Accuse
Accusation in a dream sets blame in motion, and which way it points matters. To accuse another can mark friction with those around or beneath us; to be accused can mirror our own uneasy conscience, or a fear of how we will be judged. The older books read being accused as oddly favourable. The dream asks where blame truly belongs.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for accuse, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream that you accuse any one of a mean action, denotes that you will have quarrels with those under you, and your dignity will be thrown from a high pedestal.
If you are accused, you are in danger of being guilty of distributing scandal in a sly and malicious way.

Fontaine, 1862
To dream a person accuses you of any thing, is favorable to the dreamer.
