Usually yes. In the process of weight lifting, you are actually tearing/breaking down muscle tissue. The soreness you feel is related to how much tissue was broken down during your weight lifting session. This soreness can last for a day or two, or as long as a week. It all depends how much you lifted, and how intense your workout was. The old weight lifting saying goes " no pain, no gain", which is referring to the pain you feel after your workout.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

Yes, it is okay to lift when you are sore. If the soreness is coming from a muscle group you previously worked on your muscles are repairing itself. It should be gone after about a week.
