Mill-dam
A mill-dam — water gathered to power the wheel — often touches enterprises that prosper if the water runs clear, or losses if it's muddy or the dam runs dry. The dream may ask what reserve of energy you're channelling toward your aims, and whether the source feeding your effort is clean and full or clouded and shrinking.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for mill-dam, 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 that you see clear water pouring over a mill-dam, foretells pleasant enterprises, either of a business or social nature. If the water is muddy or impure, you will meet with losses, and troubles will arise where pleasure was anticipated.
If the dam is dry, your business will assume shrunken proportions.
