You will, over time, establish your own "personal dictionary" of symbols, feelings, images, etc. that will help you translate between the para-conscious perceptions and functions of your own mind and the conscious awareness that you use in the day-to-day world.
How do you do this? You might want to take a notebook, write down the images that occur, and meditate upon the images - image stream on the images themselves and see what kind of associations you build. Tease them out a bit. Write 'em down.
The associations will be highly personal, though some will map to generic symbols - archetypes, etc. Play with them.
