Dreaming of a Ledger
ledger, account book, bookkeeping · mostly negative, unless the accounts are good
A ledger is about stewardship: kept carefully it protects your interests, neglected it brings losses and worry.
What happens in the dream
- If you are single: a marriage proposal from a steady, established person
- Putting the ledger in a safe: you will protect your rights in hard times
- Misplacing the ledger: your interests slip through neglect
- Someone else keeps your books: you will lose money mixing pleasure and business
- The ledger is full of bad accounts: poor management and losses; if the accounts are good, business will improve
- Keeping a ledger: perplexities and disappointments to deal with
- Making wrong entries: small disputes and a slight loss
- The ledger burns: you will suffer from friends' carelessness
How you felt
- Unease: the dream may reflect worries about money or organization
- A need for control: it may express a wish to put your affairs in order
Ask yourself
- Are there accounts, literal or not, I've been avoiding?
- What am I neglecting at the moment?
