Mice
Mice — small, scurrying, gnawing in the walls — often touch domestic troubles and the insincerity of friends. The dream may ask what little hidden problems are nibbling at your peace, and whether secret deceptions are being practised on you behind a quiet, unremarkable surface.
A live archive of what the world is dreaming tonight: which symbols are rising, the collective mood, and where the dreams are coming from. Free, always.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for mice, 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 mice, foretells domestic troubles and the insincerity of friends. Business affairs will assume a discouraging tone.
To kill mice, denotes that you will conquer your enemies.
To let them escape you, is significant of doubtful struggles.
For a young woman to dream of mice, warns her of secret enemies, and that deception is being practised upon her. If she should see a mouse in her clothing, it is a sign of scandal in which she will figure.
