The pursuit of happiness
It is now part of our culture to imagine dreams as messages from the "unconscious." The prevailing notion is that dreams must be interpreted- that is, put into our present ways of understanding. What is rarely noticed is that this move toward interpretation takes dreams out of their own way of presenting themselves. In Icons of a Dreaming Heart, Renee Coleman explodes the very notion of dream interpretation. Dreaming, she convincingly shows, presents the action of imaginally real companions. The manner in which Dr. Coleman lets the worlds of dreaming reveal themselves constitutes the essence of this writing. There is no theory here. We are taken into a new kind of attentiveness, available to everyone. We come to experience the dream presences as quite autonomous from us-visitors, not from "elsewhere," but ever-present visitors asking to be noticed. The great secret, now revealed in this remarkable book, is that in saying "yes" to the beckoning of dream presences, we are changed, down to the very core of our being.

It is now over twenty years since I have published my first book on dreams entitled "DREAMS, Pregrams of Tomorrow." I coined the word pregram in order to indicate that I see dreams as programs of the future. It was a radical proposal diametrically opposed to the general perception of dreams at the time. There are glimmers of hope though, that others might begin to recognise this astonishing characteristic of our dreams. While the ancients took this idea for granted, the so called 'Age of Enlightenment' and what followed it, has done much to obliterate this ancient wisdom. These glimmers of hope come from serious investigators, who now distinguish between 'ordinary dreams' and 'psychic dreams'. They have dubbed them 'psychic', thus suggesting that some dreams do seem to be anticipating the future. This is, as I see it, the thin end of the wedge that will eventually widen this recognition ever more. The glimmers of hope are strongest among young people. Thanks to the internet we are afforded a more global perspective of dreams. There are many sites online that grapple with the mysteries of dreams, the last frontier of human exploration. Among these we find many postings of young dreamers, which evidence insights that are less prejudiced than those of older generations. On "Yahoo Dreams," for instance, we come across one or more cases of precognitive dreams on a daily basis. And when such a case is posted, there are usually many other young dreamers who will say: "Yes, it's weird, but it also happens to me " Most of these young dreamers are always nonplussed when they discover that one of their dreams was able to anticipate an incident ahead of time. It is mainly for these young adventurers that I have written this book. I have done so in order to show them the shortest way into the deepest mystery of our dreams. Kurt Forrer is a retired school principal who has recorded and studied dreams all his life. He now divides his time between writing, interpreting dreams, and holding dream workshops.
In this title, Chaplain McDonald explains the process of understanding how to interpret our dreams and how God uses dreams to communicate with us.

What are the most common dreams and why do we have them? What does a dream about death mean? What do dreams of swimming, failing, or flying symbolize? First published by Sigmund Freud in 1899, The Interpretation of Dreams considers why we dream and what it means in the larger picture of our psychological lives. Delving into theories of manifest and latent dream content, the special language of dreams, dreams as wish fulfillments, the significance of childhood experiences, and much more, Freud, widely considered the "father of psychoanalysis," thoroughly and thoughtfully examines dream psychology. Encompassing dozens of case histories and detailed analyses of actual dreams, this landmark text presents Freud's legendary work as a tool for comprehending our sleeping experiences. Renowned for translating Freud's German writings into English, James Strachey-with the assistance of Anna Freud-first published this edition in 1953. Incorporating all textual alterations made by Freud over a period of thirty years, it remains the most complete translation of the work in print. Cover photography by Paul Spremulli
