aura　of　the　microcosm　previous　to　taking　on　corporal　form。

While　in　this　state　they　may　be　perceived　by　subjectivity；

and　thus　the　images　seen　are　impressed　on　the　dream　mind

during　sleep；　or　on　the　passivity　of　the　objective　sense。



Evil　or　righteous　acts　recently　committed　will　more　acutely　affect

the　present　waking　mind　than　those　enacted　at　a　more　remote　period。

In　a　similar　way　future　disaster　or　success　which　is　soon　to　occur

will　impress　the　dream　mind　more　vividly　than　those　which　are

to　transpire　at　a　later　date。　　But　in　the　lives　of　all　men　there

are　past　incidents　which　they　will　never　forget；　and　which

will　never　cease　to　fill　their　hearts　with　pride　or　remorse。

So；　too；　in　their　distant　future　there　are　important　events

to　transpire　which　are　struggling　through　tumultuous　infinitude

to　leave　their　ghastly　or　smiling　impress　upon　the　dream　mind。

If　your　mental　states　are　passive　you　will　receive　the　warnings。

There　are　cases　on　record　which　show　events　have　been　forecast

years　ahead　of　their　occurrence。



We　do　not　claim　that　this　book　will　prove　an　interpreter　of　all　dreams；

or　that　the　keys　disclosed　will　open　to　you　all　the　mysteries　of　the　future；

or　even　all　those　surrounding　your　own　personality；　but　by　studying

the　definitions　and　the　plane　upon　which　they　were　written；　you　will　be　able；

through　the　power　of　your　own　spirit；　to　interpret　your　own　dreams。

The　combination　of　dream　and　dream　influences　are　as　infinite　as　the　stars；

or　the　combination　of　thought　and　number。　　They　can　only　be　classed

and　considered　as　such。　　They　cannot　be　analyzed　in　detail　or　as　a　whole。

In　mathematics　we　have　nine　digits　from　which　an　infinite　variety

of　combinations　may　be　formed　and　solved　by　the　deduction　of　the　mind。

Through　them　we　may　measure　time；　space；　quality　and　quantity。



The　symbol　o　and　I　exist　by　reason　of　_no　thing_　and　_some

thing_　or　death　and　life。　　The　figure　one　is　subject　to

illimitable　expansion。　　It　is　without　beginning　in　the　infinite

of　number；　as　God　is　without　beginning　in　the　infinite　of　being。

As　with　the　vegetable　kingdom；　the　tiny　seed　or　acorn　silently

working　its　magical　transformation　into　a　plant　or　tree；

and　directing　its　destiny　with　marvelous　intelligence

through　the　torrid　and　frigid　vicissitudes　of　the　seasons；

so　is　man　without　beginning　in　the　infinitude　of　his　own

being　or　microcosm。　　Man　is　both　a　type　and　antitype。

A　type　of　what　pre…existed　in　the　imagination　of　the　world；　and　an

antitype　of　a　future　life　yet　to　manifest　itself　on　another　plane

where　the　incidents　of　the　one　will　be　subjective；　as　the　events

occurring　in　infancy　or　in　other　planes　are　now　subjective。

His　dreams；　thoughts　and　actions；　and　the　influences　that

produce　them　and　their　multiplying　combination；　cannot　be

numbered　or　reproduced　any　more　than　you　can　number　the　leaves

of　the　forest；　or　find　two　exactly　similar　units　among　them。

Thus　the　full　meaning　or　interpretation　of　dreams　cannot　be　fully

demonstrated　through　mental　or　even　spiritual　stereotypes。

But　by　the　intelligent　use　of　this　book　you　will　be　able　to　trace

out　almost　any　dream　combination　and　arrive　at　the　true　nature

of　its　portent。



A　wise　doctor；　in　preparing　medicine　for　a　patient；

considers　well　his　age；　temperament　and　his　present　condition。

So　should　the　interpreter　of　dreams　ponder　well　the　mental　state；

the　health；　habits　and　temperament　of　the　dreamer。

These　things　no　one　can　know　so　well　as　the　dreamer　himself。

He；　therefore；　with　the　aid　of　this　book；　will　be　able　to　interpret

his　dreams　by　the　light　that　is　in　him。



Man　is　the　microcosm　or　a　miniature　world。　　He　has　a　soul　and

mental　firmament；　bounded　by　the　stellar　dust　and　the　milky　way；

and　filled　with　the　mystery　of　suns；　satellites　and　stars。

These　he　can　study　best　by　the　astronomy　of　induction　and　introspection。

He　has　also　a　physical　plane；　diversified　by　oceans；

lakes；　rivers；　fertile　valleys；　waste　places　and　mountains。

All　are　in　cosmic　interdependency　as　they　are　in　the　macrocosm。

Here　rests　the　mystery　of　beingthe　grandest　of　subjects！

The　student　is　no　less　bewildered　and　awed　than　the　geologist

who　gropes　blindly　through　the　seams　of　the　earth　searching

for　links　in　the　infinite　chain　of　knowledge；　or　the　astronomer

sweeping　the　heavens　of　the　macrocosm　in　quest　of　new　phenomena。

The　two　planes　are　dependent　upon　each　other。　　It　is　the　smile

or　disease　of　the　firmament　that　blesses　or　diseases　the　earth。

It　is　likewise　the　impure　firmament　of　the　microcosm　that　diseases

the　body　and　soul。　　If　it　reflects　the　drought　of　thought　or　the

various　states　of　evil；　deserts　will　enlarge；　forest　of　infectious；

venomous　growth　will　form　the　habitation　of　lust　and　murder。

Before　great　moral　or　physical　revolutions　or　catastrophes　occur；

clouds　will　darken　the　horizon　of　the　dream　mind；　storms　will　gather；

lurid　flames　of　lightning　will　flash　their　volatile　anger；

the　explosive　thunder　will　recklessly　carry　on　its　bombardment；

bells　will　ring；　strange　knocking　will　be　heardsymbols　of　a　message

phantom　forms　will　be　seen；　familiar　voices　will　call　and　plead

with　you；　unknown　visitors　will　threaten　you；　unearthly　struggles

with　hideous　giants　and　agonies　of　mind　and　body　will　possess　you；

malformations　of　the　most　hideous　type　will　seize　your　vision；

shrouded　in　sheets　of　a　whitish　vapor；　evanescent　specters；

with　pallid　face　and　of　warning　countenance；　will　cling　around　you；

and　contagion　and　famine　will　leave　their　desolate　impress　upon

the　flower　of　health　and　in　the　field　of　plenty。　　Thus　all　of　us

would　be　nightly　warned　in　our　circle　or　miniature　world　if　we

would　develop　subjective　strength　to　retain　the　impressions　left

upon　our　dream　mind。　　But　in　spite　of　all　reason　and　conscience

in　spite　of　the　inductive　knowledge　received　through　our　senses

we　go　on　from　day　to　day；　and　step　by　step；　feeding　our　soul

on　the　luscious　fruit　of　the　outward　senses；　until　the　rank

weeds　of　sefishness｛sic｝　have　choked　out　all　other　forces。

Thus　the　soul　is　filled　with　thought　images　that　assume　the　form

of　vicious　animals；　homely　visaged　fowls；　rabid　and　snarling

cats　and　dogs；　leprous　and　virile　serpents；　cankerous　lizards；

slimy　intestine　worms；　hairy　and　malicious　insects。

They　are　generated　by　greed；　envy；　jealousy；　covetousness；　backbiting；

amorous　longings　and　other　impure　thoughts。　　With　the　soul　filled

with　this　conglomeration　of　virus　and　filth；　why　doubt　a　hell　and　its

counterpart　condition；　or　expect　the　day　or　night　to　bring　happiness？

If　evil　thoughts　will　infest　the　soul　with　ravenous　microbes；

good　thoughts　and　deeds　will　starve　and　suppress　their　activity；

and　create　a　heaven　to　supplant　them。　　With　this　grand　and　eternal

truth　in　view；　man　should　ever　think　kindly　of　those　about　him；

control　his　temper　in　word　and　action；　seek　his　own；　think　the　best

of　thoughts；　study　to　relieve　the　worthy　poor；　seek　solace　in　the　depth

of　being；　and　let　gentleness　and　meekness　characterize　his　life。

Then　will　he　sow　the　seeds　of　a　present　and　future　heaven。

His　day　thoughts　and　his　night　thoughts　in　harmony　will　point

with　unerring　forecast　to　a　peaceful　end。　　Spiritual　and　helpful

warnings　will　fall　upon　the　dream　mind；　as　gently　as　dew　upon

the　flowers　and　as　softly　as　a　mother's　kiss　upon　the　lips　of　love。

When　our　external　lives　are　guided　by　the　forces　within；

sweet　are　the　words　and　messages　from　our　own　spirit；

for　those　who　are　truly　blessed　are　those　who　seek　divine　love

through　the　channels　of　their　inner　world　of　consciousness。

AND　THE　RELATIONSHIP　BETWEEN　THE　MICROCOSM　AND　THE　MACROCOSM。



FRAGMENTARY　THOUGHTS　FROM　DREAM　REALMS：｝





Man　is　a　little　circle　or　world　composed　of　the　infinitesimal　atoms　thrown

off　from　the　great　circle　or　parent　world；　and　fitting　into　his　place

in　the　zone　of　life。　　If　in　the　revolutions　of　the　great　circle　he　catches

more　material　he　increases　his　circle　to　objective　or　subjective　growth：

if　he　absorbs　spiritual　or　mind　atoms　as　they　fall　from　the　great　body

of　creative　source；　he　enlarges　or　contracts　his　own　circle　according

to　the　assimilation　of　the　food　he　receives　from　the　parent。



It　is　optional　with　man　to　obtain　spiritual　or　material　manna

as　it　is　disseminated　throughout　existence。　　To　feed　on　material

diet　alone；　contracts　and　distorts　the　circle　of　the　man；

but　a　full　comprehension　of　the　needs　of　the　circle；　a　proper

denial　of　supply　to　some　of　the　compounds；　together　with　a　tender

care　of　other　parts；　will　round　out　the　whole　into　a　perfect

physical　and　mental　circle　of　life。



Dissentious　and　conflicting　results　should　be　avoided　in　computing

the　length　and　breadth　of　the　compounded　circle　of　man's　individual　world。

Objective　life　is　one　of　the　smallest　compounds　in　real　life。



Dream　life　is　fuller　of　meaning　and　teaching　of　the　in
