Lead
Lead — heavy, dull, base metal — often touches poor success and a gloomy cast over your engagements. The dream may ask where your efforts feel leaden and unrewarding, whose suspicion or deceit is weighing on you, and how the dense, unlustrous metal mirrors a stretch where ambition sinks rather than rises.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for lead, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901

A lead mine, indicates that your friends will look with suspicion on your money making. Your sweetheart will surprise you with her deceit and ill temper.
To dream of lead ore, foretells distress and accidents. Business will assume a gloomy cast.
To hunt for lead, denotes discontentment, and a constant changing of employment.
