Oats
Oats — the grain of patient husbandry — often touch a variety of good things, with advancement and domestic harmony, though decayed oats displace bright hopes with sorrow. The dream may ask where steady cultivation is ripening toward reward, and whether the store you've grown is sound and golden or quietly spoiling where you can't see it.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for oats, 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 oats hold the vision, portends a variety of good things. The farmer will especially advance in fortune and domestic harmony.
To see decayed oats, foretells that sorrow will displace bright hopes.
Fontaine, 1862
To dream of this grain foretells a journey by land: if an engaged young girl dreams of oats, it denotes that her wedding tour is not far off.
