Potter's Field
A potter's field — the burial ground of the unclaimed poor — often touches poverty and misery, with love given up for mercenary gain. The dream may ask where you fear ending unmourned and destitute, and whether you're tempted to trade affection for money in a way that would lay your truest bonds to rest in an unmarked, forgotten grave.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for potter's field, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To see a potter's field in your dreams, denotes you will have poverty and misery to distress you. For a young woman to walk through a potter's field with her lover, she will give up the one she loves in the hope of mercenary gain.
