Stilts
Stilts — walking high but precariously — often touch a fortune in insecure condition, with embarrassment if they break beneath you through trusting others. The dream may ask where you're propped higher than your footing safely allows, and whether the elevated but wobbly position you've taken, leaning on others, is one step from a fall.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for stilts, 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 walking on stilts, denotes that your fortune is in an insecure condition.
To fall from them, or feel them break beneath you, you will be precipitated into embarrassments by trusting your affairs to the care of others.
