Narodna sanjarica
The most famous Croatian book on dream interpretation. The author, a long-time expert in working with dreams, combines a rich folk treasure (lore, beliefs, and old dream books) with modern depth psychology. Special feature: "A Brief Nostradamus Horoscope"
The book begins with a preface with a brief overview: from the ancient Croatian belief that the soul travels at night, through sacred dreams and prophecies, to Freud and Jung. Dreams, according to Cikuša, are both a mirror of the subconscious and the voice of the ancestors – they warn us, comfort us and guide us.
The central part is a comprehensive alphabetical dictionary of over 1500 symbols (from “avion” to “žutica”) with multiple interpretations: folk, psychological, spiritual. Example: a snake can be an enemy, wisdom, healing or sexuality – depending on the feeling in the dream. Special chapters provide advice for nightmares, lucid dreams and how to keep a dream diary.
Written in warm, understandable language, without professional jargon, the book is a true “folk manual” that helps everyone to understand their own dreams and themselves. It has remained unsurpassed in the Croatian-speaking area and is a sought-after classic today.
