Description

This modest volume opens a window onto the old‑world belief that nightly visions and even small bodily marks can foretell matters of the heart and of commerce. Written in a clear, almost conversational style, it gathers the wisdom of generations of sages who claimed that dreams speak directly to the soul when the body rests. Listeners will hear the author lay out a series of symbolic meanings, from soaring flights to the appearance of a gold ring, each tied to love, marriage or business prospects.

The catalogue reads like a folk encyclopedia: dreaming of swimming in turbulent water suggests overcoming a difficulty, while a fierce beast in pursuit warns of hostile rivals. Other sections explain how the shape of a mole, the lines on a hand, or even the colour of gloves can signal constancy, loss, or future happiness. Throughout, the tone remains practical and earnest, inviting the audience to compare their own nightly images with these time‑tested interpretations.
