Dream Interpretation | To dream that you are disinherited, warns you to look well to your business and social standing. For a young man to dream of losing his inheritance by disobedience, warns him that he will find favor in the eyes of his parents by contracting a suitable marriage. For a woman, this dream is a warning to be careful of her conduct, lest she meet with unfavorable fortune. Source: Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted .... |
