Lizard
Lizards in dreams often signal unease about something unseen—a worry creeping at the edges, perhaps a person or situation you don't fully trust. The dream may be asking what feels cold-blooded or hidden in your waking life, rather than naming an enemy outright.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for lizard, 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 lizards, foretells attacks upon you by enemies.
If you kill a lizard, you will regain your lost reputation or fortune; but if it should escape, you will meet vexations and crosses in love and business.
For a woman to dream that a lizard crawls up her skirt, or scratches her, she will have much misfortune and sorrow. Her husband will be a victim to invalidism and she will be left a widow, and little sustenance will be eked out by her own labors.
Fontaine, 1862
To dream of lizards, is a sign you have secret enemies who will injure you if they can. If a girl dreams this, it shows that some one will question her virtue.
