The Science of Foretelling Future Events by Dreams. - - -Since the world began, “coming events have cast shadows before,” and -many of the important incidents in our lives are shown us in our dreams -if we only understood their full interpretation. - -The following are a few of the most certain signs, and can almost -invariably be relied upon. For dreams not mentioned here, a pleasant -dream almost invariably indicates good health, successful ventures and -general prosperity, while evil dreams are forebodings of ill health and -other troubles. - -Abuse.--To dream that you are abused and insulted is a certain sign -you will have a dispute with some person with whom you have business, -and, after such a dream, you should be particularly careful to be as -gentle and mild as possible, that you may not give those with whom -you have dealings any advantage over you; if you are in love, be -assured that some one has attempted to injure you with the object of -your affections, and that they have in a great measure succeeded. You -should, therefore, after such a dream, be particularly attentive; -eradicate the unfavorable impressions that have been made; if you have -a lawsuit, keep a sharp lookout after your attorney, for such a dream, -in that case, denotes that he is endeavoring to sell your cause; avoid -taking a journey by land, or a voyage by sea, for eight and forty -hours, because such a dream forebodes accidents by travelling. - -Abraham.--To dream of Abraham denotes good fortune, accumulation of -riches; in love, many rivals; in law, many difficulties, an increase in -your business. He may give you some valuable information how to avoid -trouble. - -Adam.--To dream of Adam is a particularly good omen, and brings good -fortune to the dreamer. - -Adversary.--To dream you meet with an adversary denotes that you will -overcome some obstacle to your happiness; if you are a lover, you will -conquer some powerful rival, and be happy in your love; your affairs -are going on well; if you are in trade, an increase of business; if you -quarrel, and he overcomes you, it is a good sign, for you will conquer -all obstacles to your promotion, happiness and fortune; but, if you -conquer him, then you will never rise to any great preferment by the -means you are at present adopting; many things will miscarry with you, -but in general you will be fortunate. - -Acquaintance.--To dream you quarrel or fight with an acquaintance is -unlucky; it forebodes a division amongst your own family, much to -the injury and prejudice of the dreamer; if you are in love, your -sweetheart will prove unfaithful, and marry some one else; if you are -in business, heavy loss will befall you, and you will disagree with -some of your best friends on the most trivial matters; if you have a -law-suit, your attorney will neglect you, your witnesses will be tardy -and backward, and finally you will lose your cause. Do not for some -time undertake a journey by land, or a voyage by sea, or enter into new -undertakings, for you will be unsuccessful; leave, if you can, your -present place of residence, and, above all, avoid lending money, for -you will surely lose it, together with the friendship of those to whom -you lend it. - -Angels.--To dream you see angels in your sleep is a sure sign that one -is near you, therefore be mindful of the rest of your dream, for it -will come to pass pretty accurately; should you dream you see an angel, -or angels, then it denotes health, prosperity, and much happiness, -with many children who will turn out good. If you are in love, nothing -can be more favorable, and all your undertakings will prosper and be -advantageous to you. - -Apparitions.--To dream you see a ghost, hobgoblin, spectre, and such -kind of things, is of a very unfortunate nature, they denote vexation -and disappointment; if you are in love, it is a certain sign of your -not being beloved in return. Some one is about to deceive you and -you are friendly with one who is your most inveterate enemy; do not -undertake a journey, for it will be unfortunate for you; be careful of -contracting debts, for such a dream forebodes great trouble through -some one to whom you shall owe money. - -Asps.--To dream of asps denotes that you will become extremely rich, -and have great quantities of money by you; if you are in love, it -imports that your love will be returned, and that your sweetheart will -become through your means extremely wealthy. - -Bagpipes.--To dream of this instrument of Scottish music indicates -that the dreamer will experience great trouble, and that he will labor -to little purpose; in love, it denotes that the marriage state will -be full of cares, and that you will in it experience much poverty and -distress. - -Basin.--To dream you are eating or drinking out of a basin is a certain -sign that you will soon be in love, but without great care you will not -marry the first object of your affections; it denotes prosperity in -your trade; and to the farmer, a good crop. - -Bathing.--To dream you are bathing yourself in clear water denotes -happiness, prosperity, and success in love; if the water is dirty, then -it foretells shame and sorrow, and a disappointment in love. - -Beans.--To dream of beans is an unfavorable dream, it is the forerunner -of troubles and quarrels; if you are in love, expect a difference -between you and your sweetheart. - -Bees.--To dream of them has a variety of interpretations according to -their different situations.

To dream that you -are burnt by fire denotes great danger, and that enemies will injure -you. - -Fishing.--To dream you are fishing is a sure sign of sorrow and -trouble; if you catch any fish you will be successful in love and -business; if you catch none you will never marry your present -sweetheart, nor succeed in your present undertakings; if they slip out -of your hands after you have caught them, the person you marry will be -of a roving disposition, and some pretended friend will deceive you. - -Flowers.--To dream you are gathering flowers is a very favorable omen; -expect to thrive in everything you undertake, and that you will be -successful in love, marry happily, and have beautiful children; should -they wither under your hands, then heavy losses in trade; that your -sweetheart will die; or, if you are married, that you will lose your -husband or wife, and also your favorite child. - -Fortune.--To dream you make a sudden fortune is a very bad omen; to -the tradesman it forbodes losses in trade and quarreling with his -creditors; to the lover, it denotes that your sweetheart does not -return your love.
