Horn
A horn sounding often touches sudden, carrying news — usually joyful — and the congeniality of voices raised together. The dream may ask what hasty, glad word is making its way to you, whether the note you hear rings whole or comes broken, and what summons or celebration the bright blast is announcing across the distance.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for horn, 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 that you hear the sound of a horn, foretells hasty news of a joyful character.
To see a broken horn, denotes death or accident.
To see children playing with horns, denotes congeniality in the home.
For a woman to dream of blowing a horn, foretells that she is more anxious for marriage than her lover.
Fontaine, 1862
To see horns on the head of another person, danger to the dreamer on your own wealth and importance. To dream you are gored by a horned animal denotes unhappiness. To lovers it usually predicts that they will have difficulty in connection with their desires; if they think of marrying, some obstacle will be placed in the way of their union, though perhaps not prevent it in the end.
