Do you want to understand your dreams? Good! Put down the dream dictionary and pick up this book.Robert Moss gives you the techniques you need to decipher your dream world and benefit from the information you receive. Become a conscious dreamer, it will open doors to new possibilities.

There are countless books on dreaming and I've looked hopefully at many of them. Usually I've been disappointed by the fact that they really have nothing to say and seem to know nothing more than I do about the subject. Mostly, they are rehashes of other people's psychological analysis of what dreams *might* mean. Since we each dream in our own unique symbolic language, such books are not only useless but misleading. This is NOT the case with Moss's books. A useful, accessible, and comprehensive method for learning about dreams and dreaming first hand is laid out step by step, along with ample examples of many different kinds of dreams, dreamers, and dreaming traditions, to help readers avoid the "one right answer" trap and find their own truth as reflected in their own unique dreams. Dream ethics (ethics, that long-neglected topic!) are also explored.When I was browsing this topic and reading the customer reviews on Moss, not a few of them gave me real pause, claiming he was a fraud who was only out to make a buck on his outrageously priced courses. Well, his courses are expensive, but then it's expensive to go to an ivy league college or study with real Druids too, because what they learn requires them to travel far and spend years of their lives in disciplined practice. The expectation that everything should be free because it comes free from the source is an interesting one. Nothing is free. There is always a price to pay, whether you are paying a person or a travel agency or an institution. If you want something real there is always a price.Moss has provided an easy way to determine if what he is "selling" is real. His books. And unlike most books by people who offer coursework, which hold back all the vital information, Moss puts it all out there. What he is offering is real, it works, and it's authentic in its claims to derive from native worldviews and practices. These books are called "New Age" only because mainstream society is afraid to validate anything *new* as authentically "native". But we are all native to this world. The same source informs us all, if we are open to it. These books ARE the real thing. Along with Caitlin Matthews' books on soul flight, they are outstanding resources for the novice and the experienced traveller. If you have a serious interest, I urge you to treat yourself to something real and affordable. This is what most of us have been looking for.Enjoy!

During the past several years, frequent, recurring nightmares have disturbed my sleeping dreams. A co-worker and healer suggested that dreams recur because they are trying to get a message through and that I might enjoy reading CONSCIOUS DREAMING.Enjoy is not the descriptor I would use for how I interacted with this book. Words more like absorb or consume might be better. I was mesmerized.The writer, Australian born American Shaman, Robert Moss is a dreamer, workshop leader, and author. His voice is authentic and speaks from personal experience and vicarious experience sharing his own dream worlds and those of others.He gives practical and impractical, but workable advise about how to be present to the dreamworlds while waking, sleeping, or journeying, giving examples of how one might hear or see the message being sent. Among these possibilities are incubating a dream (asking for an answer to a specific question to come to you in the dream state before going to sleep) and a special way he shares for recording the dream story upon awakening and processing the dream.The writer also gives many examples of dream stories told in dream-groups or workshops and how the dreams came to be understood by the dreamer.His most important point: you are the master interpreter of your own dreams.For me, this book and one particular other, (JOURNEY OF SOULS, Michael Newton) informed my own dreamworld study over a two-and-one-half year period following the deaths of my parents in 2009, especially focused on the nightmares I mentioned.I am profoundly changed for the better, and further am currently working to finish a full-length manuscript of poetry born out of that study, messages from the ether I continue to process and integrate into my world view and understanding.I own this book. I will keep and revisit this book. I highly recommend it to you, the dreamer seeking consciousness and connection with the dreamworlds.

One of the best books on Conscious Dreaming written by one of the foremost teachers in the world. Robert Moss takes you stage by stage through the process of being able to remember and record your dreams in a clear and concise way. Written quite a while ago now but still well worth buying and studying if you are interested in dream work.

I highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to work with their dreams. A well researched book with lots of useful exercises.

Quite good but I lost interest. Probably my fault.

Extremely interesting and helpful .

The knowledge and experiences shared in this book is expansive. Robert's relationship to the dreamworld is beautiful and inspiring.
