MIDWIFE. To see a midwife denotes revealing of secrets; to the sick, it is death. 18, 4.
MILK. (See [Pitcher] and [Breast].) Dreaming of milk predicts, to a man, the love of a lady. If a newly married lady dream that she has a full breast of milk, it is a sign that she will be happily delivered of a fine child; to an old woman, it portends much money. 45, 60.
MILL. If you dream of going to a flouring-mill, where you see plenty of grain and flour, it is a good omen, as it shadows forth thrift and abundance; but to imagine in your dream that you are in any manufactory of cloth fabrics called a mill, is a sign of poverty and want. Girls who work in such places should be careful never to dream of them. 55.
MISER. To dream of a miser is a sign of waste, loss or destruction: if you see him counting and hoarding money, it foretells you will either lose or be robbed of some: to see him patching his clothes or his house or barn denotes a calamity, such as a robbery or a fire. 14, 62.
MISFORTUNE. To dream you have a misfortune denotes luck and success: thus; dreaming of the loss of money is a sign you will get some: if you imagine your house is burned, you will be successful in a speculation: if you dream of being robbed, it foretells a legacy or the finding of something valuable, &c. 41.
MISTAKE. If any one dreams of being vexed, annoyed, or injured by reason of making a mistake, it shadows forth disgrace. Mistaking one person for another in your dream, denotes scandal: thus if a young girl should dream that she hailed a young man as her lover, and found it was a stranger, it shows that some malicious person will talk lightly of her character. 78, 16.
MONEY. (See Purse and Pocket Book.) To dream of finding money is an excellent omen, as it foretells that you will soon get some: if, in your dream, you see bank bills of a large denomination, or large gold pieces, the sign is similar: to see small pieces of money is not so good, though it is a pretty fair dream. To dream of receiving money is a good omen; in love, it foretells marriage and children. To dream you lose money, is a proof you will be unsuccessful in some favorite pursuit. 18, 4.
MONKEY. To dream that you see a monkey, and are pleased with his antics, shows that you will make the acquaintance of a fool. For a girl to dream of playing with a monkey is a sign she will do something she is ashamed of, and perhaps lose her virtue. Monkeys are also a sign of law suits and secret enemies. 17, 6.
MOON. To dream of a sharp new moon with horns pointing upwards is a sign you will be rich: if the horns point sideways or downward, it foretells poverty: seeing a full moon in your dream denotes a thrifty and happy marriage: a half moon shadows forth the loss of a wife or husband by death or desertion. Dreaming of seeing a half moon is fatal to the prospects of lovers. 19, 18.
MOUNTAIN. To dream of approaching beautiful smooth-looking mountains, dressed in verdure, denotes thrift and happiness, and that you will rise in the world: if the mountains look steep, rugged and rocky, it foreshadows difficulties and danger, which you may overcome by energy: to dream of successfully climbing a mountain, is a sure sign that some honor awaits you, or that you will make a good deal of money: difficulties in climbing show troubles and vexations in getting your honors or your money. 64.
