'A dream which is not interpreted is like a letter which is not
read.' The Talmud
Integrating traditional dream analysis with family psychology,
clinical science, and parapsychology, Edward Bruce Bynum, Ph.D.,
ABPP, details how our personal unconscious is interwoven into our
larger family unconscious. He shows how these dreamlife connections
and patterns are as old as humanity itself, exploring ancient dream
traditions from around the world. He explains how the dreamlife of
a family can be viewed as a shared field or hologram, where each
family member is enfolded into the dreams of the other members.
This shared reality reveals itself in family and personal
illnesses, in nightmares and unusual dreams, and during critical
times such as crisis, pregnancy, conflicts, and medical
emergencies. It also reveals itself in cases of simultaneous shared
dreams and telepathic and precognitive dreams, explaining why so
many people have dreams in which a family member appears to say
good-bye, waking the next day to discover the same loved one has
passed away.

How to Catch a Dream.
Originally published in Great Britain in 1972 and distilled from
the collective wisdom of the great interpreters of dreams - Freud,
Jung, Adler, Stekel and Gutheil, among others - this comprehensive
key to the baffling language of dream symbolism is a
thought-provoking and invaluable guide to the uncharted country of
the mind. Tom Chetwynd has isolated for the first time the rich
meanings of over 500 archetypal symbols from the indiscriminate
mass of dream material, and rated the likelihoods of the various
possible interpretation in each case. Here are the essential clues
to understanding the ingeniously disguised, life-enriching, often
urgent messages to be found in dreams.
For Freud, dreams were the royal road to the unconscious: through
the process of interpretation, the manifest and sometimes
bewildering content of dreams can be traced back to the unconscious
representations underlying it. But can we understand dreams in
another way by considering how the unconscious is structured by our
social experiences? This is hypothesis that underlies this highly
original book by Bernard Lahire, who argues that dreams can be
interpreted sociologically by seeing the dream as a nocturnal form
of self-to-self communication. Lahire rejects Freud's view that the
manifest dream content is the result of a process of censorship: as
a form of self-to-self communication, the dream is the symbolic
arena most completely freed from all forms of censorship. In
Lahire's view, the dream is a message which can be understood only
by relating it to the social world of the dreamer, and in
particular to the problems that concern him or her during waking
life. As a form of self-to-self communication, the dream is an
intimate private diary, providing us with the elements of a
profound and subtle understanding of who and what we are. Studying
dreams enables us to discover our most deep-seated and hidden
preoccupations, and to understand the thought processes that
operate within us, beyond the reach of our volition. The study of
dreams and dreaming has largely been the preserve of
psychoanalysis, psychology and neuroscience. By showing how dreams
are connected to the lived experience of individuals in the social
world, this highly original book puts dreams and dreaming at the
heart of the social sciences. It will be of great value to students
and scholars in sociology, psychology and psychoanalysis and to
anyone interested in the nature and meaning of dreams.

Almost everyone wakes up in the morning and thinks ‘Why did I dream that?’ Until now, dream dictionaries offered only frustratingly inaccurate and overly generalized definitions of dream symbols. Now, the pioneering author of Living Your Dreams examines the most common dream themes – falling, flying, being chased, missing the bus, standing naked in the road, among others – and provides readers with practical tools for discovering the distinct meaning of their very personal dreams.Recognizing that dreams can only really be understood in the context of the dreamer’s life history, experience, and associations with each symbol or topic, Delaney teachers readers how to look at dreams by theme and setting, offering general interpretations as well as a unique ‘interview’ technique to translate the personal language of their dreams. Delaney also explores the dream theories of past experts such as Freud and Jung. Engaging and interactive, In Your Dreams allows readers to interpret their dreams as only they can – and to use the insight of those dreams to discover meanings in their waking lives.
*THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER* What is a dream? Why do we dream?
How do our bodies and minds use dreams? These questions are the
starting point for this unprecedented, astonishing study of the
role and significance of dreams, from the beginning of human
history. An investigation on the grand scale, encompassing
literature, anthropology, religion, and science, it articulates the
essential place dreams occupy in human culture, and how they
functioned as the catalyst that compelled us to transform our
earthly habitat into a human world. From the earliest cave
paintings - where the author finds a key to humankind's first
dreams, which contributed to our capacity to perceive past and
future - to cutting-edge scientific research, Ribeiro arrives at
startling and revolutionary conclusions about the role of dreams in
human existence and evolution. He explores the advances that
contemporary neuroscience, biochemistry and psychology have made
into the connections between sleep, dreams, and learning, before
revealing what dreams have taught us about the neural basis of
memory and the transformation of memory in recall. And he makes
clear that the earliest insight into dreams as oracular has been
confirmed by contemporary research. Accessible, authoritative, and
fascinating from first to last, The Oracle of Night gives us a
wholly new way to understand this most basic of human experiences.

Unlock the powerful wisdom of dreams. This enchanting book teaches
readers to listen to the wisdom of their unconscious mind and tap
into their innermost desires through the art of intuitive dream
interpretation. The book provides a range of rituals-energy
practices, crystal work, affirmations, and more-to prepare the

"Dream Patterns" teaches readers to identify the significant,
meaningful patterns in their dreams and how to use that knowledge
to make changes in their waking lives. Almost every book on dream
interpretation emphasizes the interpretation of individual elements
of individual dreams. But dreams contain much imagery that is not
meaningful or interpretable. "Dream Patterns" shows how to break
through the noise created by physical sensations, events of the
previous day, intrusions of conscious thinking, and other stimuli
to reveal repeating imagery and themes that reflect unrecognized
patterns in our waking lives. Awareness of these patterns liberates
us from them and empowers us to live our life more skillfully. This
book is for dreamers of all skill levels, from people who rarely
recall and have never before studied their dreams to people who
have spent years studying their dreams but who want to get more out
of them. You will learn how to recall, record, and analyze your
dreams, and then how to apply the lessons of those dreams to your
waking lives. While "Dream Patterns" emphasizes long-term patterns
and expresses skepticism about the value of most individual dreams,
it does teach you also to recognize and benefit from those few
dreams that really are significant in isolation. Such dreams
include "big dreams" that reflect major life and spiritual changes.
