Drouth

Drought — the cracked, withholding land — often touches a wide, bleak hardship: discord, scarcity, things going awry across the board. The dream may ask where life feels parched and unyielding, what quarrels or losses are spreading through your circumstances, and how you endure a dry season that seems to touch everything at once.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for drouth, 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

This is-an evil dream, denoting warring disputes between nations, and much bloodshed therefrom. Shipwrecks and land disasters will occur, and families will quarrel and separate; sickness will work damage also. Your affairs will go awry, as well.
