Drunk
Drunkenness often touches the loss of footing and clear judgment — heavy liquor toward disgrace, wine toward heady, exalted feeling. The dream may ask where you've surrendered your sober control, whether the intoxication drags you down or lifts you into rare experience, and what your thoughts might need to shift toward healthier channels.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for drunk, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
This is an unfavorable dream if you are drunk on heavy liquors, indicating profligacy and loss of employment. You will be disgraced by stooping to forgery or theft.
If drunk on wine, you will be fortunate in trade and love-making, and will scale exalted heights in literary pursuits. This dream is always the bearer of aesthetic experiences.
To see others in a drunken condition, foretells for you, and probably others, unhappy states.
Drunkenness in all forms is unreliable as a good dream. All classes are warned by this dream to shift their thoughts into more healthful channels.
