Acid
Acid is corrosive, and in dreams it often carries anxiety — something that eats away, or a situation that could harm if mishandled. To drink it can mark worry taken inward; to see it, a treachery that may yet be uncovered. The dream tends to ask what is quietly wearing at us, and what needs handling with care.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for acid, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To drink any acid is an adverse dream, bringing you much anxiety.
For a woman to drink aciduous liquors, denotes that she may ensnare herself with compromising situations; even health may be involved.
To see poisonous acids, some treachery against you may be discovered.
