Editorial Reviews

04/01/2015
Dream interpreter/psychologist Lennox (Dream Sight) here compiles over 1,000 alphabetically arranged entries covering symbols in dreams and their significance. The author feels there is "no wrong way to interpret a dream" and discusses how to "approach the landscape of the dream world itself." One of his intriguing perspectives states that people we meet in our dreams reflect us. He also explores "the shadow," which is the darker side of the unconscious. Throughout the book, Lennox cites masculine and feminine principles, noting that both are at work within people no matter their gender. Masculine refers to "doing, taking action and being decisive," whereas feminine covers "the idea of being, creativity and receptivity." He calls the ocean, the unconscious mind, the land, the conscious mind and all birds messengers. Archetypes such as the witch, the wizard, and the angel provide powerful dream imagery. Various animals (cat, dog, deer, elephant) are considered along with chakras, colors (e.g., blue represents communication) and numbers (e.g., eight stands for infinity). Familiar types of dreams such as "teeth falling out," "taking a test," and "being chased" are also analyzed. Dreams are a popular topic with patrons so it is advisable to have a variety of sources with different and current points of view. While dream theory is subjective, Lennox proposes some riveting ideas in this affordable guide. There is also some helpful cross-referencing (the index was not seen). VERDICT While the search for meaning in dreams is often elusive, Lennox provides some knowledge of the issues with which readers' unconscious minds may be wrestling.—Barbara Kundanis, Longmont P.L., CO
