Beetles
Beetles
Beetles on the person in a dream mark poverty and small ills in the old books, though to kill them turns the omen favourable. The dream tends to touch minor troubles crawling where we do not want them, and to ask what small, unwelcome things are settling on us, and whether we mean to brush them off.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for beetles, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.

To dream of seeing them on your person, denotes poverty and small ills. To kill them is good.
