Plow

A plow — breaking ground for what will be sown — often touches unusual success and affairs reaching a pleasing culmination. The dream may ask where patient, effortful preparation is turning the soil of your fortunes, and whether the deep furrows you're cutting now are readying a rapid increase in property and joys to come.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say

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

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
