DAYBREAK. Good fortune in every thing you undertake. 64, 7.

DEATH. To dream you see death, denotes happiness and long life; that you will be either speedily married yourself, or assist at a wedding. To dream you see another person dead, denotes hasty news from friends. 61, 4.

DEBT. To dream of paying a debt with money, foretells that you will soon receive some. If you imagine that you owe a debt, and are worrying to get the money to pay, it is a sign of sickness. 18, 64.

DEEDS. To sign your name to deeds, is a bad sign; to a man, loss in business; to a woman, the inconstancy of her lover. 7, 8.

DEER. If you see these animals in your dream, it shows that you will hear some unexpected news—no matter what—perhaps a marriage, a death, an accident, or a legacy has been left to you; or that some one is in love with you. 12.

DEVIL. To dream of this enemy to the human race, denotes that many dangers threaten you, all of which you will overcome if you carefully withstand all temptations to do evil; in love it forebodes loss of the affections; in trade, opposition; to dream you are pursued by an evil spirit, is also a bad omen. 61, 18.

DIAMONDS. To dream you wear a diamond, denotes that you will be crossed in love, and that your lover is unfaithful. For a man of business to dream that he is dealing in diamonds, is good, it is a sure thing with him, that he will become wealthy, and retire to private life much respected. 33, 3.

DICE. To dream you are playing at dice, backgammon, or draughts, denotes much good to the dreamer, in either love, marriage, or business. To a young girl, engaged to be married, dreaming of dice foretells that her lover will be wild and not of much account. 54.

DIFFICULTY. If you imagine in your dream that you are in great difficulty, or in personal danger of any kind, it is a favorable sign, as such dreams always go by contrary. 17, 27.

DIGGING. To dream of digging in clean and healthy ground, is a sign of thrift, and good luck generally: if the ground be dirty or wet, it shows trouble: if you are digging for gold, and find large and rich lumps, it shows you’ll have some good luck, but if the product is meagre, or if you don’t find any, it foretells disappointment. If you lose any of your tools it is a sign of a quarrel. 14, 71.
