Rescue
Being rescued often touches being threatened with misfortune but escaping with slight loss, while rescuing others brings esteem for your good deeds. The dream may ask where danger is closing on you and help may yet arrive, and whether you're the one pulled to safety or the one whose timely aid to another raises you in everyone's regard.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for rescue, 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 being rescued from any danger, denotes that you will be threatened with misfortune, and will escape with a slight loss.
To rescue others, foretells that you will be esteemed for your good deeds.
Fontaine, 1862
If you dream of rescuing anyone from peril, it is a sign you will rise in the world, either by means of increased wealth, or new honors: to dream that you are rescued from drowning or from any other mode of death, shows that you will go into some successful business speculation with a partner.
