Coat
A coat in dreams often speaks to the identity you present to the world — the self you wear in public, the protection you've chosen or inherited. When it tears, transforms, or belongs to someone else, perhaps the dream asks: whose warmth are you relying on, and what might you be covering?
A live archive of what the world is dreaming tonight: which symbols are rising, the collective mood, and where the dreams are coming from. Free, always.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for coat, 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 wearing another's coat, signifies that you will ask some friend to go security for you. To see your coat torn, denotes the loss of a close friend and dreary business.
To see a new coat, portends for you some literary honor.
To lose your coat, you will have to rebuild your fortune lost through being over-confident in speculations.
