Hello everyone and welcome to the July - August issue of "Dream On", a monthly newsletter devoted to Celine and dreams. Hope you are having a relaxing summer.

A couple of exciting news. In July our web traffic to www.celinedreams.com soared despite the fact that many of you are on vacations. We are now talking "thousands" of Celine Dion fans who visit our web site regularly. For example, Yahoo! chose Celine Dreams as an Editor's Pick, UK newspaper Mirror gave us a 'Site of the Day' award, USA TODAY gave us a 'Hot Site' nomination, a web site in Belgium presented Celine Dreams as a site of the day on July 15, five other commercial web site made references to us. It means that the audience of dreamers is growing every day.

"Terry Evans, 38 from Chicago, Illinois wrote to us this email "Blow me over with a giant burst of cold Chicago air. I woke up today, turned on my computer and went to my yahoo [e-mail] account. And what did I find - a link to this site about Celine dreams. To say the least, I was stunned. I have been having Celine dreams ever since her haunting dulcet tones in the movie Titanic."

Thank you, Terry! I think you just gave a nice explanation of why every week we receive a lot of new Celine fan dreams from fans. Thank you for sharing your dreams. We will do our best to post and interpret as many of them as possible. In the meantime, please Dream On and listen to Celine! :)

Is there a "dream dictionary" that we can recommend for understanding dream symbols?

Dream symbols and dream dictionaries

The short answer is "no". Why? Because dream symbols (animals, unknown people, etc.) for the most part, are a very personal thing. It means that a general "dream dictionary" may not necessarily have the correct definition to the symbol in your particular dream.

For example, animals quite often symbolize our own traits, good and bad. When you see an animal doing something in your dreams it usually represents your own personal trait. A dream dictionary can give you an idea of where to look for answers, but won't be able to interpret your dream completely.

Dream interpretation is a part of psychoanalysis, therefore, the best person to interpret your dream completely would be your psychoanalyst, if you have one. If you want to learn more about the interpretation of dreams, I'd recommend a book by Sigmund Freud, a father of modern psychoanalysis, called "On Dreams".

Among hundreds of e-mails every week, there was this simple message from Marissa, a member of Celine Dreams Club who lives in India. Marissa's message is intended for Celine's eyes, but I thought that we all including Celine would like to hear this small but very sincere declaration of love"... Here it is.

Marissa, 19, India

"When I am lonely and sad I like to humble the songs you sang. I don't know, when I sing those songs I get so much of inspiration that I can face the whole world. The songs that I like to sing are "That's the Way It Is", "Because You loved me", "The Power of Love", etc.

Your songs are like a boost for me. I have seen your interviews, they are touching. Especially the time when your husband was fighting against cancer, you too helped him out a lot, this is not so easy and all women would have done that. Celine Dion you are a real woman, and a real diva."
