Chambermaid

The chambermaid in a dream marks bad fortune and decided changes coming. The dream tends to touch the figure who tends our most private rooms, and the upheaval she signals, and to ask what shift is approaching in the intimate quarters of our life, and whether we are braced for the change it brings.

Miller 1901

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
