Sulphur

Sulphur — acrid, burning, the smell of brimstone — often touches a warning to use discretion as foul play threatens, with great care over wealth if it burns. The dream may ask where something unsavoury is in the air around your dealings, and whether you can stay watchful, sensing the foul play before it reaches you.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
