Dreams are doorways to the inner mind.
From Babylonian Gilgamesh to the Chuang-tzu of China to Sigmund Freud's Interpretation of Dreams, why people dream and how we understand them continue to measure the insight we give to our days.
Humankind has always valued dreams. Shamans, prophets, and sages receive insight through dreams. The ancient Greeks constructed temples where the sick were sent to be cured. They believed that cures came through divine grace as a result of incubating dreams within the confines of the temple.
The second book printed on the Guttenberg press was Oneirocritica, Greek for "the interpretation of dreams". This marked the end of the Middle Ages and the beginning of the Age of Exploration – quite fitting for our ability to explore the vast inner worlds of subconscious mind.
Tibetan Yoga has taught this fine art as a science of mind for over 3000 years. The School of Metaphysics in the Midwestern US has openly taught dream interpretation through the application of the Universal Language of Mind since the late 1960s.
The purpose of this site is to provide an educational forum for dreamers of every culture and nation. If you are a dreamer, self-reflective and self-aware, we invite your participation. You are welcome to submit your dream in the category it belongs as well as to read and study the dreams of others. We invite you to also record your thoughts and observations about your dream, how and why it is memorable to you or what it meant in your life.
Over time, we expect to collect the largest dream database on the planet.
Decades ago Swiss-born Carl Jung noted. “Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens.” Thus AVATAR DREAMS beckon us to look within so we can begin our journey of ascension. Come, let us climb together.
