About this product

Product Information

The interpretation of dreams and the images that pervade them is a perennially popular subject that has challenged philosophers, psychiatrists, and lay people for centuries. In The Secret Language of Dreams, author and psychologist David Fontana combines the theories of Freud, Jung, and others -- as well as his own years of experience in leading dream work-shops -- with a unique, visual approach to dreams and dream symbolism. At the heart of this informative and accessible volume is a 100-page "dream directory" -- an illustrated guide to common dream motifs,organized under both thematic headings (such as "Anxiety," "Change and Transition," and "Sexuality") and symbol headings (such as "Flying,""The Body," and "Animals") to help readers unlock the meanings behind the images in their dreams and to better understand their significance. Complete with a chapter on utilizing the coded messages of dreams to foster self-discovery and personal enrichment, this fascinating and imaginative look at the mysterious landscape of dreams is both an enlightening reference and a resourceful gift for the inquiring reader.

-- NAPRA Trade Journal , Holiday 1994 If you're not already aware of your Dreamtime world, this tactilely and visually stimulating gem will likely get you going, helping you to understand what your subconscious might be trying to communicate. Instead of reading like a dictionary, though, The Secret Language of Dreams is organized by themes, states of being, types of interactions, and, of course, symbols. This broader perspective opens doors for self-interpretation that otherwise might be lost with symbolic interpretations only.

  • The Secret Language of Dreams

    I had been having some dreams that seemed to repeat themselves- very strong visual pictures and in color. No clue as to the meanings, they weren't obvious one's to decipher, so I enlisted the help of a few books. This is 1 of the better I have read. I am moving from New York to California very soon, so I wanted to see what my mind was "saying" or NOT saying ,etc. This book takes kind of a different approach to dreaming based on imaginative exploration rather than "scientific" analysis. Helped me to understand and learn from my dreams by tracing their hidden significance, including the ways in which dream symbols interact with each other in MEANINGFUL sequences!! (I was beginning to think I was losing my mind). Also has a 100 page "dream dictionary" for symbols and their significance-great ...

  • Coffee table, not reference

    The illustrations in this book are wonderful. There is some history of psychological dream theory, both from Freud and Jung's perspectives. The dreams you may be looking up are categorized by theme, and also by symbol, but the information provided is NOT nearly as specific as a "dream dictionary", only a very rough guideline in interpreting dreams.

  • THE PRICE IS RIGHT.

    I LOVE THE TITLE AND I BOUGHT IT BECAUSE IT WAS A GREAT PRICE AND THE AURTHOR WAS ALSO WHY I BOUGHT IT.
