I'm trying to help a friend work through the details of recurring dreams, my dream book stinks, can anyone help?
I searched about 50 in the past and this is the
one I use at least once a week. When you go
there, click on "Dream Dictionary" and then
choose the letter that responds to the most
prevalent topic in the dream. They are VERY
thorough. Wait until the page is finished loading
before you click anything. It acts strangely if not.
"Inner Work&qfree dream dictionaryuot; by Robert Johnson, is a dream analysis book based on Jungian psychology.
But, unless you're a bit familiar with Jungian psychology and agree with his concept of "individuation" (spiritual/psychological process by which we become whole/perfect) then it's meaningless. However, if you read a simple introduction to Jungian pscychology and are intrigued then you will find this method of working with dreams quite valuable.
Note that Jung would assert that the content of dreams are the way that our free dream dictionarytrue SELF communicates with our conscious selves in order to guide us along the path of spiritual growth. A recurring dream would represent some issue that must be resolved in order for growth to occur. The method for working with dreams involves listing the situations, people and objects in the dream and then going through a process of determining what the dream symbolizes in a person's conscious/waking life.
Anyway, I found it worthwhile, but it's a lot of work.
