Waltz
A waltz — gliding in turning embrace — often touches pleasant relations with a cheerful person, with much admiration but no proposal for a young woman who waltzes with her lover. The dream may ask where you're swept up in a graceful whirl, and whether the turning motion leads toward lasting union or only the pleasure of the dance.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for waltz, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To see the waltz danced, foretells that you will have pleasant relations with a cheerful and adventuresome person.
For a young woman to waltz with her lover, denotes that she will be the object of much admiration, but none will seek her for a wife. If she sees her lover waltzing with a rival, she will overcome obstacles to her desires with strategy. If she waltzes with a woman, she will be loved for her virtues and winning ways. If she sees persons whirling in the waltz as if intoxicated, she will be engulfed so deeply in desire and pleasure that it will be a miracle if she resists the impassioned advances of her lover and male acquaintances.
