Superstitions about Dreams and Meanings of Dreams WHEN you had the dream: *Dreams at night are a devil's delight *Dreams in the morning, heed the angels' warning. WHAT the dream was about: ACORN Dreaming of acorns predicts pleasant things & that much gain is to be expected. For a woman to dream of eating acorns denotes that she will rise to a position of ease & pleasure. To dream of shaking acorns from a tree means that you will rapidly attain your wishes in business or love. AIRPORT In a dream the sight of a busy airport represents the desire for freedom and/or travel. If the airport is empty and deserted your own travel plans will be changed or delayed. ALMONDS If you see almonds in your dream you'll have a temporary sorrow. If you ate and enjoyed them, you'll be lucky, but if they tasted bitter, you should delay any contemplated changes for as long as possible. ANGELS A favorable dream forecasting success, protection, happiness, and rewarding friendships. BABY To see a baby in your dream signifies innocence, warmth and new beginnings. A love affair may be blooming for you in your near future. You will also make new and fun friends. If a woman dreams she is nursing a baby, she will be deceived by the one she trusts the most BALLOON Seeing balloons in your dream indicates a dashing of hope on any and all fronts, business or love, as well as a general falling off of all kinds of businesses you may be involved in. If you are ascending in a balloon this is an omen of especially frustrating conditions in your life. BEAR To dream of killing a bear foretells liberation from entanglements. BED To dream of a clean, white bed denotes the end of worries. If a woman dreams of making a bed, there will soon be a new lover in her life. BICYCLE To dream of riding a bicycle uphill signifies bright prospects. To dream of riding downhill calls for care - misfortune is near. BIRDS Flying birds are a sign of prosperity to the dreamer. BIRTH If you dream of death it's a sign of a birth, if you dream of birth, it's a sign of death. BUTTERFLY To see a butterfly among flowers indicates prosperity. To see butterflies flying around denotes news from absent friends by letter or from someone who has seen them. CANDLES To see candles burning with a clear and steady flame denotes the constancy of those around you and a well-grounded fortune. CATS Dreaming of a cat is a generally unfortunate omen and it shows treachery as well as a run of bad luck. *Cats attacking you represent enemies; if you succeed banishing them you will overcome great obstacles and rise in fortune and fame. CROW Seeing a crow in your dream means disappointment in everything, grief and misfortune. CROWN To dream of a crown predicts a change in your life. The dreamer will travel a long distance from home & form new relationships. DEATH If you dream of death it's a sign of a birth, if you dream of birth, it's a sign of death. DANCING To dream that you are dancing means that some unexpected good fortune will come to you. DECEASED PERSON If you should dream of a deceased person and this person speaks only to you, pay close attention to what the spirit is telling you as it could be very important to you. To dream of seeing a deceased person is normally a dream of warning, and it tells you that the influences around you at this time do not bode well for your affairs, and you should not enter into any binding contracts or verbal agreements. DIAMONDS To dream of owning diamonds is a very promising dream signifying great honor and recognition from high places. DOG To dream about a dog indicates great gain and constant friends. To hear the barking of dogs foretells news of depressing nature. Difficulties are more likely to follow. DRAGONFLY If you dream that a dragonfly lands on your body then you will have excellent news from someone far away from home. If you see a dead dragonfly, then the news will be bad. A dragonfly perched gracefully on some other object shows that you will soon be having guests that may be hard to get rid of. DRIVING If you dream that you are driving a vehicle it is a sign that you should be careful to take no chances with your money, such as gambling, in the next two weeks or so. If someone else is doing the driving you will find yourself in luck, money wise. FACE To dream of a smiling face signifies pleasant new friends, experiences, and/or financial gains. To dream of unpleasant or grotesque (unless amusingly so) faces portend loss. To dream you are washing your face denotes a necessity to atone for some past indiscretion; better make amends! To see the faces of strangers signifies an approaching change of residence. FALLING To dream of falling indicates a loss of emotional equilibrium or self-control. It may represent your insecurity, a lack of self-confidence, a fear of failure or an inability to cope with a situation. If you fall a long distance in your dream and get hurt, be prepared for really hard times ahead; but if you fall and are not injured your upsets will be minor and temporary. |

Nothing beats the south african one where some men believed r@ping a virgin meant a cure of aids... Actually another would be congolese tribes involved in the civil war who thought the r@pe of women gathering wood was a necessary sacrifice to bring the rebels good fortune. Lolz...i swear i didnt make this up! |
