearer and more direct.
In fact there are many types of experiences that occur during sleep. Some of those are standard symbolic dreams while others are memories of more "advances" experiences. For instance, I have fairly regular "lesson" dreams that convey information quite directly. It may be a voice, visual, or a direct experience of some type. While I call these dreams since they happen while i'm asleep, their source is probably not my subconscious.
Regardless, the more awareness one can bring to any activity allows that activity to be more spirit driven.
