Twins

Twins — a doubled birth — often touch security in business and loving contentment at home, with good news and honour, though sickly ones bring grief. The dream may ask where something has come to you in matched, reinforcing pairs, and whether the doubling signals settled contentment or, if frail, a coming disappointment.

What the old dream-books say

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for twins, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901

Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted

To dream of seeing twins, foretells security in business, and faithful and loving contentment in the home.

If they are sickly, it signifies that you will have disappointment and grief.

Fontaine, 1862

The Golden Wheel Dream-book

To dream of having twins, brings good news, and is a sign of honor or riches; it is also a good omen in love matters if a man dreams it, but if a girl has this dream she must look out for the boys.
