Legerdemain
Legerdemain — sleight of hand, clever trickery — often touches a tight spot where your energy and planning must work hard to extricate you. The dream may ask where you're being asked to think quick and nimble, what predicament demands deft maneuvering, and whether your wit is equal to slipping free of what won't yield to force.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for legerdemain, 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 practising legerdemain, or seeing others doing so, signifies you will be placed in a position where your energy and power of planning will be called into strenuous play to extricate yourself.
