The best short, nontechnical account of Jungian ideas about dream symbols as harbingers of psychological and spiritual transformation. Jung saw dreams as snapshots of the psyches, and he and his followers have combined knowledge from the world’s collection of mystical symbology (such as alchemical texts) with the experiences of thousands of analysands, and have shown how those people who don’t have gurus or who aren’t initiates of one spiritual tradition or another can use their dreams as a guide to inner growth.
