INTRODUCTION
T he woman in the audience at a workshop I hosted raised her hand and asked me what it means to dream about losing a tooth. I told her to focus on the idea of losing something important, and her facial expression grew more serious. She said, I heard that it means someone close to you is going to die.
That s wrong in most cases, I assured her. I know someone who dreamed about losing a molar soon after having a miscarriage. The symbolism fit the circumstance because a molar is deeply embedded in the mouth, and a fetus is embedded in the womb. Loved ones are deeply embedded in your life, so losing a loved one is comparable symbolically to losing a molar. But out of hundreds of dreams featuring teeth I ve helped interpret, only a few have connected with a loss like that. Losing a tooth is much more likely to mean the loss of something like reputation or status or loss of opportunity or a relationship. Or it can be an expression of anxiety.
I told her about the young man I chatted with at reddit.com , one of the world s largest social media sites, where I m known as RadOwl the dream expert . He dreamed about dining with his father and his teeth falling out when he opened his mouth to speak. He d just come out as transgender to his father and conversations between them had become awkward to say the least. The meaning is clearly shown in the action of losing teeth while talking with his father. Plus, as soon as I suggested to the young man that the dream could reflect difficulty talking with his father, the idea rang a bell with him.
The woman at my workshop was relieved to understand her dream that way-she probably wasn t about to lose a loved one-and her question provided a great opportunity to make a point that s repeated throughout this book.
A symbol is understood in the context of the dream-story, the actions involving it, and how it fits together with other details. Symbols by themselves can mean all sorts of things. Never jump to conclusions. Even dreams about murder or winning the lottery are usually symbolic, and the imagery shouldn t be taken literally. It s figurative.
In a roundabout way, now you know why I wrote this book. Too much bad information about dreams masquerades as expert opinion. A book needed to be written by someone who knows better, so that fewer people are worried or fooled by something they read from questionable sources. However, I prefer to look on the bright side and say this book is for everyone looking for high-quality sources, like me during my early days of dreamwork.
Back then (in the mid-1990s), all I had to refer to were books written by psychiatrists such as Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud. I d wake up with a head full of dream memories and hunt around for anything to help me understand th
