The Candycane Flavored with Reality and Dreams

Well, the word candycane seem's perhaps a little misfit for a description of how this book has influenced my vision of life, but it is the most accurate archetype I can think of in this world that can fully capture the niftyness and mysticalness of this book. It was the first book to guide me in the direction of another pursuit of perspective of myself and the world, through the window of dreams. Back to the candycane though, to put it short, this book swirls waking life and dream conscience into one. It has been a treat to read, from start to end.Kaplan has written a masterpiece, full of intricate mysteries, and crystalized many things for me. The set up of the book is practical! And the cover still intrigues me! This book has allowed me to see just how much we live in a dream world. Thank You For Listening, For those searching for just that ideal book on dreams, every page of this book shares more then you can imagine. Thank You Connie for showing me your insight, I am one step closer now. Buh Bye Corinne Meier 17, Miami, Florida

Your dreams connect you to your soul!

Connie Kaplan's book could revolutionize your life by changing your picture of yourself. Instead of seeing dreams as clues to your past, you will find that they are messages from your soul, guiding you into the future. She offers hints about dream interpretation that go far beyond the old "dream books" and even beyond psychology. This book is a very important tool for the serious spiritual inquirer.

Excellent, practical guide to dreamwork with others

This book is wonderful - it approaches a subject that is vast and overwhelming in a down-to-earth way. The author and her companions in dream circle take their dreaming and their observations seriously, rather than making pie-in-the-sky generalizations. Highly recommended if you want to go beyond the endless dream interpretation books and work within the dreamweave.

A revolutionary look at dreaming!

The Woman's Book of Dreams liberated me from my habit of psychoanalyzing my dreams. The idea that I actually dream with other dreamers to create the future is revolutionary. I love the idea of charting my dreams according to the moon. It's a lovely book. Read it!
