Silkworm
A silkworm — spinning treasure from its own body — often touches very profitable work that places you prominently, with reverses if they're dead or cutting their cocoons. The dream may ask where patient, transformative labour is producing something valuable from within you, and whether the slow spinning is on track to elevate you.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for silkworm, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
If you dream of a silkworm, you will engage in a very profitable work, which will also place you in a prominent position.
To see them dead, or cutting through their cocoons, is a sign of reverses and trying times.
