Dreaming of Treasure

treasure, chest, hoard, riches · mixed, sharply divided

Treasure divides the readings: unexpected generosity in one, betrayal and loss in another.

What happens in the dream

  • You find treasure: unexpected generosity will help your fortunes
  • You lose treasure: bad luck in business and fickle friends
  • You dig treasure out of the ground: beware a close friend or an unfaithful partner
  • You can't carry it away: a heavy loss, even a bad encounter on the road

How you felt

  • Hope: discovering a hidden resource, perhaps within yourself
  • Wariness: fear that what glitters isn't safe

Ask yourself

  • What hidden treasure might I find in myself?
  • Whom would I trust with what's precious to me?
