As a rule, I don’t like them. Read any dream dictionary online and you will see that they are not only outright incestuous, but also ultimately shallow. However, when they are properly executed, I do think dream dictionaries can be a valuable resource for guiding you in your research of symbols and their meaning. What you see below is the very beginning of a process that will continue to unfold over time. That process takes time because it involves covering the history of the symbol and its archetypal meaning, as well as providing you with related resources that will help you amplify a symbol’s meaning in your dream.
As this dream dictionary stands, I don’t like it – but people want it, so I had to start it. Admittedly, though I gave general guidelines to my writers, I have not written it. It needs massive editing, which I will do as I’m generating the material for the articles.
Again, I ask for your patience. If you are curious about a dream image and don’t see it here, please feel free to make contact. It helps me determine what symbols to cover first.
And now, read the material below only with a grain of salt. My beloved writers gave it a good try, but as far as really giving you the symbol’s meaning, it’s overall missing the mark. I will be writing it from here on.
