Journal of Dreams

In what may be one of the oldest and longest series of dreams and their analysis, Swedish scientist-turned-seer Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772) describes his dream life in detail during a crucial period in his transformation into a mystic. Journal of Dreams, with its accompanying interpretation by psychologist Wilson Van Dusen, provides an intimate view of spiritual discovery.
