5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best dream-anaysis books out there, January 27, 1998

By	[e-mail] (Indiana) - See all my reviews

"Dream Dictionary,"while not a large book, is the best one I've found on the subject. Some of the most helpful parts come before and after the section on common symbols and what they may mean. The authors have created a you-personalize-it how-to guide for anyone wishing to figure out what their own dreams mean.

"DD" is written in plain English, easy to understand and use, with helpful division of types of symbols, ie, Characters, Family Members, Colors, Animals, Gemstones, Buildings, Vehicles.

I have used this book for several years, finding it more reliable and helpful than several others on my bookshelf. This well-worn volume stays by my bed, for quick reference upon waking.

I highly recommend it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Provides a strong Christian basis for dream interpretation, January 27, 2001

By	A. Wilson (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book was published by Pilgrim Press/The United Church Board for Homeland Ministries. As such, it has a pretty strong Christian slant when interpreting the dream symbols, often quoting Biblical scripture to explain its interpretations.

This may make the book ideal for Christian readers, but I found myself disagreeing with many of the book's interpretations as a result of this.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very accurate, February 21, 1999

By	Damian C. Hospital "conradhoss" (Florida) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a very helpful dictionary of symbols. Most of the time, I can easily get an interpretation of a dream I had. I highly recommend this book.

My only gripe is that sometimes the author says "this dream is an omen" or "this symbol predicts". I am still not convinced that dreams can tell the future.
