The Gift of Dreams by Rose Inserra
The Gift of Dreams is a beautiful guide to understanding your dreams. From the earliest known dream dictionary found in ancient Egypt, written on papyrus and dated 1250 BCE, to the work of Sigmund Freud, who analyzed and interpreted dreams as part of psychoanalysis, dreams have long been regarded as a gateway to understanding yourself.
About one-third of our lives is spent sleeping and dreaming, and dreams can be exhilarating, terrifying, moving, and sometimes, if you can decode the secrets that they are telling you, life-changing.
The Gift of Dreams provides detailed descriptions for over 50 different dream themes and motifs and what they may mean, from a hospital (which may signal a health concern) or missing a bus (which can indicate your real-life feeling that you are missing out on something) to water dreams (which can variously mean rebirth, emotional issues, and cleansing). Special features include sleep states, why we dream, remembering your dreams, and weaving the magic of dreams into our lives.
In The Gift of Dreams you will discover a fascinating inner world that provides wisdom, inspiration, and insight into your greatest self.
