Two traditions of dream reading
Dream Journal
Write what you remember of a dream below. We will pull out the symbols we recognize, read each one in the tradition you choose, and surface any pairings the tradition has notes on. For a full written interpretation by Dylan, see the instant interpretation.
The 2nd-century Greek master of dream interpretation. Artemidorus collected thousands of dreams and tracked which ones came true under which circumstances. His rule: a symbol's meaning depends on who is dreaming it, what they hope for, and what is happening in their waking life.
Or tap symbols — pick as many as you like
Each symbol — Artemidorus
dog
creatures, instincts
If favorable: A friendly dog signifies a faithful friend or servant; a hunting dog at your heel means assistance in a venture.
If shadowed: A dog that bites or chases foretells betrayal by a person you have trusted — often someone you have fed.
house
where the dream is set
If favorable: Your own house in good order is the augury of inner balance.
If shadowed: A ruined or unfamiliar house warns of trouble at the foundation of your affairs.

For an interpretation that ties these symbols together into a single woven reading, written for you — drawing from both Artemidorus and the Jungian frame — let the dream be read whole.
