Amorous
To feel amorous in a dream brings desire to the surface, and with it a quiet caution about where appetite may lead. It can warn that pleasures pursued too freely risk entangling us. The dream tends to ask what we long for, and whether the wanting is leading us somewhere we would rather not go.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for amorous, 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 you are amorous, warns you against personal desires and pleasures, as they are threatening to engulf you in scandal.
For a young woman it portends illicit engagements, unless she chooses staid and moral companions. For a married woman, it foreshadows discontent and desire for pleasure outside the home.
To see others amorous, foretells that you will be persuaded to neglect your moral obligations. To see animals thus, denotes you will engage in degrading pleasures with fast men or women.
