Tears
(Pearls) In a dream, cold tears mean happiness while warm tears mean
sadness. Running tears over one’s cheeks without crying in a dream mean
slander that carries weight. Guarded tears in someone’s eyes that do not flow
over his cheeks in a dream mean storing illegal money, or disguising the
unlawful source of one’s income which one’s adversaries will eventually unveil
or expose. If such tears are finally shed in the dream, they mean that one will
willingly spend such money, or get rid of it to conceal his act. If one sees tears
running from his right eye and entering his left eye in the dream, it means that
his son and daughter may engage in sexual intercourse, and he must immediately
separate between their rooms, and teach them about the lawful and the
unlawful. Tears which come during yawning in a dream signify payment of an
unjust fine. Seeing tears during the daylight time, or under the sun, or in front
of a fire in a dream means business losses caused by one of these three elements.

Pine
(Seeds; Terebinth; Tree) Pine trees and their fruit in a dream mean
loneliness and bewilderment during travels. Climbing a pine tree in a dream
means triumph, success and hearing good news. Pine nuts in a dream represent
the pine tree itself. A pine nut in a dream also represents a renowned person
who has a noble character, a godly person who is respected, holy but poor, or it
could represent someone who has little to offer, or a person who shelters thieves
out of compassion. The same interpretation applies to owls and crows. Building
a door for one’s house from pine wood in a dream means hiring a servant or a
doorman who has little politeness and who is filled with foolish ideas. If a
merchant or a businessman builds such a door in a dream, it means that he will
unknowingly employ a thief.

his dream, it means money, good business and dispelling of his anxiety, sadness,

a shipment of yellow cows arrives at the port of a city in a dream, it means a
plague or the spreading of unknown diseases. If a herd of ugly looking cows
enters a city with smoke emanating from their noses, and if the people hate their
look in the dream, it means a raid, an enemy, or that unwanted solders will
control that town. If one sees himself riding a cow in a dream, it means that he
will inherit a woman. If one is offered a cow hide as a gift in a dream, it means
that he will receive money from someone in authority. On the other hand, if one
