Country

A beautiful, fertile country — rich fields and clear running water — often touches a sense of abundance and good times at their peak. The dream may ask where your life feels lush and well-provisioned, or, if the land lies dry and bare, where you fear famine and hardship spreading across what should sustain you.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say

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

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901

Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted

To dream of being in a beautiful and fertile country, where abound rich fields of grain and running streams of pure water, denotes the very acme of good times is at hand. Wealth will pile in upon you, and you will be able to reign in state in any country. If the country be dry and bare, you will see and hear of troublous times. Famine and sickness will be in the land.
