Real psychology applied to Dream Work, and more!

This is the book I've been looking for all my life! I've always loved the idea of deciphering my dreams, but dream dictionaries and other dream manuals always fell short of the mark. Well, no longer! It takes some work, but if you're willing to put in the work, you'll suddenly realise that your dreams are a lot more relevant that you might give them credit for, and it's not the woo woo thing that everyone seems to agree on. Dreams offer us pure unconscious material filled with symbology, which this book helps us to not only decipher, but to integrate said material and resolve ongoing issues that may have plagued us for years. It feels like a light has been switched on, as I now have direct access to my own inner wisdom, in a way that is far more objective than I ever thought possible.

useful tool, and good for some real direct work ...

I've been writing my dreams for a long time and crudely tried to interpret them with simple associations alone with little success. Since getting this book I've interpreted 2 correctly and it's hard to describe the strange positive feeling that you get inside when it just clicks, you know? The closest word I've come to describing it with is "resolution".Active imagination is also a very multifaceted, useful tool, and good for some real direct work on the self. I struggle a bit with it since I'm a control freak but I think in the long run it will also provide me with some excellent "resolution", and integration.I'm a therapist and if I can find a way to introduce dreamwork with my clients without seeming quacky I think this will yield some great results. However, the book is by and large in laymans terms and so this can be used as a self-help book as opposed to a psychological textbook.

Great for Inner work, dream analysis and first step into understanding active imagination. Recommend!

this is a great book for those looking to learn more about Active imagination and understanding the dream symbolism process.. I have already benefitted from this book, actually bought 2 and working with the ideas from this book with my friend. Dream analysis is vital to our growth and inner world allowing us to understand about the archetypes that exist in us and that visit us in our dreams. To now recognise them and communicate with them via active imagination will open up personal and creative dialogue when before was blocked. This will allow us to integrate and just have a better understanding of our unconscious thus creating a conversation within ourselves.

Very Insightful

Teaches a digestible analysis of Jung’s Archetypes as well as approaches to dreams in order for self improvement. Pair it with the Authors other book about the Shadow, and you’ll have a good time.

Best author in this space

This guy knows his stuff, and is backed up by thousands of years of human experience, alongside Carl Jungs more extensive modern extensive research into dream archetypes etc. What Mr. Johnson does well is : be personable, phrase it for the modern mind , remove any new age flakyness, and more importantly, make it accessible. It's not the key to all things ever (there isnt one) and is not supposed to be in competition with science or medicine, it is just obvious that people should work with their base brain, as that is clearly the root and primary source of one's inner workings and this allows people to think for themselves, about themselves.. .Whether its scientifically provable is an irrelevant question - the concepts explained just work.

A doorway to our secret and forgotten resource

If you are a seeker after the meaning of existence, or your true nature, this is probably one of the most valuable aids you will come across to help you in your quest. Admittedly it rested on my bookshelf a long time and there were a number of false starts that led to nothing, but this is a book whose time will come for you. Buy it and don't worry if it doesn't immediately speak to you. It is one of the wisest guides to the inner world we all possess and inhabit, our dreams.

Invaluable

First session of dream analysis and ritual showed very quick results of inner healing and integration with unconscious energies ( my second dream the following morning displayed a situation of resolution and peace). Massive insights into self and the collective unconscious. Easy to understand and a commitment to inner work has been realised due to reading this book. Highly recommended.

A Beginner's Guide

Extremely simple breakdown of the concepts and method of Active Imagination and Dream Analysis.Highly recommended both for beginners and for hammering home in a simple manner the ideas and details that you'll find and may have missed in Jung's own works.
