This review is from: 1,001 Dreams: An Illustrated Guide to Dreams and Their Meanings (Paperback)
i found this book entertaining, as all of these type of books would be. this is my very first dream book. i found that by itself, it is not enough to actually decipher you dreams. it is mearly symbols. i might pick up another book that will acompany this, that would explain senarios and not just icons. overall, a decent book IF another would explain the rest of the dreams. definatly just a fun book to look at and this is small....4"x4" so perfect for you night table.

definitely 1001 elements described,
By merrymousies (Waterford, VA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 1,001 Dreams: An Illustrated Guide to Dreams and Their Meanings (Paperback)
A very full book - Each item (e.g. wheel) has a short paragraph as to what it may mean (e.g for Wheel - The prominence of a wheel may be a dynamic call to action...) Freudian and Jungian interpretations are included. After looking through the book though I pretty much decided that my dreams are my dreams and I need to just listen to myself and figure out the meaning. Some of the ideas in the books seem contrived and ultimately aren't for me. Good try on a very complex topic though.

This review is from: 1,001 Dreams: An Illustrated Guide to Dreams and Their Meanings (Paperback)
A fun read for younger fans who have friends over and are just playing with understanding their dreams. Nothing deep here or particularly interesting. Just to glance through.
