Bellows
(Air blower; Blacksmith) If a bellows is made from wood in one’s dream,
it means loss of dignity, demotion or loss of property. Owning a bellows in a
dream means acquiring vast control and sovereignty if one qualifies for that.
Otherwise, a bellows in a dream means benefits and blessings. Seeing a bellows
blowing fire in a dream means completing a project, satisfying a need, reaching
one’s goal or earning money. If the bellows are not in use, or if they are not
blowing air into the fire, then they signify distress, adversities and trouble.
Seeing bellows that are used by a goldsmith or a silversmith in a dream means
sincerity in one’s faith, certitude and devoting one’s life to worshipping God
Almighty. Seeing bellows that are used in blowing glass in a dream signify deceit
and cunningness. Bellows in a dream also represent a woman who conceive

Naked
(Assertion; Nude; Stripped; Unclothed; Undressed) Nakedness in a dream
represents inward purity and clarity, or it could mean committing an act that
will culminate in regret. Undressing oneself in a dream means facing a reticent,
hidden, unexpected and notorious enemy who will publicly assert his enmity.
If one sees himself alone and naked in a dream, it means that one of his enemies,
knowing his weaknesses, is demanding capitulation from him, or threatening
him, or blackmailing him. If one sees himself naked during an assembly or a
party in a dream, it means that he willbe exposed or defamed. If one sees himself
naked in the midst of people, though he does not feel shy and is not aware of it
in the dream, it means that he engages in a project then exaggerates the degree
of his involvement, suffer hardships and gains nothing out of his adventure. If
one sees himself naked in front of people, and if he finds himself embarrassed,
or tries desperately to find a cover but to no avail, it signifies loss of property
and wealth. If he stands out naked and people keep looking at his private parts
in the dream, it means a scandal or suffering from defamation. Nakedness in
a dream also could mean divorce, or death of one’s wife. Taking off one’s clothing
in a dream means loss of position and prestige, loss of work, demotion, or
recovering from an illness. If a sick person sees himself changing his soiled
garment in a dream, it means that he will recover from his illness, or escape from
an adversity or an accident, or that he will be declared innocent from a false
accusation. Nakedness in a dream also means death. As for religious and pious
people, nakedness in a dream means renouncing the world, or increase in their
devotion. If a farmer sees an unknown woman naked in a dream, it means that
the time has come to turn the earth over and to prepare it for a new crop. If their
is a true witness or an acceptable reference, then one’s nakedness in the dream
means attending the pilgrimage in Mecca. Nakedness in a dream also means
putting on a new garment. The nakedness of a woman in a dream means
separation from her husband, or it could mean her her divorce. (Also see Na¬

Well
In a dream, a well inside one’s house means prosperity, riches, a wife,
business, a teacher, poverty, deception, fulfillment of one’s needs, travels, goals,
stinginess, generosity, or it could mean a servant. The structural condition of
each well in a dream has its own interpretation. A well in a dream also represent
a woman who has a loud laughter, or it could represent a pleasant and an in¬
spiring woman. If a woman sees a well in a dream, it means meeting a man of
good character. If one sees himself looking into a well in a dream, it means that
he is thinking about a particular woman for marriage. A well in a dream is also
interpreted to represent knowledge, marriage, a big man, prison, ties, or
deception. If one digs a well and finds water in it in his dream, it means that
he will marry a wealthy woman whom he will deceive. If the water gushes forth,
rises and runs outside of an old well in the dream, it represents crying and grief
in that place. Digging a well and finding water to channel for one’s garden in
a dream means taking an herbal remedy to cure one’s impotence, or to save his
marriage. Falling into a well of muddy waters in a dream means that one may
become subject to the tyranny of an unjust ruler. If the water he falls into is clear
in the dream, it means that he will willingly work to serve a righteous man and
for a nominal wage. Falling into a well in a dream also means demotion, or it
could mean travels. Sitting at the edge of a well in a dream means dealing with
a deceiving person. A collapsed well in a dream represents a dying woman.
Reaching a well which is dug for the general public to draw from its water means
getting relief after suffering from difficulties. Finding a well adjacent to a
barmaid in a dream means finding a spiritual teacher, or joining a fellowship
and a school for the seekers. If one sees the well of Zamzam quenching the thirst
of people in a particular neighborhood other than Mecca in a dream, it means
that a gnostic will come to that town, and whose knowledge and wisdom will
greatly benefit its people. It also may denote the bounty and blessings which are
imparted to that town, or it could denote the victory of its people over their real
enemy. Drinking from such a well in a dream means fulfillment of one’s
intentions and satisfaction of his needs. In a dream, a well also means a prison
or depression. If one is in such a state, it means that his adversities will
dissipate, and that he will reestablish himself in the circles of people in
authority. If the person in the dream is a seer who predicts events, then he may
be involved in the circles of governors, particularly to interpret their dreams.
It is possible that he also might receive emissaries of notable people who will
bring him what pleases him. It also could mean a fight in one’s family involving
jealousy, envy, betrayal, though at the end one will triumph over them. Falling
into a well in a dream also means being indicted in an alleged crime from which
one is clearly innocent. A well in a dream is also interpreted as levying taxes,
or it could mean circumcision. Digging a well in a dream also represents a crafty
and an artful deceiver.
