Rooster
A rooster — proud, crowing, dominant — often touches great success and rising prominence shadowed by the conceit it breeds, with altercations if roosters fight. The dream may ask where a fortunate rise is tempting you toward vanity, and whether you can hold your growing standing without letting it puff you up or draw you into rivalry.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for rooster, 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 a rooster, foretells that you will be very successful and rise to prominence, but you will allow yourself to become conceited over your fortunate rise.
To see roosters fighting, foretells altercations and rivals.

Fontaine, 1862
If a girl dreams of hearing a cock crow, it foretells that she will soon have a new lover; if a lover dreams this, it is a sign that he has a formidable rival: if a married man or woman dreams of roosters, it shows that some outsider is enamored of the wife.
