Halter

Putting a halter on a young horse often touches the mastering of energy — bringing wild force under steady control toward clean management. The dream may ask what untamed thing you're learning to guide, whether your business and affections are coming under your sure direction, and how much patient toil the harnessing still asks.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for halter, 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 that you put a halter on a young horse, shows that you will manage a very prosperous and clean business. Love matters will shape themselves to suit you.

To see other things haltered, denotes that fortune will be withheld from you for a while. You will win it, but with much toil.
