Dream DictionaryReviewed by Avid Reader and Writer, 2009-12-29
This book is exactly what it saids, a dream dictionary. It is packed full of images from your dreams and what they might mean. I say might because like Tarot Cards, images can mean different things to different people. Used as a guide, this is one of the best dream books out there. I have looked up some images and not found them. So, although it is very extensive, there are images missing from the dictionary. If you are really into looking up your dreams, this is a good one to have.
Dream DICTIONARYReviewed by DigitalLux, 2009-06-23
This is an excellent book to have in one's dream interpretation library. Buy it, along with Isabel Hickey's "Dreams: Your Magic Mirror". Remember folks, NO book is going to cover all dream symbols. Several other reviewers slammed this book for being exactly what it should be - a dictionary. You will not find a 'complete' dream interpreted for you. Nor is there such a thing as a 'typical' dream that 'everyone' has. There are dream symbols that are 'typical', but each dream is individual, just as each dreamer is individual. So, you are going to have to do some work when you wake up - look up the various parts of your dream and think about how they fit together. The meaning should become clear to you.
In Your Dreams - apparently not mine...not at all what I was
seekingReviewed by joe, 2009-03-11
I purchased "In your Dreams" hoping to get answers to questions such as...why do I have dreams about my teeth falling out? Why do I have dreams that I lost my school schedule and have been missing classes for 3 months? I was figuring a 1 to 3 page chapter on various common dreams that people have. I looked up "teeth" in this book and the only thing it says is: "symbolize the manner of an individual's speech which reflects their inner personality". Huh? What? This book is literally a dictionary of words and single sentences of definitions. Not at all what I was hoping for.
The Holy Spirit's vocabularyReviewed by Garth 6, 2008-11-29
This book is a handbook to understanding the way The Indwelling
Spirit of God communicates with your sleeping subconscious mind and
your ever-awake, ever-lasting soul, to teach, shape, warn, guide
and comfort you as you journey inward and up.
This book is the first thing I touch in the morning when I wake, my
small portal to Heaven.
Disappointment.Reviewed by Kimberly P. Gustafson, 2008-11-11
I decided to purchase this book because some of the reviews of this
book were pretty good. Unfortunately, I regret to state, I should
of listened to the negative reviews for this particular book. I
found this book to be lacking. I have been studying a dreams for
many a year, but everything I find is either to be exactly of the
definition of a word (such as a dictionary) or to be completely
useless.
It's all in one's opinion though.
