Publisher's Synopsis
AROUND 50,000 years ago, the Aboriginal Australians created a belief system based entirely on dreams. Known as 'the Dreaming', they taught their people through legends with art and songs about the workings of nature, humanity's obligations to the organisms and spirits of the land, and their responsibilities towards each other. And since the third millennium BCE, high priests, shamans, and philosophers across all the ancient civilisations agreed on one point despite their wildly diverse cultures and beliefs-that dreams are bridges to the supernatural that leads us to the hidden, intangible part of ourselves, a path that can make us whole when our unconscious (yin) is united with the conscious (yang).
