Book excerpt: There have been many previous books on the physiology of dreaming, the history of dream interpretation, and the meaning of specific dream symbols. But there have been relatively few books exploring the moment-by-moment process of interpreting dreams. This book guides you through this interpretive process, and illustrates how dreamwork promotes emotional, relational, and spiritual transformation. It explores how working with dreams enhances our emotional life, deepens our capacity for relationship, and helps us gracefully navigate change and transitions. The author shows that dreamwork is a natural antidepressant, is effective in transforming anger, bereavement, couples conflicts and impasses, and aids the process of individuation. The book explores archetypal themes and complexes, synchronistic experiences and spiritual awakening in dreams, and representations of the body in dreams. The final chapter, "Taming Wild Horses", explores animal dream symbolism and its importance for enhancing our human sexuality. The book also describes the Dream Mandala, a method of self-transformation through the union of opposites - the charged polarities of the personality.

Book excerpt: A fascinating strand of the human potential movement of the 1960s involved the dream mystique of a previously unknown Malaysian tribe, the Senoi, first brought to the attention of the Western world by adventurer-anthropologist-psychologist Kilton Stewart. Exploring the origin, attraction, and efficacy of the Senoi ideas, G. William Domhoff also investigates current research on dreams and concludes that the story of Senoi dream theory tells us more about certain aspects of American culture than it does about this distant tribe. In analyzing its mystical appeal, he comes to some unexpected conclusions about American spirituality and practicality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C. G. Jung, ?A dream is nothing but a lucky idea that comes to us from the all-unifying world of the psyche.'* It is not necessary that we accept his statement on faith, or even understand it. Instead we can all look to our own experience of dreams. We know when our understanding of a dream hits home; we can feel it. When we pay attention to our dreams, we open windows to unfi ltered parts of ourselves. By allowing the dreams to penetrate our waking consciousness we enable parts of ourselves to stitch back together; we begin to feel a little more whole. Although eople throughout the world and across time have been fascinated by dreams, their ways of understanding them vary as widely as do the cultures of the dreamers.In this book I have brought together a variety of perspectives ondreams so that you, the dreamer, can discover what is helpful to you. Some selections are specifi cally about dreams; others are about how symbols can be helpful in understanding dreams. How did the founders of psychoanalysis suggest we work with dreams? What have contemporary psychologists contributed to the study of dreams? Does scientific sleep research provide helpful nformation? What insights do indigenous peoples offer for understanding nightmares? In what way have spiritual traditions addressed dreams? We can learn from all the ways that peoplebefore us have used and understood dreams. Mine them all for answers to your own questions.

Book excerpt: A leader of dream workshops and seminars details a unique, nine-step approach to understanding dreams, using contemporary dreamwork techniques developed from shamanic cultures around the world. Conscious Dreaming shows you how to use your dreams to understand your past, shape your future, get in touch with your deepest desires, and be guided by your higher self. Author Robert Moss explains how to apply shamanic dreamwork techniques, most notably from Australian Aboriginal and Native American traditions, to the challenges of modern life and embark on dream journeys. Moss's methods are easy, effective, and entertaining, animated by his skillful retelling of his own dreams and those of his students—and the dreams' often dramatic insights and outcomes. According to Moss, some shamans believe that nothing occurs in ordinary reality unless it has been dreamed first. In the dreamscape, we not only glimpse future events, we can also develop our ability to choose more carefully between possible futures. Conscious Dreaming's innovative system of dream-catching and transpersonal interpretation, of dream re-entry adn keeping a dream journal enables the reader to tap the deepest sources of creativity and intuition and make better choices in the critical passages of life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book to approach reincarnation from the perspective of dreams • Identifies soul bloodlines, the key to past life therapies • Combines the author’s own experiences with case studies and dreamwork with empirical research • Reveals how the analyst and client are often karmically linked In Past Life Dreamwork, Sabine Lucas examines “soul bloodlines”--character traits, talents, and life issues that are the common elements and circumstances of successive past lives. Found threaded through our dreams, these bloodlines reveal the forces manifesting in this life, and, taken together, they shape individuality as well as destiny within the reincarnation cycle. Though a wealth of past life related material regularly surfaces in dreams, until now dreamwork has been largely ignored as a therapy for successfully integrating past life experiences. Using the results of 27 years of personal and professional work, Lucas explains that past life memories help us work out karma on the macro level and trauma on a micro level. She distinguishes three types of past life dreams--classic, informatory, and hybrid--and demonstrates how to distinguish these from other dreams. Her dramatic case studies illustrate the effectiveness of dream therapy in recognizing and integrating the resonant and recurrent circumstances and ethical dilemmas that are played out in the subconscious mind. These psychologically revealing stories bear witness to how individuals are made whole through the integration of common strands of forgotten or repressed past lives. Lucas shows that the integration of past lives enriches the conscious self and also promotes universal tolerance through an understanding of the patterns of our psychic soul inheritance.
