Horseshoe

A horseshoe often touches luck and advance — business rising, fortunate engagements, profit from an unknown source. The dream may ask where good fortune is turning your way beyond your expectations, what lucky find might lift your affairs, and whether you can recognise the unearned advantage hanging within reach, ready to be picked up.

Miller 1901
