Lime-kiln
A lime-kiln — the fierce oven that burns stone to lime — often touches an immediate stretch holding no favour for ventures in love or business. The dream may ask where the timing is wrong for a new undertaking, what you'd be wiser to hold back than fire into now, and whether the heat of the present moment is one to wait out before acting.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for lime-kiln, 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 a lime-kiln, foretells the immediate future holds no favor for speculations in love or business
Fontaine, 1862
To dream of burning lime in a kiln, or of seeing a kiln in full blast, is a sign of health and abundant crops; but to see a dilapidated and empty limekiln in your dream is the reverse of this, as far as the crops are concerned.
