Chalice
A chalice in a dream marks pleasure gained to the sorrow of others, while to break one marks one's own failure. The dream tends to touch the sacred cup of shared or contested joy, and to ask whether our gain is coming at someone else's cost, and how carefully we are holding the vessel passed into our hands.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for chalice, 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 of a chalice, denotes pleasure will be gained by you to the sorrow of others. To break one foretells your failure to obtain power over some friend.
