Dream Interpretation | To dream of being vaccinated, foretells that your susceptibility to female charms will be played upon to your sorrow. To dream that others are vaccinated, shows you will fail to find contentment where it is sought, and your affairs will suffer decline in consequence. For a young woman to be vaccinated on her leg, foreshadows her undoing through treachery. Source: Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted .... |
