What will I learn?

Dream interpretation

What do your dreams reveal about your subconscious mind?

Are they simply concoctions of the imagination, or do the contents of your dreams relate, directly or metaphorically, to aspects of your real-life?

What is your subconscious mind expressing about internal repressed feelings towards others in your life?

The How to Interpret Your Dreams guide offers insightful psychoanalysis of the dreams regularly experienced by millions of us. Often, we do not realise that these dreams are more meaningful than most people would be aware of.

Austrian psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud practised psychoanalysis and published many case histories such as that of Daniel Schreber.

Given the relevance many people can see in dreams, Freud believed that the content of our dreams are an expression of the subconscious.

Using regression and hypnosis, he set out to uncover the underlying subconscious thoughts of patients in order to identify the underlying causes of their complaints.


Dreams...are not meaningless...they are a completely valid psychological phenomenon, the fulfilment of wishes... constructed through highly complicated intellectual activity.
- Sigmund Freud (Psychoanalyst)
