It is good to dream so that your mind can work things out and give your intuition a chance to play out scenarios that can help you in problem solving. How frequently you should dream will probably be unique to your situation, there's no hard and fast rule.

Interesting, how so?

We don't understand all the mechanisms the brain carries out but apparently dreaming is your brain acting out scenarios based on information you may not even be aware you have collected. Your subconscious is constantly trying to make patterns from the information that comes through your brain which is what we call intuition, this mechanism seems to be the one at play in dreaming, only with more vivid pictures instead of mere thoughts. Your intuition is helpful because your conscious thought process may be unable to link unrelated pieces of data while your intuition can. This is why we say "let me sleep on it" because in more relaxed states intuition seems to work better and there's no better relaxed state than sleep.

So what your saying is that the visual experience observed when dreaming is just a smoke screen for an underlying thought process that's out of our control.
If I understood you correctly...Would you say that visual aspect of dreams is insignificant?

No, it is an additional layer of "data processing".
