The books Dreamlore quotes
Every reading in Dreamlore is grounded in three public-domain books. The app quotes them word for word and checks every quote against the source text before showing it.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901. An A–Z dream dictionary by the American businessman Gustavus Hindman Miller, first published in 1901.
Sigmund Freud, translated by A. A. Brill, 1913. Freud's book on dreams, first published in German as Die Traumdeutung in 1899 (dated 1900).
Sigmund Freud, 1920. A short introduction to Freud's theory of dreams, published in English in 1920 with an introduction by André Tridon.
Why these three?
Miller's dictionary is the classic A–Z of dream symbols, one entry for almost any image a dream can contain. Freud's two books are the most influential writing on dreams there is. All three are in the public domain in the United States, which means Dreamlore can quote them at length, and you can read every word of them free.

The books quoted here are old — Miller wrote in 1901 and his entries read as omens, and many of Freud's ideas are disputed today. Take them as a starting point for thinking about your own dream, not as prediction or advice.
