There are so many books, articles, and opinions on what dreams mean that it can be very confusing. Most of the time when I read articles on the subject I am left with a feeling of dissatisfaction, knowing in my deeper self that what is said is just not true.
When I look at my own or others’ dreams for interpretation I use what I call the Hebraic method rather than the Jungian method. This is based on my own understanding of spiritual reality, as I believe there is a personal Deity, whom I call God, who is intimately involved in my life and uses my dreams to communicate with me. There is a big difference in viewing the message of your dreams from this outer perspective and looking at them as your “talking to yourself.”
Over the years of studying dream interpretation from this perspective I have come to understand the importance of learning how to speak in metaphors, parables, analogies, and allegories. Once you are able to look at your dreams and your life with a larger perspective you will marvel at the diversity of ways that God speaks today.
In response to this new language I have developed a guide which I call Dreamspeak, Guide to the Symbolic Language of Dreams. It is more than a listing of dream symbols and their meanings, it is a compilation of elements and their diverse meanings in the language of Dreamspeak. It includes 2000 entries, meanings of colors, meanings of numbers, meanings of Hebrew letters and their numerical values, different types of dreams you may have, countries and their mottoes, states and their nicknames and mottoes, Jewish prayers for preparation for sleep, and a section which I call “Perils of Spiritual Language” which is a listing of terms and their definitions in the hope that those of us from different spiritual backgrounds can understand each other. Feel free to let me know if you would like to purchase a copy.
