What Is a Dream?

First, I will tell you how to distinguish between a real dream and an unreal dream. Our soul is ever awake and guards our body both night and day. When the body sleeps the soul, like the wireless waves of the radio, travels many places and sometimes contacts other souls, and in this way dreams are made.

The unreal dream or nightmare, as some of us refer to a bad dream, is caused by the body cramping the heart or you are lying in an uncomfortable position; or perhaps you have eaten something that disagreed with you. The soul takes the best care of the body, and when this condition exists, the soul knows the body's needs, and at once the soul will record a terrible happening, to arouse the body so that it will change its position or wake up. You may dream that you are falling, or there is a terrible fire, or a bad animal is chasing you, something most generally to scare you, and when you do awaken after such a dream, you will feel weak or exhausted. This is caused by the body not properly resting. This dream is called an unreal dream, so if you have such a dream, just disregard it for it has no meaning whatsoever.

A real dream is one that takes place and does not disturb you, and you can easily recall every incident afterwards. It will seem very real. Dreams like this have decided meanings. They come as a forewarning of approaching good or evil.

To have the best guiding dreams you should go to sleep without worry. If you have troubles, relax, try to dismiss them from your mind. If you will dismiss everything from your mind when you retire, your soul will record many happenings upon your blank receptive mind before you wake up. The soul goes here and there and contacts many places and other souls while the body sleeps, and the information the soul gathers while the body rests wiII help you solve your many problems in your waking hours, and a neutral mind will help the soul in receiving messages others send you from a distance.

In this book I have given you the psychic interpretation of nearly 600 dreams. The object of this dream book is to teach you to decipher your own dreams. It is very easy if you will quietly analyze everything you dreamed about.

The words I have selected to interpret for you are the most outstanding. Many words have a similar meaning and if I were to list all the meanings here, there would be much repetition. Many dreams, like words have a similar meaning. I have given you thorough interpretations for you to follow in deciphering your dreams; for instance:

Animals all come under the same classifications as far as interpreting their meaning. All flowers likewise have the same significance. All trees and shrubs indicate similar meanings.

Therefore, if I should list all of the different individual names of similar things it would merely make a repetition. When you are interpreting your dream, keep this thought in mind. If you cannot find the exact thing you dreamed about, try to find something listed in the book that is similar, something that falls into the same classification. Then quietly think of it and you will be surprised how you can interpret the meaning of your own dreams.

There are only three kinds of dreams: the actual contacts of your soul with others while you sleep, good prophecies, and warnings.

I hope this will teach you how to dream and how to interpret your dreams and may all your dreams be helpful, guiding ones.
