Wind

Wind often carries what the dreamer cannot yet name—a force that moves through the psyche, stirring restlessness or sweeping clarity into stagnant corners. Whether it pushes you forward or holds you back may matter less than noticing what you're resisting, and what you're finally ready to release.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for wind, 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 the wind blowing softly and sadly upon you, signifies that great fortune will come to you through bereavement.

If you hear the wind soughing, denotes that you will wander in estrangement from one whose life is empty without you.

To walk briskly against a brisk wind, foretells that you will courageously resist temptation and pursue fortune with a determination not easily put aside. For the wind to blow you along against your wishes, portends failure in business undertakings and disappointments in love. If the wind blows you in the direction you wish to go you will find unexpected and helpful allies, or that you have natural advantages over a rival or competitor.
