5.0 out of 5 stars
The best book on dream analysis you may ever find!, August 6, 2006
This review is from: How to Interpret Your Dreams: Practical Techniques Based on the Edgar Cayce Readings (Paperback)
Mark Thurston is right on the mark! The techniques discussed in this remarkable book are not for those who need a comic book style approach to one of the most complex subjects in our personal lives.
Nonetheless, here are the finest approaches to understanding yourself, defining your ideals, exercising your spiritual abilities, and aproaching the spiritual center of the universe.
It's all within us. Unity. Our dreams may be the only way to see through a window to a realm hidden from us. We are locked in flesh, in this material world, in the lowest of vibrations, beset by our passions.
What we need, and what this excellent book will present to the dedicated and persistent reader is an entree to an understanding of herself, of her relations with others, of how close she is approaching her highest ideals.
Yes, the Cayce material is difficult. So many aspects of improving ourselves are difficult. If it were easy, everyone would already be a saint.
In all my study of dream analysis since I was a teenager, this is the finest, despite its low cost and humble binding. You want to spend hundreds of dollars reading Jungian analytic techniques? Great! Jung knew much about the life of the mind, symbols, dreams.
Not to put too fine a point upon it, you need this book if your are serious, not just dillettantish, about understanding your dream life. Your dream life is unbelievably rich, brilliant, revealing. You can do it!

If you like Edgar Cayce, this is for you, September 29, 2005
This review is from: How to Interpret Your Dreams: Practical Techniques Based on the Edgar Cayce Readings (Paperback)
I was expecting more of a dictionary to be able to look up images that occur in my dreams. This book is organized as a series of rambling discussions of different dream experiences and the author's selection of Edgar Cayce reading/sayings to clarify the dream experience. Perhaps, if an editor shortened the book by half, it would be more readable for someone like myself. Also, I did not find the Edgar Cayce remarks to make a lot of sense. But if you are an Edgar Cayce "person", perhaps the commentary will make more sense.
