Have you ever wondered why you dream what you dream? Do you want to deepen your relationship with your dreams and receive guidance from them? DREAMING AT THE GATES presents dozens of powerful stories demonstrating how dreams guide us from childhood through death. See how dreams can prepare us for marriage, help resolve personal or professional problems, and help us deal with the death of a loved one. The opening chapters delve into the dreams and theories of Swiss psychiatrist, Carl Jung, and American medium, Jane Roberts. Later chapters present intriguing examples of childhood dreams, big dreams, series and recurring dreams, and visitation dreams. Each chapter offers an "Explorations" section to help you find more meaning in your own dreams. DREAMING AT THE GATES is both practical and inspirational, and can help you use the perspectives of your dreaming self to navigate important life passages and reach your full potential.
