A journey to the primordial language at the source of all dreaming, art & mythmaking... In 1945, on a hill overlooking the Nile, a Gnostic text was accidentally unearthed after having been buried for seventeen hundred years. Within its aged pages there appeared the mysterious fragment: enter through the image. Taking this as his starting point, the noted Visionary artist L. Caruana guides his reader through a labyrinth of imagery, exposing the forgotten image-language at the root of all dreaming, art and mythmaking.... Drawing examples from a diversity of ancient cultures (Buddhism, Alchemy, Gnosticism) and from contemporary Visionary art (Dali, Fuchs, Johfra), many beautiful and intriguing symbols are illuminated with crystal clarity. Retracing the steps of 20th century mythmakers (Hesse, Kazantzakis) and scholars (Jung, Campbell, Eliade), Caruana opens our eyes to the ancient mythic patterns underlying our lives. As many fascinating dreams are offered and decyphered (Baudelaire, Descartes), a new key is given to us for the elucidation of dreams. By the end of this richly-illustrated study, we come to see how our own daily experiences are, in fact, heroic adventures culminating in rare moments of epiphany. We discover that our own lives are nothing less than ..".a gradual unfolding of the Sacred."

Reprint Edition. Profusely illustrated. In 1813 Napoleon was defeated at Leipzip. However he left behind him a "Cabinet of Curiosities" among which a Prussian officer discovered an Oraculum and a Book of Fate. Originally this Oraculum had been discovered in one of the Royal tombs of Egypt during a French military expedition of 1801. The emperor ordered the manuscript to be translated by a famous German scholar and antiquarian. From that time onwards the Oraculum remained one of Napoleon's most treasures possessions. He consulted it on many occasions and it is said to have "formed a stimulus to his most speculative and most successful enterprises." Containing: Dreams and their Interpretation, Weather Omens, Astrological Miscellany and Important Advice, Chiromancy or Fortune Telling by the Hand, Celestial Palmistry, Observations on Moles in Men and Women, Temper and Disposition of any Person, The Art of Face Reading, Lucky Days, etc.

This book takes the reader through the entire gamut of dream analysis and interpretation, with the emphasis on family life. A family unit is a rather special entity, bound together by the invisible bonds of intuition. Everybody is linked intuitionally at a very deep level, but the family especially so. Intuition is the means of knowing something about somebody else without having to be told, without having to see or hear; it is the art of communicating without words. One way to discover these golden bonds is by remembering, recording and understanding your dreams: your own personal dreams, your parents' dreams, your spouse's or partner's dreams, your children's dreams. The more you study dreams, the more important they are apt to become. Everyday dreams about everyday affairs can grow and develop into something vastly more significant. If you are studying your family's dreams, you may find that their dreams too are becoming more important as time goes on, as though they are keeping pace with your own personal dream development. This is how they work. Our everyday thoughts and feelings have to take a back seat as the 'dreaming cycle' kicks into action and the hidden 'inner feelings', with their power of intuition, explore the contents of those parts of our minds which are normally unconscious.

There have been many books on the subject of dream analysis, most of them repeating what has been written many times before, and many of them of somewhat dubious value. Ray Douglas presents the subject from a previously unknown perspective: from the point of view of the inner feelings, also known as the higher emotional centre, which, he claims, is the actual source of dream imagery. He has been recording and interpreting dreams for many years, and has experienced for himself all the types of dream mentioned in this book. This is no small claim, for The Key to Dream Analysis describes every known type of dream, as well as every piece of information that may be useful in understanding our dreams. Familiar dream symbols so beloved by authors of traditional dream-books are not neglected here, but they are analysed in depth, and the whole dreaming process is explained with clarity. As Sigmund Freud pointed out, 'The interpretation of dreams is the royal road to knowledge of the unconscious activities of the mind'. It pays to take our dream lives seriously.

Dreams can inspire us, frighten us, and open a new world of discovery. But interpreting our dreams is often difficult, if not impossible. Finding a reliable teacher to help us answer all the questions we have can be equally frustrating-until now.

• Sleep dreams
• Waking dreams
• Daydreams
• Intuitive insight
• Contemplative awareness
• Soul Exploring
• And much more

This little book provides an excellent background on dreams; what they are, where they come from and what they are intended to do. It demystifies the process of interpreting these nightly messages and provides a down to earth, comprehensive and step-by-step approach to working with dreams that eliminates the confusion found in other books of the genera. Apart from demonstrating how to successfully deal with the narrative of the dream a significant portion of the book is dedicated to dream art. Dream art refers to those sketches, drawings, doodles and whatnot that people put together to help illustrate the dream. This book will explain what to look for, in this more creative aspect of the dreamer's presentation of the dream and how to employ these revelations to garner a better understanding of the dreams overall meaning. The book also includes a discussion on the topic of recalling dreams and offers several concrete suggestions to help facilitate the process. Finally, the book expounds upon common symbols, themes and motifs found in dreams. This section is not offered as a dream dictionary - as the book makes it perfectly clear that dream symbols are utterly unique to each dreamer - but rather as a catalyst to help one begin to conceptualize the work in a symbolic way. As the author points out the title of the book is about dream work, but it should be approached as dream play to be most productive.

This book is based on certain dreams in my life, that is to say, I would have a dream about something that left a mark on me and gave me such emotion to actually create a literal piece. How many times have we had dreams, such as a friend dying or a lover leaving, even though it may or may not have happened? Then a week or so later, fate steps in and takes this person out of our lives? Wow, is that karma or what? Or, when we love someone so much that it hurts us so deep, when we are ignored or all of a sudden cheated on or had our heart broke, all because this person decided that it was best for them to move on and not tell us. Talk about extreme and emotional pain, right? So, how do we handle that? I guess we could just say, forget it and move on, but everyone is not as strong as that. These types of people fret over that or cry and then what do they get in return, but someone who was a friend laughing at them, or someone spreading rumors about them? Paranoid, am I? That is the typical attitude today, that we have to live in a dog eat dog world, get them before they get us, and kick a man when he's down mentality. So, now is where we get into the "wishes" aspect. All of us whether we are well off or not have one time or another wished that we were someone else or that we were in another situation. Sometimes, we may even wish that special lover back into our lives even though they are married at the present or don't love us anymore. It doesn't matter who you are, whether rich, poor, big, or small have all wished to be someone or somewhere else, especially when the going gets tough. I have learned that God (or whatever deity you believe in) knows what's best for us and will give us ourneeds, so in essence, we do receive our wishes in due time, according to his will. I am hoping that anyone who reads this book will find something in it to help him or her cope with whatever is on their minds. For instance, if you want a lover back in your life and it will never happen, perhaps you may find something here to put your situation into perspective and realize that life will get better, certainly, it could be a lot worse. Also, I want to reiterate to never give up on your dreams, even though far-fetched or abnormal people make them seem, you can make anything happen for yourself, if you believe in yourself.

The average person spends nearly twenty-five years of their life sleeping. But in all that time you can get a lot more than just a healthy night's rest. With the art of lucid dreaming-or becoming fully conscious in the dream state-you can find creative inspirations, promote emotional healing, gain rich insights into your waking reality, and much more. Now, with Lucid Dreaming: A Concise Guide to Awakening in Your Dreams and in Your Life, Stephen LaBerge invites you on a guided journey to learn to use conscious dreaming in your life. Distilled from his more than twenty years of pioneering research at Stanford University and the Lucidity Institute-including many new and updated techniques and discoveries-here is the most effective and easy-to-learn tool available for you to begin your own fascinating nightly exploration into Lucid Dreaming.....Stephen Laberge, Ph.D. entered this world in 1947. As an Air Force brat, he saw much of the planet, and developed a keen interest in science as a means of understanding the cosmos. In 1967, he obtained his bachelor's degree in mathematics after two years at the University of Arizona, and began graduate studies in chemical physics at Stanford University. Following a hiatus spent in quest of the holy Grail, he returned to Stanford and laid the groundwork for his pioneering breakthroughs in lucid-dreaming research, obtaining his Ph.D. in psychophysiology in 1980. Since then, he has been continuing work at Stanford studying lucid dreaming and psycho physiological correlates of states of consciousness. In 1988, acting on his conviction that lucid dreaming offers many benefits to humanity, Dr. LaBerge founded the Lucidity Institute, the mission of which is to advance research on the nature and potentials of consciousness and to apply the results of this research to the enhancement of human health and well-being.
