Abstract：
Spontaneous, unwilled subjective imagery and symbols (including dreams) often emerge in psychotherapy that can appear baffling and confound interpretation. Early psychoanalytic theories seemed to diverge as often as they agreed on the meaning of such content. Nevertheless, after reviewing key findings in the empirical science of spontaneous thought as well as insights gleaned from neuroscience and especially embodied cognition, it is now possible to construct a more coherent theory of interpretation that is clinically useful. Given that thought is so thoroughly embodied, it is possible to demonstrate that universalities in human physiology yield universalities in thought. Such universalities can then be demonstrated to form a kind of biologically directed universal \"code\" for understanding spontaneous symbolic expressions that emerge in psychotherapy. An example is given that illustrates how this can be applied to clinical encounters.
摘要：
自发的,不情愿的主观意象和符号（包括梦）经常出现在心理治疗中，它们会显得令人困惑和混乱。早期的精神分析理论似乎经常分歧，因为他们同意这种内容的含义。然而，在回顾了自发思维的经验科学中的关键发现以及从神经科学和特别体现的认知中收集的见解之后，现在有可能构建一个临床上有用的更连贯的解释理论.鉴于思想是如此彻底地体现，可以证明，人类生理学中的普遍性产生了思想上的普遍性。然后可以证明这种普遍性形成一种生物学指导的通用“代码”，用于理解心理治疗中出现的自发符号表达。给出了一个示例，说明了如何将其应用于临床。
