Dreaming of Gold

gold, bullion, gold coins · mostly positive, with a few warnings

Gold is a strong omen of success and new friendships, unless you lose it or drop it.

What happens in the dream

  • Handling gold: unusual success in everything you take on
  • Receiving gold: your plans succeed after small difficulties; as coins, your affairs thrive and love is true; as bars, a distant inheritance that's hard to claim
  • Finding a vein of gold: an awkward honour pressed upon you
  • Paying in gold: more friends and more business
  • Finding or picking up gold: your talents put you ahead, and a quarrel is settled in your favour
  • Losing gold: through carelessness you may miss the best chance of your life
  • Dropping gold: watch out for thieves and swindlers
  • Planning to work a gold mine: take care not to trample on other people's rights

How you felt

  • Elation: the dream may reflect an awareness of your own worth
  • Fear of loss: you may be afraid of letting a chance slip by

Ask yourself

  • What precious opportunity is within my reach right now?
  • What really has value for me?
