Kidneys
Kidneys — the body's deep filters — often touch a threat to health or marriage, the strain of what should be cleansed and isn't. The dream may ask where something needs filtering out of your life, whether an intrigue or hidden trouble is festering, and how the deep workings of your wellbeing signal a strain surfacing into your affairs.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for kidneys, 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 about your kidneys, foretells you are threatened with a serious illness, or there will be trouble in marriage relations for you.
If they act too freely, you will be a party to some racy intrigue. If they refuse to perform their work, there will be a sensation, and to your detriment. If you eat kidney-stew, some officious person will cause you disgust in some secret lover affair.
