TEETH. To dream you lose your teeth, denotes the loss of friends, troubles, and misfortunes; to the lover it shows the loss of your sweetheart’s affections: to dream you cut a new tooth, denotes the birth of a child who will make a figure in the world. 33, 11, 2.
TELEGRAPH. To dream of one denotes tidings from abroad, in a short space of time, and still more speedily if you think the telegraph is at work. 47, 10, 78.
TELESCOPE. (See Spy-Glass.) To dream of looking through a telescope at a distance over farm lands, is a sign you will either purchase a farm or inherit one: if you dream of looking at the stars, it shows that you will rise in the world—if at the moon, and you are delighted with the view, it predicts for you great riches. 7, 14.
TEMPEST. (See [Storm].) To dream of long-continuing and great tempests, signifies affliction, troubles, dangers, losses and perils; to the poor, repose. 57, 8.
TEN-PINS. To dream of playing ten-pins, foretells disgrace; if the centre pin falls, one of the players will die; if many pins fall, all of the players will suffer loss. 10, 2, 20.
THAW. To dream of a thaw, and walking in splashy snow, foretells trouble and losses: if a young fellow dreams that he walks through splashy snow to go a courting, it is a sign that he will quarrel with his sweetheart. 34, 18.
THEATRE. For a young man to dream of taking his sweetheart to the theatre, is a sign that she will favor a new beau: if he dreams of going to the theatre alone, and seeing his lady-love among the audience, it shows that she has already seen and spoken to a gentleman that she likes better than him: if a lady dreams this of her beau, the omen is similar. 2, 4, 8.
THIEF. (See [Stealing].) To dream that thieves break into your house and rob you, is a sign of honor or profit—the greater the robbery, the more extensive will be your good fortune: if you dream that you catch a thief and deliver him over to the officers of justice, it denotes that you will have trouble in connection with your good fortune. 49, 16, 3.
THIRST. If any one dream of thirst or of drinking water, if the water appear clear and acceptable, he will live joyfully and become wealthy; if the water be troubled, warm, or offensive, it forewarns him that without prudence, he will end his days in affliction. 20, 49.
THORN. For a girl to dream of accidentally sticking a thorn into her finger is a sign she will have a ring presented to her, probably a wedding ring: if a married woman dreams this, some outsider will make love to her by first offering a ring. If any one dreams of sticking a thorn in either foot or leg, it foretells improper intimacy with the opposite sex which will not end in disgrace, but in marriage: married people who dream this will do the same thing and not be found out. 39.
