Your morning
dream ritual

Make yourself a coffee and let the morning light settle in. Every dream is a letter you write to yourself. We are here to help you read it.

The name comes from the Latin somniare – to dream, to see in sleep – and diary, a place where fleeting things are given form.

What makes us different

Not a dream dictionary

No character limit

Long dreams deserve long readings. Write everything you remember – Somniary reads the full narrative without truncating your experience.

Narrative AI, not dictionary

Every symbol is interpreted in the context of your specific dream. A river means something different when your mother is there than when you are alone.

Follow-up dialogue

Ask about a particular image, explore a recurring pattern, or connect the dream to your waking life. The conversation continues as long as you need.

42 symbols, 20+ sources

Interpretations draw from an expanding library of archetypal symbols, cross-referenced with traditions spanning five millennia of human dream culture.

Grounded in real scholarship

Jung, Hillman, Walker, Barrett, Hobson – our methodology bridges analytical psychology, archetypal theory, and modern sleep neuroscience.

Private. No dark patterns.

Your dreams are not training data. No accounts harvested. No engagement tricks. Just a quiet space for you and your unconscious.

How Somniary reads your dreams

When you describe a dream, Somniary does not look up individual symbols in a database. It reads the entire narrative – the places, the people, the emotional atmosphere, the moments that don't quite make sense – and interprets them as a unified story. This is the approach Carl Jung advocated: treating the dream as a self-contained drama with its own beginning, middle, and resolution.

Our interpretive framework draws on Jung's Collected Works (particularly volumes 5, 9i, and 12), James Hillman's archetypal psychology and his principle of "sticking to the image," Matthew Walker's neuroscience of REM sleep and emotional memory processing, and Deirdre Barrett's research on dream problem-solving at Harvard. We also reference Von Franz, Campbell, and comparative mythology spanning five millennia of human dream culture.

The current moon phase is woven into every interpretation – not as astrology, but as a symbolic framework that dreamers across cultures have found meaningful. Dreams during a full moon carry different archetypal weight than dreams during a new moon, and Somniary honours that dimension.

Your unconscious is sacred territory

Somniary uses a stateless architecture. Your dream is processed in memory, interpreted in a single session, and then forgotten. No dream text is stored on our servers. No conversation history is retained. Your dreams are not used for AI training, marketing profiles, or behavioral analysis.
