Engagement
An engagement — a binding promise of business or of the heart — often touches commitment and the worries that trail it. The dream may ask what you're pledging yourself to, whether the bond ahead feels dull or dazzling, and what a hasty making or breaking of such a promise might set in motion that you can't easily undo.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for engagement, 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 a business engagement, denotes dulness and worries in trade.
For young people to dream that they are engaged, denotes that they will not be much admired.
To dream of breaking an engagement, denotes a hasty, and an unwise action in some important matter or disappointments may follow.
