Partner

A business partner letting a load of crockery fall and mix often touches loss through a partner's careless dealings, partly recovered if you reprimand them. The dream may ask where someone you're yoked to is mishandling what you share, and whether speaking up might claw back some of what their carelessness costs.

What the old dream-books say

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for partner, 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 seeing your business partner with a basket of crockery on his back, and, letting it fall, gets it mixed with other crockery, denotes your business will sustain a loss through the indiscriminate dealings of your partner. If you reprimand him for it, you will, to some extent, recover the loss.

Fontaine, 1862

The Golden Wheel Dream-book

(See Ball.) To dream that your partner in a dance slights or snubs you, is a sign that some one is enamored of you: this applies to either sex: if you dream of a particularly agreeable and attractive partner, it shows that you will quarrel with somebody of the opposite sex: for a man in business to dream of taking a partner, foretells that he will be robbed.
