What if your dreams were already giving you coordinates — and all you lacked was the key to read them?
In Book 1 of Phillip Aisling, Phillip stumbles upon the mysterious Dreamer’s Dictionary: midnight blue, silver moon embossed, its pages spinning like atlas rings filled with symbols. To most, it looks like nonsense. To a true Dreamer, it reveals hidden maps across dimensions.
The riddle inside says it best:
“Through the Gates of Dreaming come powers untold.
There are distant worlds for true Dreamers to behold.
You may not understand just what your dreams mean
Once you have broken through the barrier in between.
Each moment you sleep brings signs without number.
May this book bring meaning to visions of your slumber.”
But here’s the twist: did the Dictionary “choose” Phillip, waiting for him behind a fake shelf in his local library? Or did Phillip choose it — by refusing to accept shallow answers and pressing further when others would’ve quit?
That’s the paradox of the Aislingverse: what looks like fate is often the fruit of free will.
🎧 In this episode, we explore the Dreamer’s Dictionary as both a fantastical artifact and a metaphor for your own dream journal — a living atlas you’ve been building all along.
