Ram

A ram — powerful, butting, headstrong — often touches misfortune if it pursues you, but powerful friends working for your good if it grazes quietly. The dream may ask where a forceful energy is charging at you or resting nearby, and whether the strong presence is a threat lowering its horns or an ally putting its strength behind you.

What the old dream-books say

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for ram, 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 that a ram pursues you, foretells that some misfortune threatens you.

To see one quietly grazing denotes that you will have powerful friends, who will use their best efforts for your good.

[183] See Sheep and Lamb.

Fontaine, 1862

The Golden Wheel Dream-book

To dream that a ram runs at you for butting purposes, shadows forth to a young man that his society will be coveted by the girls, and that he will be fortunate in love matters generally: if a girl dreams this, she will probably have her choice of lovers, as all the young fellows around there will fall in love with her.
