women, but if their number is not known, then they represent money from a
doubtful source. If one sees a fish colony gathering at seabed, where he is fishing,
bringing them up and eating them raw as he pleases, or if he places them into
baskets and divides them into lots in the dream, it means that he will prosper
and invest his wealth in different ventures and savings plans. A whale in a
dream represents the minister of sea life, while the sea itself represents the king
or the country. A whale in a pond with his jaws opened in a dream represents
a prison. A large fish colony in a dream represents despised earnings, or earning
a large amount money one is accountable for its expenditure. Fishing in a well
means homosexuality, or it could represent someone who tries to tempt his
servant or his assistant to indulge in a loathsome act. If one sees himself fishing
in murky waters in a dream, it conveys evil, sorrows, or distress however it may
happen. If one sees himself fishing in clear waters in a dream, it means money
or hearing nice words or conceiving a son, while fishing in salty waters in a
dream means difficulties. If one sees himself fishing with a fishhook in a dream,
it means excitement, pleasure or losing benefits. A soft skin fish in a dream
means benefits for someone intending to trick or to swindle people’s money.
Mostly fishing with a pole and a fishhook in a dream means difficulties or slow

fish or a barbel fish (cyprinus bynni; barbus ) in a dream denote positive benefits
for someone intending marriage or to enter into a business partnership. Seeing
a herring or any of its clupeid type fish in a dream represent evil work or toiling
for something one will never get. A fish in the pond in a dream is also a sign of
benefits, though may be little benefits. Seeing dead fish floating in the water in
a dream has an ominous connotation, or they could represent a hopeless case.
Taking fish from the water and eating them alivemeans profits, or an appointment
to a high raking position in wakefulness. In a dream, if a sick man or a traveller
finds fish in his bed it also connotes bad or a painful sickness or suffering from
arthritis, or he may drown because he would be sleeping with them. Seeing sea
fish covered with salt in a dream means lasting richness, because fish are
preserved in salt, or it could mean burdens. If one’s wife is pregnant and he sees
a fish coming out of his male organ in a dream, it means that his wife will beget

A fried fish in a dream means that one’s prayers will be answered. A broiled fish

painstakingly to catch a whale in a small pond in a dream, it means money that

that he will marry a rich woman and conceives one or two sons with her. If he
finds a ring in the belly of the fish in a dream, it means that he will gain authority
and might. Finding fat in the belly of a fish in a dream means acquiring money
from a woman. Seeing oneself fishing on a dry land means committing adultery,
a sin, or it could mean hearing good news. Catching a fish with excessive bones
and scales denotes the necessity to pay one’s dues or to distribute alms tax on
one’s liquid assets, because one cannot enjoy his catch unless he first cleanse
it. Seeing sea fish swimming toward sweet waters, or river fish swimming
toward the sea in a dream means hypocrisy, falsehood or the rise of an innovator
or an impostor. If one sees fish swimming on the water surface in a dream, it
means ease in attaining his goals, exposing secrets, unveiling hidden past,
reviewing old books or redistributing an old inheritance. If one sees fish that
have the look ofhuman beings in a dream, it means business, trading or meeting
with an interpreter, or a translator, or associating with people of good character.
If such fish with a human face look beautiful, then one’s companions are good.
Otherwise, if the fish look ugly in the dream, then it means that he has
associated himself with evil companions. If one sees an aquarium in his house
filled with all types of catfish, or angelfish or similar fish that live in a home
aquarium in a dream, it means being charitable or taking care of orphans or
adopting children. If one sees himself reaching with his hand to the bottom of
the seabed to catch fish in a dream, it means that he will acquire extensive
knowledge in his profession and prosper from his trade. Otherwise, it could

if one catches a goldfish from its belly in the dream, it means that God Almighty
will reveal new spiritual knowledge to him in order to help him understand his
religion and to receive guidance. If the goldfish leaves his hand and returns to
the sea in the dream, it means that he will join the company of righteous people
and saints from whom he will learn about the inner spiritual knowledge, or that
he will find a good companion for a journey he intends. If one eats a fish without
cleaning or cooking it in a dream, it means that he will speak ill of his own
friends, slander his associates, commit adultery, acquire money from trickery
and falsehood, or become inflicted with a dangerous disease or suffer from a
stroke. If one sees fish on the shore rather than in the water in a dream, it means
that he may change his profession. The different types of fish in a dream
represent human beings and their professions. A fish in a dream also could mean
that death will take place where it is found, because of the departure of its soul,
its stench, weight and one’s responsibility to bury the deceased. Eating a fish
in a dream also means receiving easy, lawful and enjoyable earnings. (Also see
