Paradise
Paradise in dreams often reflects a longing for wholeness—a place where struggle ceases and belonging feels complete. Yet the dream may also ask: what part of yourself still feels exiled, and what would it mean to stop searching for arrival elsewhere?

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for paradise, 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 are in Paradise, means loyal friends, who are willing to aid you. This dream holds out bright hopes to sailors or those about to make a long voyage. To mothers, this means fair and obedient children. If you are sick and unfortunate, you will have a speedy recovery and your fortune will ripen. To lovers, it is the promise of wealth and faithfulness.
To dream that you start to Paradise and find yourself bewildered and lost, you will undertake enterprises which look exceedingly feasible and full of fortunate returns, but which will prove disappointing and vexatious.
