DREAMING WORLD'S SYMBOLISM DICTIONARY

Please be aware that some dreams will have considerable different meaning to different dreamers, the first place you should start looking when you want to analyse a dream is within YOU. But if you're stuck, this just might help you out or give you a starting point :-) This list will be updated as more discussions come about.
