Not Your Typical Dream Book

Originally published under the title Studies in Dream Symbolism, this book does not reveal anything new under sun of the dream world. Freemason and philosopher Manly P. Hall gives his take, although unique, view on the symbols of dreams. The book discusses the ancient oracles, and past dreamers of ancient Greece and Biblical tales of the psyche. There is no reference of Freud or Jung here, or even other major contributors of dreaming, however, Hall does take a logical approach to understanding your dreams. Its not written in a step by step process, or a how-to guide. Its completely informative. Basically, after one writes their dreams down for dissection, they will take something from their dream and make associations. A rabbit, for instance is fast and it hops. Its small with big ears. These are typical traits of a rabbit, so one may presume that those traits are within yourself, or how you view the world. Hall's writing style, in this book, unlike others I found messy and unorganized. I was unsure of what some of his ideas were as they were not always clear. Although I like Halls work, this was, thus far, my least favorite. I gave it three stars for his approach to dream symbolism and I personally agree that the route to understanding your dreams described here is a credible one.
