Imitation
Imitation often touches deception by counterfeit — people working to fool you, or someone mimicking what's yours. The dream may ask where you sense a false copy being passed off as real, whether you're being imposed upon and made to suffer for another's faults, and how to tell the genuine article from the convincing imitation around you.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for imitation, 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 of imitations, means that persons are working to deceive you. For a young woman to dream some one is imitating her lover or herself, foretells she will be imposed upon, and will suffer for the faults of others.
