Swearing
Swearing — cursing in anger — often touches unpleasant obstructions in business and cause to suspect a sweetheart's faithfulness, with discord at home from disloyal conduct. The dream may ask where heated outbursts are blocking your affairs, and whether the anger spilling out warns that your own conduct is sowing the discord you fear.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for swearing, 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 swearing, denotes some unpleasant obstructions in business. A lover will have cause to suspect the faithfulness of his affianced after this dream.
To dream that you are swearing before your family, denotes that disagreements will soon be brought about by your unloyal conduct.
Fontaine, 1862
To dream that you hear violent altercations and profane swearing, is a sign that you will lose caste, and go down in the world: if a man dreams that in his anger he curses and swears, it foretells that he will come to poverty.
