You could not have written a worse book if you tried. The only interpretation that was accurate is that it’s good to dream about bacon. 😂 It was worth a good laugh at the ridiculousness though. 😄

I found this at goodwill and I will never regret spending $2.29 more. The interpretations fall into 3 categories: "you will be sick",painfully obvious, or overly vague. I actually asked three other people about their dreams and what they ended up meaning, cross referencing with answers on Google. All three said that the book was way off and that Google did it better. I agree with them that it heavily missed the mark.

DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK IT’S SO STUPID

Few of these interpretations make any sense even in a symbolic context. Most of these are like “if it’s a bad dream it’s actually good and if it’s a good dream it’s bad”
If you dream about the Bible good things happen but if you dream about the devil watch out cuz that’s bad. Good grief this book is only good for fire-starters.

Here are some examples:

Mockery:
if you mock someone beware new people wanting to be your friend. If someone mocks you it foretells new friendships

How could being mocked in a dream possibly represent new friendships??
Being mocked in a dream probably actually represents your inner critic or something like that. These interpretations are dogsh*t.

“Drunkenness:
Unfavorable dream if you’re drunk on heavy liquors, indicating profligacy and loss of employment. You will be disgraced by stooping to forgery or theft. However if drunk on wine you’ll be fortunate in business and in love”

Ok so liquor you’re a piece of sh bum who steals but if it’s wine you’ll be a big shot. This makes absolutely no sense wtf

Half of these interpretations are fortune telling doom and financial crisis. Isn’t dream analysis just supposed to be a view into your own subconscious? Not divination? Like this is terrible!!!

This book is really not useful to me at all and I regret wasting my money on it. I can’t take any of these entries seriously as they’re absolute nonsense. DO NOT BUY THIS JUST USE THE INTERNET

Interesting. First dream book I have read. Not sure I agree with all of it but it's cool for fun in the same way horoscopes can be.
