A revised and enlarged edition of the Law of Contagion Series 2.

Many such practices involved plants, and were operant at the folk level, seeking to incept dreams of a prophetic nature, to obtain knowledge of future loves, fortunes, births and deaths. Corinne Boyer draws together many strands of plant dream-lore, focusing on dream-divination, and she examines the many ways of using flowers, fruits, branches and leaves to make contact with the oneiric realm.
