Dew
Dew often touches a tender doubleness — falling damply, it hints at fever and disease; sparkling in sunlight, it promises honour and wealth. The dream may ask whether the moisture settling on you feels like blight or blessing, and whether the fresh, glittering grace of morning is bringing illness or unexpected abundance.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for dew, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To feel the dew falling on you in your dreams, portends that you will be attacked by fever or some malignant disease; but to see the dew sparkling through the grass in the sunlight, great honors and wealth are about to be heaped upon you. If you are single, a wealthy marriage will soon be your portion.
