Aside from that book in all my experience with dreaming, dream magick and lucid dreaming I've never encountered anything that was physically dangerous. I've had some prety realistic dreams and perhaps if i was extremely sick, elderly or other wise near death I might have scared myself to death but other than that dreams are physically harmless. However lucid dreaming can be harmfull if done too much. If one does this too much they can inhibit their normal sleep cycle and prevent themselves from getting enough REM. While one wouldn't die from this necessairly they could cause a variety of health problems.
Psychologically dreams can be dangerous in many ways. The power of suggestion may lead us to believe in things that are not real. If you believe you are talking to entities and they are some how commanding you that too is not healthy. Dreams can also tap into underlying mental conditions and emotions especially anxiety, depression and irrational fears.
hum.. never thought about that... I know he used some drugs to AP... that may have some influence too...
