Moss

Moss — soft growth that spreads in shade and damp — often touches dependent positions, unless it grows in rich soil, where honours follow. The dream may ask where you find yourself in a lowly, reliant place, and whether the ground you're rooted in is poor enough to keep you small or rich enough to lift you.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for moss, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901

Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted

To dream of moss, denotes that you will fill dependent positions, unless the moss grows in rich soil, when you will be favored with honors.
