Concise Definitions

This book is a collection of straightforward dream symbolism definitions. Quite thick with a plethora of symbols for defining & better understanding one's dreams. Would recommend for its simplicity.

my favorite dream book

This is my favorite dream interpretation book. It's set up like a dictionary. I've had other dream books but they didn't seem to fit me as well. I like the idea of animal totems and this author definitely drew on those interpretations too which I like. Another nice thing is that alternate interpretations and information on other cultures and what dreaming of a particular animal or thing would have meant to them is also included. Each entry also has other related topics to explore. Goddesses are mentioned here and there in the entries.

Dare to Dream

A truly fresh look at dream interpretation that includes ways of understanding modern symbolism from various cultural/situational standpoints
