5.0 out of 5 stars The best book on dream symbols I've evaluated so far, March 14, 2000

By	Dream Emporium Dot-Com "ZenCyn" (Charlottesville, Virginia) - See all my reviews

I myself am a dream interpreter with my own dream interpreting site in which I encourage people to learn how to interpret their own dreams. This book is my #1 preference for people to consider first, because it is logical as well as spiritual. So many dream symbol books are hokey and just plain ridiculous, but this one simply makes sense and helps the dreamer better evaluate their dreams.

This book can help you gain better understanding of your subconscious mind's inner workings via dream interpretation so you can better follow your intuition to clear the cobwebs of confusion & uncertainty out of your life. I highly recommend this book and commend the author, Betty Bethards.

5.0 out of 5 stars MetaPhysically, this was my first book in the early '80's, October 24, 1999

By	Gene Shafer ([e-mail]) (Perth, Western Australia) - See all my reviews

The Dream Book by Betty Bethards was the first book that was suggested to me for learning more of my future. It was ironic that I kept forgetting the name. Now, I rate it as the top book to get curious people to start their own adventure. I am now ordering my second copy as my first is in many pieces, worn so from much use. I prefer this Dream Book to all others that I have ever seen. It is simple and to the point. It is my opinion that Spirit will communicate to you with symbols. If you stick to one simple book of definitions, Spirit will be able to give a clearer message.

Thank You Ms Betty Bethards for being my first Guru.

Peace Gene Shafer

5.0 out of 5 stars A Spiritual and Practical Guide, July 29, 2002

By	Edith Harvath (Buena Park, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Dream Book: Symbols for Self Understanding (Paperback)

This is a wonderful book which has helped me interpret my dreams. I particularly like Bethards emphasis on the spiritual--developing your higher consciousness. Using principles of eastern religion/philosophy, such as karma and reincarnation, she sees dreams, along with prayer and meditation, as a tool to help you achieve the goals you have set for yourself.
Emphasizing the need to work to achieve your goals, to focus and direct your energy towards them, to take responsibility for your own actions, she believes you can create your own destiny.
Her dream interpretations are always guiding, teaching, gentle and caring, never threatening or frightening.
I find this book an insightful, uplifting, spiritual guide, which also helps you in a practical way, as you work to attain your ambitions here on earth.
