 Vague and useless October 2, 2008
This book offers no help in interpreting a dream. For instance unders "sister" it says "points to a close female relationship." So, what does that mean if I dream of my sister? Under cat it says "(domestic/wild) pertains to one's quality or type of independence. See specific type such as cheetah, Chesire, calico, etc." What about a mongrel cat? Again how does this description help me define my dream's meaning? I am extremely disappointed in this book.
 Missing Pages Found April 5, 2008
Looking up a dream just happened to be a topic missing in the book. Not one but several consecutive pages are missing. How many other dreams will I not be able to find? I want to exchange it for another book but I haven't had the time to pick a substitute. I'm glad I didn't just settle for one book.

Having the original book for years I was thrilled to see a more complete version, Absolutely the best book on dreams ever published. concise definitions that when put together make total sense. Recommended to anyone with an insight to dreams and what they really mean!
In Your Dreams February 29, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We have all had the experience of awaken from a dream and being intrigued, wondering if the dream meant something specific. I have always been fascinated by the symbolic language of our dreams. I believe that dreams are the place where we work through our problems, where we practice needed skills, and where we try out new concepts.
For years, I have written down and analyzed my dreams. Sometimes the process can be rather frustrating, especially when I can't determine the meaning of the symbols that I am attempting to examine. My first test for In Your Dreams was to look up a number of mystery symbols that I hadn't been able to identify through other means. I was thrilled when I found them all and several pieces of my personal puzzle fell into place.
With renewed curiosity, I began looking at the symbols of various body parts looking to the symbolic nature of illness and dis-ease. The results were very interesting. I believe that they could be of use to me in my practice.
Better than expected in some ways, disappointing in one January 27, 2008
I was disappointed when I first rec'd this book. I was expecting descriptions to be much more detailed. I thought I could get more from a free website and still think this sometimes! I hadn't pulled the book out in a while, I don't use this kind of thing that much in general, but I reluctantly did this morning and was surprisingly pleased. I hadn't noticed how insightful these short and sweet descriptions are. So maybe short is better. The purpose is probably the author's desire to leave some work to the dreamer. As far as thoroughness, I disagree with the reviewer about not being able to find key words... this is the most thorough book I have seen so a question could be asked instead, in my opinion, and that is, why aren't these particular words in this book?
