I look at this book everytime I go to Barnes and Noble and I finally bought it. I have looked up my dreams for the last few nights and so far learned that dreaming of going to the dentist means I doubt the sincerity and honor of someone, hearing a serenade means anticipations will not fail me, cutting down a tree means I am wasting my energy (maybe looking up my dreams is the waste of energy? :), and dreaming of living in a castle means I have prospects of being a great traveler.
There is nothing in this book about a cliff. However, sustaining a fall, while being very frightened, denotes I am undergoing a great struggle but will eventually rise to honor and wealth since I didn't sustain an injury. *phew* Dreaming of being in pain means useless regret over trivial transactions.
I love this book simply for the fact that dreams and the psychological translations of dreams fascinate me. However, this really isn't a very 'comprehensive' interpretation book for our day. There is nothing on yelling, cliffs, or airplanes, yet there are translations on spleens, figs, yule logs, and jackdaws.
I bought a different dream dictionary that was highly recommended and I prefer to use this one. It has more items in which to look up and the authors cut to the chase with the meanings! Highly recommend this dictionary!
Interesting. It left out sexual dreams. It was very good for compiling the different possibilities in one place saving readers the research. I admit to skipping the history part as I felt it wasn't needed.
