Wife
A wife appearing in dreams often marks the state of intimacy itself — not just the person, but the unspoken agreements, the daily frictions, the tender or troubled climate between two people. When she seems unusually kind or distant, the dream may be asking: what remains unsaid in waking life?
A live archive of what the world is dreaming tonight: which symbols are rising, the collective mood, and where the dreams are coming from. Free, always.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for wife, 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 your wife, denotes unsettled affairs and discord in the home.
To dream that your wife is unusually affable, denotes that you will receive profit from some important venture in trade.
For a wife to dream her husband whips her, foretells unlucky influences will cause harsh criticism in the home and a general turmoil will ensue.
