What are the current ideas regarding Freuds dream analysis?

Freud continues to be regarded as the original thinker and pioneer in the psychoanalytical interpretation of dreams, or rather, interpretation of dreams in pursuit of psychoanalysis. Freudian analysis continues to be respected and practiced by Freudian psychologists, although each analyst adopts Freud's methods to her/his own work. From a broader perspective, psychology in general tends to view Freud's narrow view of dreams as strictly wish-fulfillment as too dogmatic. Students of Freud as early as Carl Jung began diverging from Freud's limited interpretations, and now there are many different approaches to dream interpretation and analysis.

What is meant by predicate thinking in the interpretation of dreams by freud?

In Freudian terms, "predicate thinking" is the mind's tendency to link things that have no real similarity. More specifically, that part of the Self that Freud called the Id is prone to identify very different things as the same thing. In the interpretation of dreams, this can apply to identifying images in dreams with some actual object or experience in the dreamer's life. For example, a dream cigar might represent a phallus.
