Winter

Winter — the cold, fallow, hard season — often touches ill-health and dreary prospects, with efforts that won't yield satisfactory results. The dream may ask where a barren, frozen stretch has settled over your fortunes, and whether you can endure the lean cold, since the season asks patience rather than fruitless striving.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say
