Fun, interesting, thought-provoking. After all, this type of book is not so much about telling a person answers to their questions. The enjoyment of this book is that i gives readers ideas so they can draw their own conclusions.

I bought this book as a gift, and the person who received the book thoroughly enjoyed it. The book has led to some interesting conversations.

I've seen 1001 dreams and this book ain't helping. Ah who cares for repressed thoughts and emotions, amiright?

This is a one stop shop for very particular dreams symbols. Sometimes there are primary sources as to their interpretation and other times there are not. Overall, an okay book.

having bad dreams lately, I pulled this off my bookshelves to look a few things up. I feel like they are attributing way to many dreams to "this dream means you are thinking about sex". that's not always the case, peoples :D I need to learn how to stop dwelling, and then maybe my dreams wouldn't be repetitively bad.

As much as one would enjoy the illustrations , this books is merely based on some basic psychological theories and i don't even find many of them sound reasonable . Seems like the material's from the book "You Can Understand Your Dreams" by David Fontana , haven't read that one but this little books is more to watch its almost surreal illustrations .

I hate how there's only a select few things to look up, it says 1001 but it's ridiculous things, it doesn't even have simple things like dreaming about a boyfriend or anything. when most people dream of a significant other.

I keep this little book by my bed and use it to decode weird dreams in the morning. Its fun but I don't take all the meanings seriously and as thick as that little book is I wish it had a broader selection of words to look up.

Ik houd van de illustraties en de positieve en fantasievolle toon van het bijbeltje
