The Mystical, Magical Marvelous World of Dreams is perhaps The Very Best of all books written on dreams. The book is set up very much like a dictionary making it easy to find a symbol and its interpretation. I have taught Dream Symbology and Interpretation for over 20 years and find that the interpretations are clear, concise and, in my estimation, very accurate. The Major Purposes for Interpreting and Understanding Our Dreams are to aid us in Problem Solving, Getting Ideas, Solutions and Insights, Discovering the Lessons We Need To Learn, Guidance, Knowledge and Encouragement when We Get Off Course. This Book has been and is the Major Influence in My Work and Teaching. It will greatly assist the reader who is interested in understanding their dreams and not disappoint them in any way.

There are several types of Dreams that we have, they are:
The Prophetic Dream is one that Happens in an awakened state, exactltly as it occured in the dream state. It generally fortells of a Future Event or Happening.
Symbolic Dreams occur most often and can give needed advice. For instance, if we dream of a Traffic Light, it could be giving us a direction to take, Green, Go ahead, Yellow, Proceed with caution, Red, stop where you are going.
Spiritual Dreams reveal what the Soul is seeking from us.
Superficial Dreams are scattered and make no sense.
Astral Projection: A projection out of the body to another place
Distortion Deams relate to dreams that are not part of a time sequence, and may be related to a Feeling Sequence that is distorted or disguised by the sub-conscious to conceal something.
Condensation Dreams are dreams that have fewer symbols. They are comprssed with several events, people or wishes all condensed into one.
Symbolization Dreams are where one thing stands for another. Symbolizing one thing for something else. Very Often having a meaning for a certain person, place or thing that is personal to the individual. For someone else, the symbol can have a completely different meaning to someone else. These are Individual Personalized Symbols.

An easy to read and understandable way of interpreting your dreams. I would recommend keeping a pen and paper next to the bed so as soon as you wake up (before the dream is gone) you can write down the most significant parts of your dream like colors, numbers, what really stood out, or was significant and then look up the meanings using the index.

You may have to try different words then you originally wrote down to find the meaning that applies to your dream. Generally speaking there is usually a word or phrase in the index close to what you are looking for to help in the interpretation.

I found it amazing how my dreams are a reflection of what is going on in my everyday life and subconscious. It was also very interesting to find out how completely different dreams can have basically the same meanings. A highlight to what is going on or what might be bothering you, or at the very least a highlight into what your subconscious is telling you through your dreams.

I originally bought my book around 1995 and it's held together by scotch tape, but this recent purchase was for my granddaughter. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the meanings of dreams.

I do love the detail about dreams and how your body and mind go somewhere else while asleep.. but I wish I would’ve known that one of the explanations for some of these occurrences was “God”. I’m not at all religious and that just made me think the author is crazy. No offense, but to believe in something that can’t be proven or seen isn’t my thing. I’m about science and facts. Hence why I bought the book, for a realist explaination for my dreams and the science behind it. Should’ve looked up more about it lol but it was also written in like 1983? Or in the 70s.. I don’t recall but yeah lol. Outdated info

I have read many books on the subject of dreams and this is by far the best. The first 11 chapters are an excellent summary of the dream world and the rest of the book is dedicated to looking at symbols. Wilda`s interpretation of symbols is profound. She does not say that a symbol has one meaning. She says it may mean a variety of things so this enables you to come to your own conclusion on the meaning of your dream. I have been using this book for 22 years and Wilda`s knowledge and pure genius related to the dream world never ceases to amaze me. In a telephone conversation I had with her many years ago I asked her how she knew so much about dreams. She said she came into the world knowing this information. This answer is the only thing that made sense to me. I don`t think you could learn what is in this book in one lifetime.
I give presentations and workshops on the meaning of dreams and have shared this book with many people. The feedback related to the book and it`s usefulness has been very positive. I don`t think I would be doing this work without her guidance.

Excellent book, better than I expected, not only are symbols explained, but the whole world or process of dreaming is discussed and
she is spot on with how it relates to human nature, how we think, feel and behave. She explains how to increase your abilities, to bring
about dreams to answer specific questions or events in your life. Everything you need to know is provided. Buy it as you should not be
disappointed.

Great dream book! Read the intro first, then look at the meanings. This is an all-time favorite of mine & I've purchased as gifts, too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really impressed
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 2, 2015
I really like this book and use it all the time.

Through my own research, I was finding that not all dream dictionaries were equal! As an example, in one book I looked at, I read that dreaming of taking a shower meant that you were going to come into money. Lovely thought, but it did not resonate with me as any kind of personal truth as to the meaning of the symbol. This book resonated in that the dreaming of taking a shower symbolised an inner 'cleansing' of some kind. This resonated as much more realistic, as well as, frankly, logical. When I think of taking a shower, I don't think of making money, I think of being clean. See what I mean? That's why I like this book. It's spiritual, but logical.

So, yes, this book is spiritual in nature, but in a very down-to-earth (and non-religious/non-denomination) way. The author encourages that, even when using her book, you think first and foremost what the dream symbol means to you.

I have found it very helpful and my only criticism is that I wish it were thicker! (It's already as thick as a telephone directory - you know, the old ones from 20 years ago, ie, 2 inches thick).

As a complete novice in the old 'dream interpretation' school, this book has been an enormous help to me. A complete revelation.

Further examples: Vehicles = your body. Buildings = your subconscious/psyche. The author details further in what vehicles/buildings etc you are actually dreaming about? Then takes it further into what those vehicles/buildings look like; or what state they are in; or how big/small they are; what colours appear; who is with you in the building or the vehicle? What are they doing? Do you like who you are with/what you are doing? Or not? These are just tiny examples. Once you look up all the symbols in your dreams - people, colours, vehicles, scenery, feelings, weather, even your own clothing and the state of your hair!, etc etc etc, it then becomes obvious (to me anyway, and remember I said that I am a complete novice!) what the dream is about. Remember to add your own intuition when interpreting your dreams and suddenly you have your own personal mirror held up to your face. Pretty amazing stuff, and I never would have believed it.

I could not have started without a good dictionary and this is one. I cannot put it down, and have had a lot of successful interpretations with it and therefore have no hesitation in recommending it.

Happy, insightful dreaming, one and all.

In a sea of dream books, this is the only one I truly trust.
Nobody is trying to predict the future here, nobody knows what is coming regards to money/ relationships/ work etc. And if they are trying I would be wildly skeptical.
All Miss Tanner does is decipher what your subconscious is bringing up and she does it damm well.
