Excellent.......2007-10-12
So many of thses books are just rehashed stuff from other sources. It all gets boring after awhile, with folks cashing in big-time on things Wattles and Haanel wrote years ago. I purchased this one on a whim, figuring what the heck, i can send it back if it's the same ol. No way. This one stays on the shelf. Ghalil offers a bit of a different take on the LOA and manifestation. A pleasant and engaging read, with step-by-step instructions. Too bad there's no coupons for free stuff. With all due haste, buy this book.
The WORST.......2007-09-22
I would say this book was a BIG waste of my money...yes it is well organized and all that BUT it was boring..other books written about the law of attraction are much better...clearer..easier to understand...
oh my god.......2007-05-19
This is such an easy read it is like having a conversation with someone who is telling you things in a straight forward way. The information in this is amazing and with the cd's I bought it has made such an AHA moment on every page.
As simple as it can get.......2007-05-13
Clear, concise, and to the point. Very well organized, and simple to understand. One of the better books on this subject. Definitely a keeper!
Insightful and Timely.......2007-03-20
Professional Dreamer fits pefectly with our new realization of the power of thought. Using Ghalil's six steps, you can learn how to master your thought processes and enjoy the benefits of the law of attraction. this book espouses similar ideas to The Secret and The Law of Attraction, two current bestsellers.

Excellent Dreamer's Dictionary.......2007-10-11
I have used the original book until it fell apart and now using this one. It has never failed me in giving good predictions on my dreams.
Ready to Switch.......2007-09-09
I've had this book for about ten years and am ready to switch. I kept it for so long because it is conservative and orderly. But it is completely lacking in certain subjects that are not uncommon. Also, because the authors are Brits, a lot of the vocabulary is very unfamiliar. It is also very dissappointing to look up a dream and be told all other factors in the dream must be looked up, but you get NO explanation at all of the subject of your dream. There are a lot of incomplete explanations as well,and no matter how many other factors you look up, it is impossible to piece these meanings together for a full explanation.Frusterating!
horoscopes.......2007-08-08
If you are into horoscopes, then this book is for you. If you think dreams are more about psychological issues that manifest themselves in dreams and you would like to discover the underlying phenomena of these dreams, then you will find the book inadequate from this perspective.
Not a lot of Meanings.......2007-07-31
This book isn't the best type for me it lacked a lot of basic dreams like sexual and things like that, of course if your not one to dream about vulgar things it also had me running around the book to find meanings, I had a dream of watching some one cheat but it had nothing on that, it had nothing on tornado's, another dream I had involved gun shots and I had to look up fights just to find something, if your not good at coming up with other names to explain something I'd suggest another book.
Favorite Dream Book!.......2007-07-05
I love this dream dictionary! It is amazing how this book helps you decode your dreams. Everyone should keep a dream journal and decode their dreams with this Dreamer's Dictionary.

Finally entered my Dream.......2006-07-18
This very excellent book finally manifested in my reality dream at the most appropriate point in my life, for which I'm grateful.
So many insights offered, especially potential life-changing effects of long term lucid dreaming.
It actually describes what the best use of lucid dreaming can be, other than the usual bland 'overcome your fears etc' mentality...(which still has it's place, of course)
Learning to become the silent witness in both the daytime and nighttime dream is the ultimate liberator...lucid dreaming can help you do that!
Everyone should read this book.......2006-03-06
I would strongly encourage anyone who has even a remote intrest in psychology, biology, biochemistry, asian philosophy, art (of any kind), literature, history, hallucinogens, dreaming (of course)...
Everyone needs to read this book. Everything you didn't know you wanted to know about lucid dreaming. And it's full of great photos and images and diagrams as well.
If you cast your net into the sea of dreams you could write a novel, nearly every night, with the catch you pull in... And once you go lucid you are no longer stuck on the shore, you are adrift on a fantastic galleon, on the sea that is the imagination...
Go get this book today, quit sleeping, it's time to dream!
Dream fuel.......2005-09-24
I love this book. It has so much in it, covering lucid dreaming across many different cultures. It also features some great artwork.
My friend is interested in learning about lucid dreaming so I got him this book as I know it'll get him hooked.
The Sleeper Must Awaken!.......2005-09-19
This book is a treasure. I am totally amazed that it is not THE top rated Lucid Dreaming book here on Amazon! I have read Lebergs work Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming and the Tibeta Yogas of Dream and Sleep but THIS book breaks Lucid Dreaming and reality down to such a level that it is simultaneously liberating and frightening to comprehend: You are dreaming your reality wherever you perceive it, and the Dream is dreaming you as well as all that is in the dream! Pick up a cup of water and drink, but then think, not only are you dreaming that cup and the water but the water in the cup and the cup are dreaming you! Cuts your ego-mind to pieces! You are just as insubstantial as all that you perceive so why so serious?
Any system that would have you take it and it's "preachers and teachers" too seriously with conditional joy is control.
This book really has helped my dream recall on the path to Lucidity and the art is essential also because the language of spirit/the unconsciousness is symbol and visual imagery. The pictures in this book help to communicate to your spirit what mere words that do not evoke imagery in your mind cannot.
This book was recommended to me and I am so glad I followed through and got it. If you can remember the freedom and magic you had as a child, and think of all the cases of psychic activity which always occurs around children, and want to work on remembering your birthright GET THIS BOOK and awaken!
Beautiful.......2004-08-20
A wonderful book that covers all areas of the topic from the religious to the scientific "facts." Filled with incredible art, I highly recommend this beautiful book. Many techniques are included to help you experience this phenomenon.

Excellent Resource Material.......2007-08-27
This is a very informative and resourceful book. This book is good reference manual. This book is a keepsake book...Every Dreamer or Visonary should have this book in their collection.
Understanding The Dreams You Dream Volume 2.......2007-02-22
This book is a great companion to the book Understanding the dreams you dream. It is very informative. The first book gives you great definitions and symbolic meanings to different things in your dreams. This book gives you a great guide to interpretation of your dreams. Any Christian wanting to understand how God speaks to you in dreams should get both books. It has great biblical keys and scriptures...
Understanding the Dreams You Dream Vol.2.......2007-01-16
This did not have the same kind of information as the first book. More reading and harder to find information as quickly as in Vol. 1.
A great prophetic reference.......2004-12-30
I was directed to this book by the Lord and have been able to make very good progress using this book to understand the dreams and visions given.
The root meaning of numbers, the different colors, the directions....I am just so thankful that this book is available.
This is indeed a great tool for God's people to understand His message, and a must-read for prophetic people.
Great Christian Dream Reference Book.......2004-01-10
Purchased and read this book this past holiday season. Excellent book on the meanings of symbols in God given dreams. Definately a future reference book for my dreams.

Has some interesting points in the introduction. . . but the dictionary is just ok. Personally, I think the explanations all sound like the same reworded over & over again. I will probably buy a different book.

I stumbled on this book and read the reviews. They were all right! Great book!
a wonderful dream resource.......2006-11-10
for those who want a deeper insight into their dreams, this comprehensive book approaches the subject with insight and wisdom. keep it on the nightstand for quick reference.
Best Dream Book I ever bought and USED!.......2006-10-27
This is the most modern dream book I have EVER seen, that uses modern day symbols and has definitions that actually make sense. I have tried a LOT of dream dictionaries, and this is the best of the lot, I got rid of my others. You won't find anything like if you dream of ice cream you'll have an unexpected visitor bring you a million dollars.
Make sure you don't skip over the Introduction! There is invaluable information in there.
I can't praise this book enough. For people who want to work with their dreams without being overwhelmed, this book is the answer. It's possible to go as deep as you want with this book, and also to get a good grasp of your dreams in a quick time.
Thanks Kelly!!!
This Book Rocks!.......2006-10-25
This is not your typical dream book. Does it offer you a translation of snakes? Yes. Does it offer you a translation of snakes in the boardroom & in the bedroom? Absolutely! A must own.

David and Leigh Eddings introduce readers to their newly minted Land of Dhrall with The Elder Gods, the first book in the four-book Dreamers Saga. Dhrall is under the gentle rule of four gods representing the four compass points. These gods are reaching the end of their terms of power when the god of the North brings four children who are destined to take over for them into his siblings' lairs. The children are dreamers and able to see the possible outcome of battles in a coming war with the evil creature that controls the wasteland at the center of Drahll's map. Thus, the gods and their young charges undertake quests to hire mercenary armies and thwart the initial invasion into their lands.
The book unfolds like a children's primer. This pedantic style proves to be heavy-handed for adult readers and will quickly try their patience. If the Eddings were trying to concoct a book that would be suitable for reading aloud to fifth graders they've succeeded, but even the most die-hard fantasy fan will tire quickly of the sing-song approach and plot twists that can be sniffed out from miles away. --Jeremy Pugh
Book Description
In this major publishing event, David and Leigh Eddings-two of the most important names in epic fantasy-offer the first of a four-book series. While most continents float freely on the face of Mother Sea, the Land of Dhrall survives anchored by the will of the Gods. AllGods,Elder and Younger, share the people and the land of Dhrall equally. But the one place they never enter is The Wasteland: a barren and hideous wilderness ruled by the Vlagh-a god-like creature whose young are evil spawn. Now, as the Elder Gods are about to transfer their power to the Younger Gods, the Vlagh plans to take advantage of their weakened state and neutralize them, eventually conquering the world. To do so, it is breeding a terrible force borne of monsters and demons. But one ray of hope shines through the darkness: four children called the Dreamers. They alone hold the power to change the course of history....and stop the Vlagh in its quest for total world domination.

Disappointed, entirely.......2007-09-10
I have been a huge David Eddings fan from the Elenium, Belgariad, Malloreon, The Redemption of Althalus and was looking forward to a new series from him. So it was with excitement that I picked up this book.
I couldn't even finish it, I felt like I was reading written by a 13 year old from the pink dolphins to the pet lightning, ugh! I was bored almost to the point of dying from it. I was heartbroken too, David Eddings was a beacon of light in the fantasy genre, I loved Sparhawk from the opening paragraph of Diamond Throne through to the end, and Silk and all of the rest from those storylines, and Althalus. But this, this is too much and he will be needing to redeem himself if I am to be a reader again. I was sorely disappointed.
The author can, and has, done better .......2007-08-19
I was somewhat disappointed with this book, because it just doesn't seem to have the same pull as his earlier series, such as "The Belgariad" (which I enjoyed). Eddings seems to get more mileage out of the witty banter between a few of his supporting characters than he does out of the spectacle of God-like beings weilding mighty powers ... which doesn't really say a lot in favor of the book.
I just didn't feel 'the love' on this one ... the authors seem to just gloss over too many personal details about their characters in their rush to cover the events they obviously plot-scripted or battle-choreographed out for themselves. Physical descriptions, for instance, are relatively few and thin. Aside from the occasional mention of being short or tall, or perhaps having a colorful beard, the reader is left pretty much to fill in their own blanks on most of the finer details of what people look like. I'm not asking for multi-page descriptive excesses (ala Laurell K. Hamilton), but something other than next to nothing would have been more welcome. It almost felt like the authors were perhaps a bit lazy while cranking out their daily page quotas for this one. In the belgariad, I felt like the author had a good story he was really keen to tell, whereas this one feels a bit like he's just going though the motions.
Other nits, in no particular order:
* The geology implicit in the world maps on the book's inleaf make no sense whatsoever, and are also rather amateurish in both appearance and useful content.
* Scanty world details. I touched on this above, regarding lack of physical details, but it's really more pervasive. This book seems to be classic cookie-cutter fantasy with not enough meaningful real-world detail to effectively flesh it out. The authors do things like make references to fishing, but provide little in the way of participatory details for the reader - there's little mention of the type of fish caught, or how they're prepared and/or preserved. Ok, you net unspecified varieties of fish ... then what ? TELL ME. Ditto for references to hunting - other than a passing reference to deer, there's no details there either. I mean come on, give the reader something to see, smell, or chew on, otherwise the suspension of disbelief requires extra effort. Witty banter, and some clever flag signals, are just not enough. A good writer pulls the reader in with enticing details. If you leave out too many details, it's like reading a shooting script for a TV episode, and that's just boring.
Bottom line: the author can, and has, done better in the past. I'm probably going to skip the rest of this series, if book 1 is indicative of the quality of the writing
Utter Dreck!.......2007-06-12
Like others here, I had to simply give up. I made the mistake of thinking that since there was more than one book in the series already published, there must be some good material in there.
WRONG!
If I never hear the expression "...with no trace of a smile..." again, it'll be too soon. And a character who "never learned how to miss" with his bow? Puh-leeeeze! Plus, the romantic ambiguity between characters led me to wonder how this world ever became populated in the first place, as no one ever seems to get past the kissing stage --- and most of that occurs between adults and pre-adolescent Younger Gods.
In summary, the three words that best describe it are as follows, and I quote:
"Stink. Stank. Stunk."
You might want to give this one a second chance........2007-06-10
Don't let all the negative reviews put you off from this book. I read it when it first came out and just read it again recently and found it to be even more fun the second time around. The land of Dhrall is one of the most brilliantly crafted and richly peopled settings in the history of modern fantasy writing. The characters are very well drawn out and impossible to forget. I won't say all the criticism about the characters being similar to those from previous books by the authors or in regards to the bleeding dialog are wrong exactly but more misplaced in nature, I believe. For those of us who are fans of the Eddings' other works reading this book is like sitting down with some old friends. You may have heard some or even all of their stories and jokes before, but that doesn't subtract one bit from the joy of listening to their beloved voices tell them all over again.
Compared to all the drivel that passes for fantasy these days, this book stands out as a shinning star hidden behind a mountain of garbage. Do yourself a favor and climb that mountain. The view on the other side is pretty sweet.
Slow moving, lacks drama.......2007-06-08
I have enjoyed many other books by David Eddings, so grabbing the first three books of this series seemed like a wise decision. Alas, past performance does not guarantee future success.
The intial focal point of 'evil' in this series is called the Vlagh. Sadly, the Vlagh never sparked any emotions in me. Neither did the good guys. The battles, if you want to call them that were ho hum. The storyline provides not tension what-so-ever. There's nothing to engage you.
I will say that the Elder Gods at least left me with enough interest to read book 2 in the series, so I gave it a 2.

One of the greatest novels ever written.......2001-01-19
I read the other reviews on this page, and I thought I should add something: this novel is unbelievably beautifully written, and the english translation is absolutely superb.
You cannot find any better example of novel-writing skill in any language.
Mystical-Reality.......2000-09-21
I've read all parts of The Story of the Stone. It starts and ends in a mystical fashion; coming full circle in a traditional ying/yang way. Wonderful five volume story about two wealthy families closely connected to the throne. Although there's not much known about the true author, I suspect that it was written by a maid. There is incredible detail from the perspective of the servents working for their sometimes nutty employers. The family actually built a garden at one point in honor of a visit from a daughter who had been chosen to be a royal concubine. If you want to immerse yourself in the ups and downs, daily life, (warts and all) of 1750's Chinese culture don't miss The Story of the Stone et al.
A Truly Revolutionary Classical Chinese Romantic Work.......1999-03-18
This book was written one year before the French Revolution, in 1788, in Beijing, China by a riches-to -rags nobleman called Cao Xue Quin. It is viewed by many as the greatest classical Chinese romantic novel ever written.
I read the original Chinese version of this book when I was in high school, many years ago. At that time, my impression was that it was a Chinese Romeo and Juliet type tragic love story, in which the main characters Bao-yu and his cousin Dai-yu (Black Jade) suffered the fate of unfulfilled love, and no ever after. There was more to it than that, but I could not figure out what.
Recently, I re-read the book (the current trans- lated version). This time it sounded like the Adven- tures of Tom Jones, in which the teen-aged playboy Bao-yu was dallying in the ranks of the female members of his household (his cousins and maids), longing after many but only truly loving Dai-yu.
It was also a bit similar to Upstairs Downstairs -- a big noble clan with all its ladies, young misses and maids, and their lives of adventures and tears. But something was still missing. There was a theme, a message, which draws me and others to this great work of literature.
I finally figured it out: Almost all the WOMEN in this book were described as elegant, sophisticated, intelligent, graceful, excellent decision makers, and above all, beautiful. Most MEN, however, were described as fools, red-necks, unfaithful, heart-breakers, nogooders, users of prostitutes and abusers of power!
What I am looking at is a book (or one-MAN crusade) of Early Feminism. It is all the more remarkable because in feudal China, women did not have equal status. "marrying for love" seldom existed. It was more like "married by parental arrangement". Poor girls were sold as maids into rich households, or worse, they were sold as second wives or concubines.
The confirmation of my theory came from the author Cao himself. In his introductory book review, he said, "Thus begins this book ... I have hidden the real events and substituted them with fiction ... There were real persons in the inner-chambers, and their stories must be told ..." (Modern translation: I have real women in my household).
This message would make this a truly revolutionary work, not only in feudal China, but even to-day.
Should have first read the book review by the author.
I think I can't use only "good" to describe such a good book.......1998-12-04
The book gives us a complete picture of the feudal societ of China.It exposes the rot of the late Qing Dynasty of China.What makes people moved most is the tragic love story between Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu.Its exquisite style of writing and variegated description do great credit to its success.Some forfather has said that it was an encyclopaedia of the feudal society of China,and I do agree with it.I think that the most valuable point of this book,is that it denounces the cruel percecution which has been done to women by the feudalism--the feudal system,and it embodies the author's thoughts that women should be respecte and be equal to men.In that society,these are rare and valuable.
Book Description
A guidebook for communicating with the departed and gaining first-hand knowledge of life beyond death
• Reveals that the easiest way to communicate with the departed is through dreams
• Offers methods for helpful and timely communication with deceased loved ones
• Provides powerful Active Dreaming practices from ancient and indigenous cultures for journeying beyond the gates of death for wisdom and healing
We yearn for contact with departed loved ones. We miss them, ache for forgiveness or closure, and long for confirmation that there is life beyond physical death. In
The Dreamer’s Book of the Dead, Robert Moss explains that we have entirely natural contact with the departed in our dreams, when they come visiting and we may travel into their realms. As we become active dreamers, we can heal our relationship with the departed and move beyond the fear of death. We also can develop the skills to function as soul guides for others, helping the dying to approach the last stage of life with courage and grace, opening gates for their journeys beyond death, and even escorting them to the Other Side.
Drawing on a wealth of personal experience as well as many ancient and indigenous traditions, Moss offers stories to inspire us and guide us. He shares his extraordinary visionary relationship with the poet W. B. Yeats, whose greatest ambition was to create a Western Book of the Dead, to feed the soul hunger of our times. Moss teaches us the truth of Chief Seattle’s statement that "there is no death; we just change worlds."

You Have the Power to Help Your Loved Ones Cross Over Peacefully.......2007-08-28
Robert Moss gives important advice on how to help those we love die with peace and hope. By sharing dreams together, and by giving dreams of beauty and hope to those who need them, we can be active participants and helpers during this sacred time that we all will eventually face. This book has changed my way of looking at life and death.
"He who will be chief, be a bridge".......2006-06-14
Like all books by Moss, I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Although he comes back more deeply in subjects he may have covered a bit in his former books, Moss does not repeat tirelessly. Instead, he manages to bring new stories and bright insights along with a quick review of particular points whenever it is needed.
In the first part, Robert Moss goes over the realm of death and its inhabitants, what they do, what they want, how to contact them through dreams. In the second part of the book he moves on to recount his adventures in the astral with the poet Yeats. He explains that his inspiration in writing this book came through his imaginary relationship with the poet. This book of the dead is meant as a sort of continuation of Yeats's own book of the dead, left unfinished by his death.
Despite the subject, the author is as playful as ever. Here's how he tells of the birthing process: "The Moon priest helps me into my body suit. Part of me recoils from this limiting, this confinement to such a primitive form, with only one organ of generation. Yet this body suit is flexible and moves with my thoughts.(...)It pulls back into its default mode - that of a biped that cannot eat and talk safely at the same time (...)".
He offers one of the few accounts of what happens before birth and the possibility of parallel lives across the space-time continuum. Karma is now! I would certainly have liked more discussion on that particular subject. Instead, Robert Moss stops there, leaving us wanting more explanation and a more adequate conclusion. The rest is as fun-filled and rich as his other books.
If you want a more experiential and intelligent approach to dreamwork (as opposed to just dream interpretation), Robert Moss' books are the way to go.
An escort service for dreams and healing.......2006-03-18

Death does not have to be a fearsome thing.......2005-12-08
A favorite dream of mine is one I had after my mother's death. She has been gone for almost ten years, but has taught me much about life after death through dreams.
I dreamed that my sisters and I were helping at a community church event. Mom was there. We knew she was dead. This was a very special visit. Someone asked me to run an errand, but I refused. I did not know how long Mom would be with us. Sure enough, in the time that I would have been away, Mom told us she had to go. She showed us some sort of gadget that reminded me of an electronic university calendar. It listed many "courses" that one could take. Each course had a button next to it to facilitate movement and choice. Each button had a protective cover to prevent accidental activation of a new course. Mom explained that she was ready to move on. We went outside with her and watched as she pushed the button for her next course. She floated up off the ground and then slowly drifted away across the fields until she disappeared.
Robert's book is in three parts. The first is about this sort of dream, visits with the dead. The second details his own experiences with the poet Yeats, who wanted to write a Western Book of the Dead, and has long served as a guide for Robert. The final section can prepare us for our own deaths, and outlines how to use dreams to assist the dying. Life after death is like a dream, where none of the rules of our earthly life apply.
The Dreamer's Book of the Dead is massively researched, full of stories from myth, dreams, and near death experiences. I expect that some Christian people would be offended or frightened by the idea of an afterlife which we can visit or even create in dreaming, and warn against any attempt to connect with those who have passed over. Robert Moss does address the dangers of connections with the heavy energies of addicted personalities, for example. But even Christian people can fear death, and can find comfort in the words of this book. In fact, pages 235 and 236 hold the most beautiful example of a healing encounter with Jesus, from one woman's conscious dream experience.
Death does not need to be a fearsome thing. Our loved ones may not be with us in a physical body, but are not so far away at all. This book will be a comfort to many.
Wonderful insights.......2005-11-28
I initially read through this book very quickly, and am now re-reading it with much more care and attention. This book is dense with wonderful insights and instruction on the nature of consciousness in ordinary time, dreamtime, and beyond. The text is informative, and the notes and bibliography are detailed and complete...Mr. Moss has obviously done his homework. The subject matter is, needless to say, compelling. There's a lot here to study and work on as well as many leads to related resources. I was happy to learn so much more about the Order of the Golden Dawn, "A Vision" by WB Yeats, and Dante's "Divine Comedy", among other things. This book is now one of my favorites which is saying something because I have lots of 'em.
Book Description
In
Who Is the Dreamer Who Dreams the Dream? A Study of Psychic Presences, James Grotstein integrates some of his most important work of recent years in addressing fundamental questions of human psychology and spirituality. He explores two quintessential and interrelated psychoanalytic problems: the nature of the unconscious mind and the meaning and inner structure of human subjectivity. To this end, he teases apart the complex, tangled threads that constitute self-experience, delineating psychic presences and mystifying dualities, subjects with varying perspectives and functions, and objects with different, often phantasmagoric properties.
Book Description
The first in a series of hardcover chapter books. Book 1 tells the story of the movie from Shark Boy's and Lava Girl's points of view.
Customer Reviews:
I loved ths book.......2006-08-04
This book has excellent writing, almost as good as Harry Potter books. It used all the pages carefully - meaning it took the time to explain details. I liked the characters and it is a good fantasy book.

This book is good with action and thrilling details. If you liked the movie you'll like this book. I couldn't put it down. I recommend it to both boys and girls ages 10-13.
