Ferry
A ferry — the crossing that depends on the water beneath — often touches a passage whose success rests on conditions outside you: swift and muddy, you're baffled; calm and clear, carried through. The dream may ask what transition you're waiting to make, how troubled or settled your circumstances are, and whether the way across is open.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for ferry, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To wait at a ferry for a boat and see the waters swift and muddy, you will be baffled in your highest wishes and designs by unforeseen circumstances.
To cross a ferry while the water is calm and clear, you will be very lucky in carrying out your plans, and fortune will crown you.
