an excellent word. It is interesting that English adjectives deriving from "dream" cannot really be used to talk about actual dreaming: "dreamy" and "dreamlike" both mean something quite different from "relating to dreaming". This is where "oneiric" comes in handy: oneiric images, oneiric symbols, the oneiric dimension, an oneiric situation. Sometimes using "dream" as an adjective works, but at other times that can be confusing.
