Girls

A bright-looking girl often touches pleasing prospects and domestic warmth, while a pale, thin one shades toward worry and frailty. The dream may ask what hopeful or fragile presence is appearing to you, where freshness and joy enter your home, and how the figure before you mirrors the health of what you're tending.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say

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

To dream of seeing a well, bright-looking girl, foretells pleasing prospects and domestic joys. If she is thin and pale, it denotes that you will have an invalid in your family, and much unpleasantness.

For a man to dream that he is a girl, he will be weak-minded, or become an actor and play female parts.
