Whistle
A whistle — a sharp, carrying signal — often touches being shocked by sad news that upsets your plans for pleasure, though whistling yourself means a merry occasion. The dream may ask where a sudden, piercing summons is cutting through, and whether the note reaching you brings grievous tidings or the bright sound of your own gladness.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for whistle, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To hear a whistle in your dream, denotes that you will be shocked by some sad intelligence, which will change your plans laid for innocent pleasure.
To dream that you are whistling, foretells a merry occasion in which you expect to figure largely. This dream for a young woman indicates indiscreet conduct and failure to obtain wishes is foretold.
