Product Description

Product Description

Unlock the secrets of your dreamlife with the latest in the hugely popular series of ‘Element Encyclopedias’. This is the most comprehensive A–Z reference book on dream interpretation you'll ever find.

Have you ever wondered what your dreams are trying to tell you?

Sixth in the series of ‘Element Encyclopedias’, this is the definitive guide to dream interpretation. Packed with fascinating information, The Element Encyclopedia of 20,000 Dreams is an extensive collection of the symbols that appear in your dreams and how to interpret what they mean for you.

Dreams are universal and every culture throughout history has tried to unlock the secrets of the unconscious mind through the interpretation of dreams. Understanding the unique meanings of dream symbols can help in the way you experience your waking everyday lives and even foretell the future.

Divided into easy-to-follow A–Z themed sections, from Animals, Conflict and Foreign Countries, to Monsters, Sex and Weather, this book holds compelling definitions of thousands of dream symbols that can also be found in the quick-reference Dream Directory at the back of the book.

Find out about the variety of dream types – such as cathartic, lucid and precognitive dreams – plus dreams in history and folklore. Discover different traditions of dream interpretation and dream theorists – for example, analytical psychologist Carl Jung thought that cats in dreams represent the secretive side of a person's nature, and they can also denote a desire for sex or a warning of hidden dangers.

Whatever your dream symbol or experience, you'll find an amazing treasure trove of interpretations here in The Element Encyclopedia of 20,000 Dreams.

misleading 30 Jan 2011
I've been using this book for about half a year and have to say, although having tried hard to like it, it is really not that great. First of all, don't be fooled by the title, this book does not contain 20,000 dream symbols. My estimation comes to about 3500, all of which are dealt with way too briefly and don't give away anything deep let alone useful. You may be much better off using the numerous online databases and combine the information found. The title may just mean that 20,000 dream were analysed for the development of this book. If so, it is very misleading especially because many interesting symbols have been excluded.
Another problem is the structure. For some reason it is not that simple to find things in it as the index will direct you to various pages that all contain mostly rediculously short references of the symbol in question.
On the other hand, it can be entertaining by just flicking around reading passages. As long as you are not seriously trying to make sense out of your dreams it does no harm standing in your bookshelf.
