Abandon:
To dream that you are abandoned, denotes that you will
have difficulty in framing your plans for future success. To abandon
others, you will see unhappy conditions piled thick around you,
leaving little hope of surmounting them. If it is your house that
you abandon, you will soon come to grief in experimenting with
fortune. If you abandon your sweetheart, you will fail to recover
lost valuables, and friends will turn aside from your favors. If you
abandon a mistress, you will unexpectedly come into a goodly
inheritance. If it is religion you abandon, you will come to grief
by your attacks on prominent people. To abandon children, denotes
that you will lose your fortune by lack of calmness and judgment. To
abandon your business, indicates distressing circumstances in which
there will be quarrels and suspicion. (This dream may have a literal
fulfillment if it is impressed on your waking mind, whether you
abandon a person, or that person abandons you, or, as indicated, it
denotes other worries.) To see yourself or friend abandon a ship,
suggests your possible entanglement in some business failure, but if
you escape to shore your interests will remain secure. (See
Forsaking)
Abdomen:
To see your abdomen in a dream, foretells that you will
have great expectations, but you must curb hardheadedness and
redouble your energies on your labor, as pleasure is approaching to
your hurt. To see your abdomen shriveled, foretells that you will be
persecuted and defied by false friends. To see it swollen, you will
have tribulations, but you will overcome them and enjoy the fruits
of your labor. To see blood oozing from the abdomen, foretells an
accident or tragedy in your family. The abdomen of children in an
unhealthy state, warns that sickness will follow you. (See
Belly) Abhor:
To dream that you abhor a person, denotes that you will
entertain strange dislike for some person, and your suspicion of his
honesty will prove correct. T o think yourself held in abhorrence by
others, predicts that your good intentions to others will subside
into selfishness. For a young woman to dream that her lover abhors
her, foretells that she will love a man who is in no sense
good-natured. Abject:
To dream that you are miserable, denotes that you will be
the recipient of gloomy tidings, which will cause a relaxation in
your exhausting efforts to climb the heights of success. To see
others abject, is a sign of bickering and false dealings among your
friends.
Abode: To dream that you can't find your abode, you will
completely lose faith in the truthfulness of others. If you have no
abode in your dreams, you will be unfortunate in your affairs, and
lose by speculation. To change your abode, signifies hurried tidings
and that hasty journeys will be made by you. For a young woman to
dream that she has left her abode, is significant of slander and
falsehoods being perpetrated against her. (See
Home.)
Abortion:
For a woman to dream that she consents to abortion being
committed on her, is a warning that she is contemplating some
enterprise which if carried out will immerse her in disgrace and
unhappiness. For a doctor to dream that he is a party to an
abortion, foretells that his practice will suffer from his
inattention to duty, which will cause much trouble.
Above:
To see anything hanging above you, and about to fall,
implies danger. If it falls upon you, it may be ruin or sudden
disappointment. If it falls near, but misses you, it is a sign that
you will have a narrow escape from loss of money, or other
misfortunes may follow. Should it be securely fixed above you, so as
not to imply danger, your condition will improve after threatened
loss. Abroad:
To dream that you are abroad, or going abroad, foretells
that you will soon, in with a group, make a pleasant trip. You will find it necessary to
take a break from your native country to a different climate.
Absence: To grieve over the absence of any one in your dreams,
denotes that repentance for some hasty action will be the means of
securing you life-long friendships. If you rejoice over the absence
of friends, it denotes that you will soon be well rid of an enemy.
Abscess:
To dream that you have an abscess which seems to have
reached a chronic stage, you will be overwhelmed with misfortune of
your own at the same time your deepest sympathies will be enlisted
for the sorrows of others.
Absinthe:
To come under the influence of absinthe in dreams,
denotes that you will lead a merry and foolish pace with innocent
companions, and waste your inheritance in reckless extravagance of selfish fancy. For a young woman to dream that she drinks
absinthe with her lover warns her to resist his persuasions to
illicit consummation of their love. If she dreams she is drunk, she
will yield up her favors without strong arguments. (This dream
typifies that you are likely to waste your energies in pleasure.)
Abundance:
To dream that you are possessed with an abundance
foretells that you will have no occasion to rebuke
Fortune, and that you will be independent of her future
favors but your domestic happiness may suffer a collapse
under the strain you are likely to put upon it by your
infidelity. Abuse:
To dream of abusing a person, means that you will be
unfortunate in your affairs, losing good money through over-bearing
persistency in business relations with others. To feel yourself
abused, you will be mistreated in your daily pursuits by the
opposition of
others. For a young woman to dream that she hears abusive language,
foretells that she will fall under the action of some person's jealousy
and envy. If she uses the language herself, she will meet with
unexpected rebuffs, that may fill her with humiliation and remorse
for her past unworthy conduct toward friends.
Abyss:
To dream of looking into an abyss, means that you will
be confronted by threats of seizure of property, and that there will
be quarrels and reproaches of a personal nature which will make you
ill-equipped
to meet the problems of life. For a woman to be looking into an
abyss, foretells that she will burden herself with unwelcome cares. If she falls into the abyss her disappointment will be complete but
if she succeeds in crossing, or avoiding it, she will reinstate
herself. (See Precipice)
Academy:
To visit an academy in your dreams, denotes that you
will regret opportunities that you have let pass through
sheer idleness and indifference. To think you own, or
are a student of one, you will find that you are to meet
easy defeat of aspirations. You will take on
knowledge, but be unable to accurately absorb and apply it. For a
young woman or any person to return to an academy after
having finished there, signifies that demands will be
made which the dreamer may find himself or herself
unable to meet.
Accepted:
For a business man to dream that his proposition has
been accepted, foretells that he will succeed in making
a trade, which heretofore looked as if it would prove a
failure. For a lover to dream that he has been accepted
by his sweetheart, denotes that he will happily wed the
object of his own and others' admiration. If this dream
has been motivated by over anxiety and weakness, the
contrary may be expected. The elementary influences
often play pranks upon weak and credulous minds by
lying, and deceptive utterances. Therefore the dreamer
should live a pure life, fortified by a strong will,
thus controlling his destiny by expelling from it
involuntary intrusions. Accident:
To dream of an accident is a warning to avoid any mode
of travel for a short period, as you are threatened with loss of
life. For an accident to befall stock, denotes that you will
struggle with all your might to gain some object and then see some
friend lose property of the same value in aiding your cause.
Accordion:
To dream of hearing the music of an accordion, denotes
that you will engage in amusement which will protect you from sadness
and retrospection. You will by this means be enabled to take up your
burden more cheerfully. For a young woman to dream that she is
playing an accordion, foretells that she will win her lover by some
sad occurrence but, notwithstanding which, the same will confer
lasting happiness upon her union. If the accordion gets out of tune,
she will be saddened by the illness or trouble of her lover.
Accounts:
To dream of having accounts presented to you for
payment, you will be in a dangerous position. You may
have recourse to law to disentangle yourself. If you pay
the accounts, you will soon effect a compromise in some
serious dispute. To hold accounts against others,
foretells that disagreeable contingencies will arise in
your business, marring the smoothness of its management. For a young woman bookkeeper to dream of footing up
accounts, denotes that she will have trouble in
business, and in her love affairs but some worthy person
will persuade her to account for his happiness. She will
be much respected by her present employers.
Accuse:
To dream that you accuse any one of a mean action,
denotes that you will have quarrels with those under
you, and your dignity will be thrown from a high
pedestal. If you are accused, you are in danger of
being guilty of distributing scandal in a sly and
malicious way.
Aches:
To dream that you have aches, denotes that you are
faltering too much in your business, and that some other person is
profiting by your ideas. For a young woman to dream that she
has
heartache, foretells that she will be in distress over the lazybones way her lover
acts. If it is a backache,
she will encounter illness through careless exposure. If she has
a
headache, there will be much disquietude of mind for the risk she
has taken to rid herself of rivalry. This dream is usually due to
physical causes and is of little significance.
Acid:
To drink any acid is an adverse dream, bringing you much
anxiety. For a woman to drink acid, denotes that she may ensnare
herself with compromising situations even health may be involved. To
see poisonous acids, some treachery against you may be discovered.
Acorn:
Seeing acorns in dreams, is a sign of pleasant things
ahead, and much gain is to be expected. To pick them from the
ground, foretells success after weary labors. For a woman to eat
them, denotes that she will rise from a station of labor to a
position of ease and pleasure. To shake them from the trees, denotes
that you will rapidly attain your wishes in business or love. To see
green-growing acorns, or to see them scattered over the ground,
affairs will change for the better. Decayed have meanings of disappointments and reverses. To pull them green from the
trees, you will injure your interests by haste and indiscretion.
Acquaintance:
To meet an acquaintance, and converse pleasantly with
him, foretells that your business will run smoothly, and there will
be but little discord in your domestic affairs. If you seem to be
disputing, or engaged in loud talk, humiliations and embarrassments
will whirl madly around you. If you feel ashamed of meeting an
acquaintance, or meet him at an inopportune time, it denotes that
you will be guilty of illicitly conducting yourself, and other
parties will let the secret out. For a young woman to think
that she has far-reaching acquaintances, signifies that she will be the
possessor of vast interests, and her love will be worthy the
winning. If her circle of acquaintances is small, she will be
unlucky in gaining social favors. After dreaming of acquaintances,
you may see or hear from them.
Acquit:
To dream that you are acquitted of a crime, denotes that
you are about to come into possession of valuable
property, but there is danger of a law suit before
obtaining possession. To see others acquitted, foretells
that your friends will add pleasure to your labors.
Acrobat:
To dream of seeing acrobats, denotes that you will be
prevented from carrying out hazardous schemes by the foolish fears
of others. To see yourself as an acrobat, you will have a
hullabaloo to
answer for, and your existence will be made almost unendurable by
the guying of your enemies. To see women as acrobats, denotes that
your name will be maliciously and slanderously handled. Also your
business interests will be hindered. For a young woman to dream that
she sees acrobats in tights, signifies that she will cozy up to
men.
Actor and Actress:
To see in your dreams an actress, denotes that your
present state will be one of unbroken pleasure and favor. To see one
in distress, you will gladly contribute your means and influence to
raise a friend from misfortune and indebtedness. If you think
yourself one, you will have to work for survival, but your labors
will be pleasantly attended. If you dream of being in love with one,
your inclination and talent will be allied with pleasure as opposed
to downright toil. To see a dead actor, or actress, your good luck
will be overwhelmed in violent and insubordinate misery. To see them
wandering and penniless, foretells that your affairs will undergo a
change from promise to threatening of failure. To those enjoying
domestic comforts, it is a warning of revolution and faithless vows. For a young woman to dream that she is engaged to an actor, or about
to marry one, foretells that her fancy will bring remorse after the
glamour of pleasure has vanished. If a man dreams that he is
sporting with an actress, it foretells that private broils with his
wife, or sweetheart, will bring him more misery than enjoyment.
Adam and Eve:
To dream of Adam and Eve, foretells that some eventful
occasion will rob you of the hope of success in your
affairs. To see them in the garden, Adam dressed in his
fig leaf, but Eve perfectly nude save for an Oriental
colored serpent adorning her waist and abdomen,
signifies that treachery and ill faith will combine to
overthrow your fortune. To see or hear Eve conversing
with the serpent, foretells that artful women will
reduce you to the loss of fortune and reputation.
Adamant:
To dream of adamant, denotes that you will be troubled
and defeated in some desire that you held as your life.
Addition: To dream of pondering over addition, denotes that you
will have a struggle to overcome difficult situations, which will
soon prominently assume formidable shapes in your business
transactions. To find some error in addition, shows that you will be
able to overcome enemies by fortunately discerning their intention
before they have executed their design. To add figures with a
machine, foretells that you will have a powerful assistant who will save
you from much oppression. If you fail to read the figures, you will
lose fortune by blind speculation. Adieu:
To dream of bidding cheerful adieus to people, denotes
that you will make pleasant visits and enjoy much social festivity
but if they are made in a sad or doleful strain, you will endure
loss and bereaving sorrow. If you bid adieu to home and country, you
will travel in the nature of an exile from fortune and love. To
throw kisses of adieu to loved ones, or children, foretells that you
will soon have a journey to make, but there will be no unpleasant
accidents or happenings attending your trip.
Admire:
To dream that you are an object of admiration, denotes
that you will retain the love of former associates, though your
position will take you above their circle.
Admonish:
To admonish your child, or son, or some young person,
denotes that your generous principles will keep you in favor, and
fortune will be added to your gifts.
Adopted:
To see your adopted child, or parent, in your dreams,
indicates that you will amass fortune through the schemes and
speculations of strangers. To dream that you or others are adopting
a child, you will make an unfortunate change in your abode.
Adulation:
To dream that you seek adulation, foretells that you
will arrogantly fill unmerited positions of honor. If you offer
adulation, you will expressly part with some dear belonging in the
hope of furthering material interests.
Adultery:
To dream that you commit adultery, foretells that you
will be arraigned for some illegal action. If a woman has this
dream, she will fail to hold her husband's affections, letting her
temper and spite overwhelm her at the least provocation. If it is
with her husband's friend, she will be unjustly ignored by her
husband. Her rights will be cruelly trampled upon by him. If she
thinks she is enticing a youth into this act, she will be in danger
of desertion and divorced for her open intriguing. For a young woman
this implies abasement and low desires, in which she will find
strange adventures afford her pleasure. It is always good to dream
that you have successfully resisted any temptation. To yield, is
bad. If a man chooses low ideals, vampirism influences will swarm
around him ready to help him in his evil designs. Such dreams
may only be the result of depraved elementary influences. If a
man chooses high ideals, he will be illuminated by the divine principle
within him, and will be exempt from lascivious dreams. The man who
denies the existence and power of evil spirits has no secret or
occult knowledge. Did not the black magicians of Pharaoh's time, and
Simon Magnus, the Sorcerer, rival the men of God? The dreamer of
amorous sweets is warned to beware of scandal.
Advancement:
To dream of advancing in any engagement, denotes your
rapid superiority to advancement and to the consummation of affairs of
the heart. To see others advancing, foretells that friends will hold
positions of favor near you.
Adventurer:
To dream that you are victimized by an adventurer,
proves that you will be an easy prey for flatterers and designing
villains. You will be unfortunate in manipulating your affairs to a
smooth consistency. For a young woman to think she is an
adventuress, foretells that she will be too wrapped up in her own
conduct to see that she is being flattered into exchanging her
favors for disgrace. Adversary:
To dream that you meet or engage with an
adversary, denotes that you will promptly defend any attacks on your
interest. Sickness may also threaten you after this dream.
If you overcome an adversary, you will escape the effect of some
serious disaster. Adversity:
To dream that you are in the clutches of adversity,
denotes that you will have failures and continued bad prospects. To
see others in adversity, foretells gloomy surroundings, and the
illness of some one will produce grave fears of the successful
working of plans. The old dream books give this as a sign of coming
prosperity. This definition is untrue. There are two forces at work
in man, one from within and the other from without. They are from
two distinct spheres, the animal mind influenced by the personal
world of carnal appetites, and the spiritual mind from the realm of
universal Brotherhood, present hostile motives on the dream
consciousness. If these two forces were in harmony, the spirit or
mental picture from the dream mind would find a literal fulfillment
in the life of the dreamer. The pleasurable sensations of the body
cause the spirit anguish. The selfish enrichment of the body
impoverishes the spirit influence upon the Soul. The trials of
adversity often cause the spirit to rejoice and the flesh to weep.
If the cry of the grieved spirit is left on the dream mind it may
indicate to the dreamer worldly advancement, but it is hardly the
theory of the occult forces. (See
Enemy)
Advertisement:
To dream that you are getting out advertisements,
denotes that you will have to resort to physical labor
to promote your interest, or establish your fortune. To
read advertisements, denotes that enemies will overtake
you, and defeat you in rivalry. Advice:

be enabled to raise your standard of integrity, and strive by honest
means to reach independent competency and moral altitude. To dream

transactions in your affairs which will create doubt of their merits
and legality. Advocate:

calls your energy to a halt, foretells that some
disaster is surely approaching you. To see others
afflicted, foretells that you will be surrounded by many
ills and misfortunes.
Affrighted: To dream that you are
affrighted, foretells that you will sustain an injury
through an accident. To see others affrighted, brings you close to misery and
distressing scenes. Dreams of this nature are frequently
caused by nervous and feverish conditions, either from
malaria or excitement. When such is the case, the
dreamer is warned to take immediate steps to remove the
cause. Such dreams or reveries only occur when sleep is
disturbed. (See
Agony,
Weeping,
Frightened) Affluence:
To dream that you are in affluence, foretells that you
will make fortunate ventures, and will be pleasantly associated with
people of wealth. To young women, a vision of weird and fairy
affluence is ominous of illusive and temporary pleasure. They
should study more closely their duty to friends and parents. After
dreams of this nature they are warned to cultivate a love for home
life. (See
Wealth)
Affront:
This is a bad dream. The dreamer is sure to shed
tears and weep. For a young woman to dream that she is
affronted, denotes that some unfriendly person will take advantage
of her ignorance to place her in a compromising situation with a
stranger, or to jeopardize her interests with a friend.

or continue a journey, denotes that you will find trouble in your

in business affairs. Age:
To dream of age, foretells failures in any kind of
undertaking. To dream of your own age, indicates that perversity of
opinion will bring down upon you the indignation of relatives. For a
young woman to dream of being accused of being older than she is,
denotes that she will fall into bad companionship, and her denial of
stated things will be brought to scorn. To see herself looking aged,
intimates possible sickness, or unsatisfactory ventures. If it is
her lover she sees aged, she will be in danger of losing him.
Agony:
This is not as good a dream, as some would wish you to
believe. It foretells worry and pleasure intermingled, more of the
former than of the latter. To be in agony over the loss of money, or
property, denotes that disturbing and imaginary fears will rack you
over the critical condition of affairs, or the illness of some dear
relative. (See
Affrighted, Weeping)
Air:
This dream denotes a withering state of things, and
bodes no good to the dreamer. To dream of breathing hot
air suggests that you will be influenced to evil by
oppression. To feel cold air, denotes discrepancies in
your business, and incompatibility in domestic
relations. To feel oppressed with humidity, some curse
will fall on you that will depress and close down on
your optimistic views of the future. (See

fulfilled. If they play a tragedy, evil will be spread through

some enterprise apart from your regular business.
Ambush:
To dream that your are attacked from ambush, denotes

set upon and overthrow you if you are heedless of warnings. If you

pleasing work to the farmer, an abundant crop, favorable to
women. Cold or small favors may be expected from those in power. The means of success is in your power, but in order to obtain it you
will have to labor under difficulty. If the anvil is broken, it
foretells that you have, through your own neglect, thrown away
promising opportunities that cannot be recalled.

denoting, after threatening conditions, success and
rejuvenation of mind, but if the dreamer is anxious about
some momentous affair, it indicates a disastrous
combination of business and social status.

successes or failures, as the apparel seems to be whole and clean,
or soiled and threadbare. To see fine apparel, but out of date,

environments and enter into new relations, new enterprises, and new
loves, which will transform you into a different person. To see
yourself or others wearing white, denotes eventful changes, and

intermingling of good and bad influences in your future. To dream of
misfitting apparel, indicates crosses in your affections, and that
you are likely to make a mistake in some enterprise. To see old or
young in appropriate apparel, denotes that you will undertake some
engagement for which you will have no liking, and which will give
rise to many cares. For a woman to dream that she is displeased with
her apparel, foretells that she will find many annoying rivalries
in her quest for social distinction. To admire the apparel of
others, denotes that she will have jealous fears of her friends. To
dream of the loss of any article of apparel, denotes disturbances in
your business and love affairs. For a young woman to dream of being
attired in a gauzy black costume, foretells she will undergo
chaos and disappointment. For a young woman to dream
that she meets another attired in a crimson dress with a crepe
mourning veil over her face, foretells she will be outrivaled by one
she hardly considers her equal, and bitter disappointment will sour
her against women generally. The dreamer interpreting the dream of
apparel should be careful to note whether the objects are looking
natural. If the faces are distorted and the light unearthly, though
the colors are bright, beware the miscarriage of some worthy plan
will work you harm. There are few dreams in which the element of
evil is lacking, as there are few enterprises in waking life from
which the element of chance is prevented. (See
Clothes, Coat).

to the dreamer. To eat them is not as good, unless they be
faultless. A friend who interprets dreams says: Ripe apples on a
tree, denotes that the time has arrived for you to realize your
hopes, think over what you intend to do, and go fearlessly ahead. Ripe on the top of the tree, warns you not to aim too high. Apples

you harm. Decayed apples typify hopeless efforts.
