Heir

Falling heir to property often touches inheritance shadowed by risk — the danger of losing what you already hold, and the responsibilities that come with new gain. The dream may ask what's coming to you and what it might cost, whether an unexpected windfall steadies or unsettles you, and what duties arrive attached to the legacy.

Miller 1901
