perhaps we interpret dreams wrong

this is taken from a book called The Twelve Caesers by Suetionius:

[Referring to the location of Julius Caeser on a assize]

At Cadiz he saw a statue of Alexander the Great in the Temple o Hercules, and was overheard to sigh impatiently: vexed, it seems, that at an age when Alexander had already conquered the whole world, he himself had done nothing in the least epoch-making. Moreover, when on the following night, much to his dismay, he had a dream of raping his own mother, the soothsayers greatly encouraged him by their interpretation of it: namely, that he was destined to conquer the earth, our Universal Mother.

also, another thing i have wondered is why or how it makes any sense for another person to interpret your dreams, for they are what we most internally feel are they not?
