Dreaming of a Spade
spade · negative
A garden spade foretells irksome work; spades in cards, costly folly.
What happens in the dream
- For a gambler, spades are trumps: bad deals will eat into your winnings
- You see spades in a deck of cards: follies that bring grief and bad luck
- You see a spade: a job to finish that will annoy you to oversee
How you felt
- Drudgery: the dream may reflect a task you've been dragging out
- Temptation: it can warn against taking a gamble
Ask yourself
- What task am I dragging out?
- Am I tempted to bet big?
