Purse
A purse — full of money or empty — often touches good cheer and harmony when brimming, disappointment when bare, and rich fortune if filled with gold. The dream may ask what state your reserves are in, and whether the small vessel of your security is generously stocked or hollow, since how much it holds tends to track your luck.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for purse, 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 of your purse being filled with diamonds and new bills, denotes for you associations where ``Good Cheer'' is the watchword, and harmony and tender loves will make earth a beautiful place.

Fontaine, 1862
To dream of finding an empty purse, shadows forth disappointment; if the purse has plenty of money in it, your luck will be excellent—the more money, the better fortune: if it has in it large gold pieces, or large bills, you will become rich either by marriage or inheritance.
