strength or weakness reflects one’s state of mind or the condition of his health.
Raising one’s voice in a dream means unjustly presiding over a crowd of people.
Hearing a human voice in a dream means chairing an important responsibility.
If the human voice emanates from an animal in the dream, it denotes great
benefits and particularly if the animal speaks pleasing and soothing words or

shaikh or a teacher in a dream, it means that he will commit a sin. A weak voice
in a dream represents a man. Intentionally lowering one’s voice in a dream
means being indebted to someone, or it could mean humility. If a man of
authority or a policeman lower his voice in a dream, it means that he maybe
dismissed from his job, or he maybe reprimanded or disciplined for his misconduct.
The sound produced by the ringing of coins in a dream represents temptation,
allurement, or a fight between stockbrokers or money exchangers. The clank of

Charity
(Detergent; Discards; Filth; Loan; Tithe) Charity in a dream means
repelling calamities, recovering from illness, profits or truthfulness. This is also
true when it comes to earning one’s money lawfully, but if one gives a dead
animal or alcohol or a stolen or mismanaged money in charity, then his charity
is not acceptable and it means that he will pursue evil and indulge in sin. If a
farmer who is having a bad harvest sees himself giving some of what he plants
in charity in a dream, it means that his crop will increase and his produce will
be blessed. If one donates his charities to a rich person in a dream, it means that
he may suffer from tight financial circumstances, or that he may come to be in
need of such a person. If one gives a charitable donation to a prostitute in a
dream, it means that she will repent of her sin. If he gives a charity to a thief
in a dream, it means that the thief will cease his profession. Charity in a dream
also could mean suppressing the envy or spite of one’s rivals or subdue the
jealousy of one’s enemy, averting his dislikes, or suppressing evil in general. If
an angry person sees himself secretly distributing charity in a dream, it means
that God Almighty has forgiven him his sin of anger. Giving charity in secret
in one’s dream also could mean seeking the friendship of people in authority, or
to join the circles of people of knowledge. If a man of knowledge is asked to give
money in charity, and if he complies in his dream, it means that he will expound
his knowledge to others. If he is a merchant, it means that he will benefit others
with his business or teache them his trade. If he is a craftsman, he will teach
people his craft. If one who is under pressures, or if one is scared of something
sees himself feeding a beggar who is undergoing his own trials in a dream, it
means that one’s fears and stress will be dispelled. Charity in a dream also
denotes celebrating God’s praises, devotion, visiting the graveyards and doing
good. To spend money on God’s path in a dream means that one will surely
receive money in wakefulness. (Also see Alms tax; Endowment; Good deeds;
Loan)

Fruit
(Dried fruits; Fresh fruits) In a dream, a sweet tasting fruit represents
blessings, knowledge or money. Even a sour tasting fruit means the same when
it suits the taste of the person eating it in his dream. When a sour tasting fruit
does not agree with the person’s taste in the dream, then it means unlawful
earnings or aggravation of his illness. Eating or drinking any by-product that
is made of fruit in a dream means debts or facing challenges in a foreign land.
Seeing one’s most preferred fruit in a dream represent profits earned from one’s
own sweat and such profits will equal the amount of efforts exerted to earn them.
A large size fruit in a dream represents earnings that are not yet free from due
alms. A fruit without seeds or hull in a dream represents success and lawful
earnings. Eating fruits out of season in a dream means prosperity and comfort.
A fruit that grows or which is plucked in cluster or as bunch in a dream means
love and unity. Imported fruits in a dream represent their country of origin.
Fruits in a dream also represent one’s wife, children, business agreements,
exchanging knowledge, good deeds, family reunion, weddings, recovering from
sickness or recovering lost money. Grapes in a dream represent wine, and water
melon represents the alcoholic beverage which is fermented from its juices. To
pick up a fruit that fell from a tree in a dream means leading a fight against a
righteous person. If one sees a tree that bears fruit in warm weather bearing
fruit in the winter in a dream, it means that he will associate with someone
expecting to make a business deal, though their friendship will end in wasting
time and money. To pluck a fruit from a tree other than its own in a dream
represents a good brother in-law, an honest partner, or a profitable partnership.
Wild berries in the mountains or prairies in a dream represent innate arts,
abilities and knowledge given directly from God Almighty and no other teacher
has a claim in it. Figs in a dream represent the best of fruits in a dream. Fresh
fruits in a dream signify money that does not last, while dried fruits represent
savings. Fruits for a poor person in a dream signify prosperity and for a rich
person they signify increase in his wealth. If one is showered with fruits in a
dream, it means that he will become known for his good deeds. (Also see Apricot;
Dried fruit; Fruit salesman)

Flint stone
(Fire stone; Hard; Siliceous rock; Steel) In a dream, a flint stone means
searching for something that could bring profits or hoping for something to
happen, and both will take place. If one sees himself striking a flint stone with
a piece of steel to produce fire for cooking or for light, and if he sees the sparks
coming from them in a dream, it means that he will take advantage of his
friendship with someone in authority who is rock hearted to help him overcome
his poverty and to make his life more manageable. The flint stone in a dream
also represents the rock hearted man, and the steel represents his might. On
the other hand, if one strikes a flint stone with a piece of steel and produces
sparks from them in his dream, it means that he will witness an awesome fight
between two rock hearted and cruel people. Striking a flint stone in a dream also
means marriage of an unwed person. If a woman sees herself striking a flint
stone with a piece of steel, and if she can produce sparks in the dream, it means
that she will beget a son. If a spark starts a fire in the dream, it means that one’s
wife will become pregnant or perhaps it could represent a fight between the
husband and the wife, or a fight between two partners. If the sparks burn one’s
gown in the dream, it means that harm will affect that house and such harm will
bring about losses in money, family honor or bodily injury. If the sparks burn
a notebook in the dream, it means deviation from God’s path.

Companion of the road
(Friendship) If a sick person sees himself walking on the
road along with a friend or travelling with him in a dream, it means that he will
recover from his illness. Accompanying an unknown person on the road in a
dream means suffering losses. Walking in the company of a relative in a dream
has a negative connotation.

Slippers
(Glass slippers; Hoof; Protection; Wooden clogs; Wooden slippers.)
Slippers in a dream represent property, protection, a ring, or preventing evil
happening. Wearing a pair of slippers in a dream also means a journey, or
travelling by sea, or it could mean buying a new vehicle. Tight slippers in a
dream means tightness in one’s livelihood, entanglements, or being pursued by
debt collectors. Removing one’s slippers in a dream means putting an end to
one’s strains. Wearing embroidered slippers coupled with a shawl over one’s
shoulders in a dream means increase in one’s wealth and respect. Wearing them
in the winter is more beneficial then wearing them in the summer where they
mean distress. Seeing one’s slippers on fire or if they fall into a well in a dream
may mean the death of one’s wife. In a dream, a pair of new slippers that are
elongated like a boat means tight circumstances and debts. Slippers in a dream
also represent money which is earned from a foreign country or from an import
and export business. If slippers in a dream are interpreted to mean protection,
then losing them in a dream could mean loss of one’s job. If they are interpreted
to mean religion, then losing them in a dream means relief from difficulties, or
an end to one’s trials. Wearing a pair of simple slippers in a dream means taking
a trip to a distant place, or a marriage to a young virgin. If one’s slippers are
worn-out in a dream, it means that one may marry an unwed woman or a widow.
Losing a slipper in a dream means losing half of one’s assets. Finding a pair of
lost slippers in a dream means occupying oneself with worldly business rather
than serving one’s benefits in the hereafter, or it could mean delinquency in
attending one’s religious duties. Wearing wooden slippers in a dream means
repentance from sin, engaging in an argument, acquiring knowledge, or exposing
a secret one would rather conceal from others. Walking with glass slippers in
a dream means being a hypocrite and a bad companion whose friendship does
not last, and whoever befriends someone wearing glass slippers in a dream will
suffer from adversities and hardships because of him. (Also see Wooden clogs)

Statue
(Idol) A statue in a dream represents falsehood, inventions, make-shift,
fiction, illusion, heedlessness, or a nice looking person who is full of deception.
Worshipping a statue in a dream means lying to God Almighty, or that one
worships what his mind tells him to worship, whether it is a physical object or
a child of one’s imagination. If it is acarved wooden statue in the dream, it means
that he ingratiates himself to rich people, or to an unjust person in authority
through his religion. If the statue is built from wood in the dream, it means that
one seeks religious arguments or disputes. If the statue is made of silver in the
dream, it means that one elicits sexual relationship with his servant, or with
a foreign woman, or perhaps just a friendship. If the statue is made of gold in
the dream, it means that one may commit an abominable action, or a religious
inequity, or seeks profits from someone at the expense of displeasing God
Almighty and consequently, one will suffer financial losses or health problems.
If the statue combines mixed material of bronze, copper, steel, iron, or lead in
the dream, it means that such a person uses his religious garb to make profits,
and that he often forgets about his Lord. A statue in a dream also means travels.
Seeing a golden or a silver statue in a dream also could mean prosperity. Seeing
a bronze statue of a young woman moving around in a dream means a good
harvest, prosperity, or travels. If the statue is bigger than life-size, then it
means a fright. Statues in a dream also represent one’s children, his sexual
drive, or his determination. If one sees himself worshiping a statue in a dream,
it means that he is engaged in falsehood, giving preference to his personal
desires and passions over obeying his Lord’s commands. If one sees himself
worshiping a golden statue in a dream, it means that he will solicit business
from someone who worships God Almighty, though he will also suffer losses
from such an association. It also means that he will lose his investment and it
will show the weakness of his faith. If one sees himself worshiping a statue made
of silver in the dream, it means that he uses his religion to make business out
of it, or to betray others through it, or that he will solicit the help of someone
to do evil, or that he may sexually abuse a young girl who trusts his religious
appearance. If one sees a statue and does not associate it with worship, or if
he does not see anyone worshiping it in his dream, his dream then represents
financial gains. A statue in a dream also means to be enamored with a woman
or a boy. Statues in a dream also could mean deafness, idiotic behavior,
dumbness, attachment to anything in this world, making an idol out of it, such
as one’s love and attachment to his position, status, business, wife, beloved,
house, or child, etcetera. If one owns a statue in a dream, it means that he may
marry a deaf, or a dumb, or a non-intelligent woman, or that he may beget a child
who will grow up having one or more of these defects. In whatever condition one
sees the statue in his dream, it will reflect on any of the above. A statue in a
dream also represents a generation. If the statue is missing something in the
dream, such defect will definitely manifest in one’s society. Seeing a statue in
a dream also could reflect one’s strength and determination. If one breaks a
statue, or lames it, or damages it in a dream, it means that he will vanquish his
enemy and earn rank and fame. If the statue in the dream portrays a particular
woman, or if it is interpreted to represent a specific woman, then she will be
quiet, intelligent and serene, or it could mean that she is stupid and has pride.

Kiss
(Love; Passion; Rose; Tenderness) A kiss in a dream means satisfying one’s
need, want or desire, or it could mean subordinating one’s enemy. Kissing a man
or embracing him lustfully in a dream means getting hold of what one intends
to acquire from him. If it is a lustful kiss, then it means accomplishing one’s
pursuit of benefits, knowledge, or guidance. If it is an amicable kiss, it means
that the one who received the kiss will receive benefits from the one who kissed

through him. Kissing a child in a dream means love, care and tenderness toward
that child. Kissing a servant in a dream means soliciting the friendship of her
master or employer. Kissing a married woman in a dream means seeking

the same interpretation applies if a leader or a boss kisses someone in a dream.
Kissing one’s father in a dream also means benefiting from one another. Kissing

God’s right Hand in a dream means attending a pilgrimage to Mecca and kissing
the black stone. Kissing God Almighty in a dream means kissing the holy

deceased person in a dream means benefiting from his knowledge or inheriting

receive unanticipated benefits. Lustfully kissing a deceased person in a dream
means satisfying one’s needs, lust, or completing a project. If a sick person sees
himself kissing a deceased person in a dream, it means his own death. Finally,
if a healthy person kisses a deceased person in a dream, it means that his words
are not true. (Also see Rose)

Eve
(Mother of humankind, may God’s peace be with her.) In a dream, Eve
represents prosperity, blessings, a good harvest, a good yield, progeny, profits
from a business in textile, farming, smithcraft or similar industries. Seeing
Adam and Eve in a dream means being demoted from a station and a place of
honor to a lower rank to be raised again after repenting from one’s sin. Seeing
Eve in a dream also indicates pitfalls, sins, being subject to jealousy and
malicious fraud, or trouble with one’s neighbors. Seeing Adam and Eve in a
dream also means hardships caused by one’s wife or children, consent for sexual
intercourse, repentance or regret for one’s past. If a woman sees Eve in her
dream, it means that she will create hardships for her husband because of her
association with someone who is unsuitable for her friendship. It also means
that a major adversity will befall her, since Eve was the first to experience
female menstrual period and the pain of childbirth. It may also mean suffering
from the burden of pregnancy, labor and the pangs of giving birth. Seeing Eve
in a dream also could mean givingbirth to both righteous as well as evil children.
If the woman in the dream is separated from her husband, it may mean
re turning to her conjugal life or earning lawful income for her own needs. It also
could mean that someone from her progeny may commit murder or die as a
martyr. If a man sees Eve in a dream, it means that he may be deceived by a
woman or that he hearkens exclusively to the advice of his wife, or if he follows
a woman’s advice, it means that he will err and lose his leadership. If one sees
Eve with her beautiful countenance in a dream, then she represents his mother,
for Eve is the mother of humankind. Should he then be under the pangs of
adversities, it means that he will be saved.

lead many people into temptation. The planet Venus in a dream also could mean
allegations, playfulness, complaisance, jokes, images, idolatry, jewelry, nudity,
pictures of beautiful women, or it could mean beautiful clothing. Seeing the
planet Venus in a dream also means allegations, accusations, or that one may
pursue any of the aforementioned elements, or he may establish a friendship

planet Venus mixing with the moon, or if its position is lower than the moon,
or if it is burning in the dream, then Venus represents one’s daughter, or it could

Mangy
(Skin disease of domestic animals; A bacterial disease) In a dream, mangy
represents pestilence or a plague. If one sees himself struck by such a disease
causing him to itch though no puss or malignant festering runs from his sores
in the dream, it means that his troubles and adversities are caused by his own
progeny or relatives. If one’s body is afflicted with mangy in a dream, it means
that his troubles will come from his friends or from his working environment.
If it strikes at his right hand or his cheek in a dream, then his adversities will
come from his clan. If it strikes at his left hand, then his troubles will come from
his business partner or brother. If his illness forms puss in the dream, it means
hard earned money that will also cause headache. Such a disease means money
for a poor person and it could mean leadership for a rich person. Following this
trail of thinking, mangy or any skin disease in a dream signify less harm
compared to other diseases. If an employees experiences such skin disorder in
a dream, it means that he does not qualify to work in that company. If it is one’s
son in the dream, it means that he will disobey his father concerning an
undesired friendship. If it is one’s wife in the dream, it means that she is engaged
in something awful that will bring shame to the entire family.

and capture him. If one sees himself raising a wolfs cub in a dream, it means
that he will raise an abandoned child of a thief who upon growing up will bring
that family much pain, suffering, divisiveness and loss of property. Seeing a wolf
in a dream also could represent false allegations one may fabricate to assault
an innocent person. If one sees a wolf turning into a steer in the dream, it means
that a boy who is used to stealing will repent for his sin, turn to honesty,
trustworthiness and grow to become a good and a generous person. Seeing a wolf
in a dream also means receiving praises from one’s superior at work, or it could
represent profits from one’s job. If a wolf chases someone in a dream, it means
that the person will see happiness, or it could mean his martyrdom. A wolf in
a dream also represents the days of the year, or it could mean the four seasons.
If one turns into a gentle lamblike wolf in a dream, it means that he is a thief
who will repent for his sin. If one turns into a wolf in a dream, it means that he

righteous califs) Seeing him in a dream means celebrating knowledge, being a
godly person, friendship and love for others, lowering one’s wings before God

Mountain
A mountain in a dream represents a great and a noble man who
possesses a strong and a commanding voice, who commands good administration
of his affairs and an excellent leadership. It also can be interpreted as a son, a
difficult and austere woman, or a businessman. If the mountain is rounded or
flat in the dream, it means difficulties or distress. A mountain in a dream also
could mean achieving one’s goal, a journey, or fulfilling a promise. If the
mountain is standing distinct from other mountains in the dream, the above
meanings become stronger. If the mountain has pasture and stores a source of
water, and if it is used as a permanent guarding post, then it represents a pious
ruler. However, if it stores no water, and if no pasture grows therein in the
dream, it represents a tyrant and a ruler who is an atheist, for in that case, it
is dead and does not glorify God Almighty, nor can people benefit from it. In a
dream, a mountain that stands high is alive, but a crumbling mountain which
has turned into a pile of rocks is dead. If a person sees himself climbing an erect
mountain, eating from its plants and drinking from its water, and if he qualifies
to govern, it means that he will be appointed to a governing post under the
auspices of a stringent ruler, though his subjects do receive benefits from his
government. The size of benefits the governor will acquire is equal to the
quantity of food and the measure of water he drinks from it in his dream. If the
person is a merchant or a business man, a mountain in his dream represents
profits and earning a good reputation. If climbing the mountain is easy, then
there are no benefits in that climbing in the dream, for there are no benefits
without hardships. If at the end of his climbing one thanks God Almighty for
what he has reached in the dream, it means that he will become a just ruler.
If he calls to prayers on the top of a mountain or performs his prayers thereat
in the dream, it means that he will be appointed to govern. If one sees himself
descending a mountain in a dream, it means loss of rank, business losses, or
regret. If one is accompanied with his king and soldiers in a dream, it means
that he is in the company of God Almighty and that of His angels, therefore,
he shall be victorious, whereby, he can win a war, conquer an enemy, or
renounces his attachment to the world. If climbing a mountain with difficulty
means distress, then descending it in a dream means relief. If climbing means
gaining a higher station, then descending in a dream means losing rank. If one
sees himself climbing a mountain, though at a certain height he finds himself
no longer able to climb or to descend in the dream, it means that he will die
young. If one sees himself falling from a mountain in a dream, it means that he
will fall into sin. If he falls and breaks a leg in the dream, it means that he will
become despised by his superiors. A mountain on fire in a dream represents the
death of a dangerous person. Leaning against a mountain in a dream represents
friendship with someone in authority. Living in the shadow of a mountain in a
dream means earning one’s livelihood from such a person and living happily
there. Carrying a mountain in a dream means carrying the responsibility of
managing the business of a notable merchant, and such responsibilities will
bear heavy on him. If the mountain is radiant with lights, it means that one’s
responsibilities will be light too. If he sees a mountain descending from the
heavens in a dream, it represents a visit of the local governor to that locality.
If one sees the mountain rising into the skies in a dream, it means that the
governor of that town will be dismissed. Throwing stones from the top of a
mountain in a dream means insulting others. If the mountain is beautifully
dressed in the dream, it means that one will command a greater authority.
Seeing a mountain at a distance in a dream means a journey. If one sees an
earthquake hitting a mountain in a dream, it means that calamities will befall
that land or country. If an evildoer sees a mountain in his dream, it means that
he will surely suffer for his sins. Swallowing a mountain in a dream means
commanding and controlling ruthless and strong men. Climbing a mountain
until one reaches a flat surface in a dream means serving orphans, or nursing
sick people. Entering a cave inside a mountain in a dream means reaching
safety. The good or evil emanating from seeing a mountain in one’s dream
depend on its fertility or bareness. Climbing a mountain and enjoying its
vegetations and its sweet fresh waters in a dream means sheltering one’s
chastity in the company of one’s wife, or learning a knowledge or a trade that
will satisfy one’s needs. Climbing a mountain through a straight path in a dream
means facing things the way they are. If one sees mountains moving forward
with him, it means a war or a major conflict between people of knowledge.
Falling down from the top of a mountain into the middle of beasts, crows,
vultures, snakes, mammals, mire, filth, or rats and their different kinds in a
dream means abstaining from sins, or refraining from innovation if escaping
from them leads one into a mosque where he can enter to pray, or a garden where
he can rest in peace. If the mountain crumbles, and if it is transformed into ashes
or dirt in the dream, it means that whoever is meant in that dream shall lose
his devotion and waste his life. (Also see Ascending in the skies)

Fall
Falling in a dream means despair or disappointment, or it could mean a
mistake that cannot be covered. Falling in a dream also means changing
conditions from good to bad, or a marriage failure and changing of spouse. It also
means changing profession, country or religion. Falling in a dram also projects
the reverse effects and produces positive results if what one falls over is pasture,
or if he falls upon a good community or to join a banquet or the like effects, then
it may have a positive meaning. On the other hand, falling into the hand of a
bad company, or into a beast’s den, etcetera, means evil consequences, or it could
mean stinginess. If one sees himself falling down from the roof of his house, and
if he breaks an arm or a leg in the dream, then it reflects a psychological distress,
adverse financial conditions, breaking of a friendship or it may mean suffering
from persecution by the local authorities.

Finding something)
Interpreted by Ibn Sirin
Burial
If one sees himself being buried after his death in a dream, it means that
he will undertake a long journey during which he will be short of money. If one
sees himself being buried alive and if he recognizes the one buiying him in the
dream, it means that the latter will assault him, oppress him, imprison him or
cause him injustice. If he dies in his grave after his burial in the dream, it means
that he may die from such sufferings. Should he survive such adversities in the
dream, it means that he will escape from such fear, prison or injustice. If he sees
the other person driving him to the edge of his grave in a dream, it means that
he will lead him to his death, though his name will be praised after his death.
If the other person places him inside a coffin in a dream, it means that he will
move to a new home. If the other person fills the grave with dirt on top of him
in the dream, it means that he will be piled with money equal to the amount he
is being buried under in the dream. It is said that to be buried alive in a dream
means losing one’s spirituality or religious commitment, unless one comes out
of it alive. If one walks out of his grave covered with dirt, then shakes off the
dust in the dream, it means that his state is hopeless or that his repentance has
little chance to hold. To be buried alive in a dream means imprisonment or
despise by others, or a severe punishment which makes one’s chastisement an
exemplary lesson to others, If a gnostic or a wise man is seen buried alive inside
his own house, or if he is brought out of it alive in a dream, it means that one
will inherit him in knowledge, wisdom and status. The same interpretation is
given if one sees a prophet or a holy man walking out of his grave alive. To be
buried after death, after sunrise, at noon or at the sunset hour in a dream means
that one is being warned about doing what is good and abstaining from what is
evil. To be buried alive in a dream is wrong and means betrayal. It could also
mean marriage, prosperity or peace and tranquility after suffering and hard¬
ships. If one sees a deceased person burying him alive in a dream, it means that
one’s due debts are not payed, or that one will be imprisoned to satisfy his debts,
or that his collateral was not accepted. To bury a dead person twice means that
one is covering his faults. If one sees a deceased person burying another
deceased person in a dream, it means unity, clearing of the hearts, love and
friendship between relatives, or perhaps it could mean imprisonment, marriage,
a sickness, a trust, or guaranteeing a loan. Seeing oneself being buried after
death in a dream means that one needs to repent before death. Should he still
walk alive from his burial in the dream, it means that he may repent again. God
knows best. (Also see Cemetery; Grave)

Hanging loosely
If one sees himself hanging down loosely from a high place in
a dream, it means that he will turn pious and for the sake of his faith, he will
give preference to his life in the hereafter over that of this world. One’s fall in
the dream connotes despair or disappointment. Hanging loosely to reach a lion,
a serpent, a scorpion, or the like creatures in a dream means hanging around
with evil companions, soliciting marriage from a corrupt family, or seeking the
friendship of the wrong people. Hanging loosely to reach some cattle or a herd
of sheep in a dream means delivering charities or spending money in a good way.

Incense
Perfuming oneself with sweet incense in a dream means having a good
friendship. An incense burner or holder in a dream represents a certitude that
is praiseworthy. Perfume in a dream basically means good, though to a bedridden
person it means death. This category includes: amber, henna plant ( Lawsonia
inermis, bot.), or fumigating oneself with sweet incense, though there is a
danger that could arise from the smoke in the dream. Perfuming oneself with
amber in a dream means increase in earnings that will come through the labor
of a rich person who is associated with the one seeing the dream. The seeds of
any dark colored perfume such as carnation, clove, or their powder, etcetera,
means receiving praises. The elements encompassed herein include: richness
after poverty, knowledge after ignorance, peace with one’s adversaries, bribery,
divulging one’s secrets, ingratiating oneself to a superior for personal gains, or
adulation. Incense in a dream also represents the heat of one’s love or passion.
In a dream, perfuming oneself with incense also means using an amulet or a
charm to repel jealousy, or to break through the stratagem of sorcery. Incense
in a dream also means using charm to bring peace, tranquility and profits if one
intends so in his dream. (Also see Aloe perfume; Civet; Frankincense; ‘Ud)

tidings, good news, good words to which one’s reply will be the same, or it could
represent a knowledge he teaches to others. (Also see Greetings)
Handsomeness: (See Elegance)
