Finally, a witchy woman point of view

I first became acquainted with Karri through her paintings. I actually did not know she was a witch....nor did she know I was a witch. I love her cookbook too.But the very best, simply the best was finding this book [okay, it isn't quite as lovely as staring at the painting]. Finally, a perspective on dreams that is witchy and female.Now what is different from the other dream books? Well, for one I have found the male oriented ones to be highly directive. They tell you what the symbol in YOUR dream means, they don't ask you what it means to YOU. This book however, to me, is a female way of going about figuring out your dreams. Here is the symbol. Here is what it could mean. Here are some questions you can ask yourself to find out what it means to YOU.That's whats different. That and it is pure witch. The lady knows her craft, and she knows how to very clearly, very simply help you figure out your dreams. A must have for any witchy woman.

Book Review by Echoed Voices Magazine

Artist and Author Karri Ann Allrich has enriched us all with,"A Witches Book of Dreams."For anyone, who has ever feared or questioned a dream, this is the book for you. I have never seen a book with such an extensive "Dream Dictionary" in it as this one.Karri enlightens the reader with easy to read samples and explanations. She doesn't dictate with her book but instead encourages the reader to open up their mind, awaken their spirit and think for themselves, to decipher their own dreams in their own way.Once this is accomplished, the answers are all there. She brings the wisdom of Jung, and the spiritual of Goddess. With this combination you couldn't go wrong.Karri Allrich has filled the void in the pagan market with subject matter and viewpoint. For all who dream, "A Witches Book of Dreams" is a must have!

Fly me to the moon

Fly me to the moon, for this enlightening book on dreams is not for witches, only. I was drawn to the inviting cover of the maiden on the moon, but it was the contents that turned my nocturnal flights of dreamtime into a reality of power and understanding of me. Just a truth seeker am I, always working to improve my daily life and living to the fullest. Karri Allrich's "A Witch's Book of Dreams" has given me insight into all the lessons I can learn from examining and interpreting my dreams. As suggested, I started my dream journal immediately, and rereading its contents with the help of Allrich's dream dictionary, and her explanations of archtypes, symbols, and shadow work, has given me a new perspective of my life, past and present...and future. Buy this book. It will enable you to become that whole person you've always dreamed of!

A highly readable guide to understanding your dreams

With a natural gift for interpreting dreams, and a background of study in Jungian psychology, author Karri Allrich has crafted a highly readable guide to understanding the meaning and underlying truths of dream language. She covers the concepts of the collective unconscious, archetypes, meeting the Shadow, animal dreams and finding your inner soul twin; what Carl Jung named the Anima/Animus. This is magick meeting myth, intuition embracing psychology. A unique blend of Jungian concepts and Witchiness. Resources include her own extensive Witch's Dream Dictionary, (with very intuitive and insightful meanings) and the Witch's Tools of Association, Active Imagination and Automatic Writing. There are also helpful charts on Chakras, and Correspondences and how to follow these threads in your dream symbols. Tips on starting a dream journal and keeping track of symbols, themes and patterns are offered, as well as advice on crafting rituals from dreams, and starting up a Dream Circle (a group of dreamers meeting to discuss and learn about dreams and symbols). She also gives samples of actual dreams and their interpretations...which is really fascinating. For all the information included, it's not an intimidating book. Karri makes the concepts easy to understand and throws in a dash of humor now and then. A book to keep by your bedside, next to your dream journal...Highly recommended.

Finally, a dream book that gets real

Often when I have picked up a book about dream interpretation, I become quickly disappointed. Not with this one! The author effectively describes how to analyze dreams - by explaining complicated Jungian theory in everyday words. The book contains actual dream examples - that the author breaks down herself; I found this to be a fantastic way to follow her teachings. The dictionary is suberb, finally one that is of real practical use. If you are fascinated by your dreams, get this book! It will help you to truly understand dream interpretation.
