Church.—To dream of a church is portentous of evil. If you are in a church during divine service, you will be engaged in a lawsuit or some quarrel that will very near ruin you; if you are in love, your sweetheart is unfaithful, and prefers another.
Dancing.—To dream you are dancing at a ball, wake or entertainment foretells that you will shortly receive some joyful news from a long absent friend, or that you are about to inherit some unexpected legacy; it foretells success and happiness in love; your sweetheart is kind and true, and will make you very happy in marriage; increase of children to married persons, and of business to those in trade.
Darkness.—To dream you are in a very dark place, or that you are in the dark, is a very unfavorable omen; to the lover, it denotes the loss of your sweetheart; to the trader, loss by debts, business; to the farmer, bad crops; to the sailor, shipwreck and misfortune. To dream you get out of darkness into light denotes good to the dreamer; if you are in poverty, you will rise to riches and honor; if you are in love, it denotes a happy marriage and many children, with an industrious husband or wife; expect also to hear some glad tidings from a far distant country.
Earthquake.—To dream of an earthquake warns you that your affairs are about to take a very great change; if you see many houses tumbled into ruins, then it will be much for the better; should the houses appear to stand, then for the worse; for the lover, it foretells that your sweetheart is about to take a journey, and that it is a chance if you ever see each other again.
Eating.—To dream you are eating is a very unfavorable omen; it portends disunion amongst your family, losses in trade, and disappointment in love.

Fighting.—To dream you are fighting denotes to the lover that you will lose the object of your affections through a foolish quarrel; it also forebodes much opposition to your wishes, with loss of character and property. After such a dream you should leave your present situation, because such a dream indicates that you will not prosper in it; to the sailor it denotes storms and shipwreck, with disappointment in love.
Fire.—To dream of this subtle element denotes health and happiness to the lover, marriage with the object of your affections, and many children; you will be very angry with some one on a trifling occasion.

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.
