(Flour; Moving around in a circle) In a dream, a miller represents a selfish
person who is particularly interested in acquiring worldly gains and at what¬
ever price it may cost. If one sees an old man being a miller in a dream, the old
man here represents his grandfather, or one’s bosom friend and consequently
one will prosper and become extremely wealthy from his business. If the miller
is a young and a strong man in the dream, then he represents a strong helper.
A bakery miller in a dream means that one will attain his own goals through
hard work. If one sees himself grinding a sufficient quantity of wheat for two,
three, or four people in a dream, it means that he labors for his own need and
can barely provide for his family. If the miller is a young man who has gray hair
in the dream, then he represents both prosperity and strength. Seeing a miller
in a dream also means adversities, fights, a spendthrift, usury, or a hard

(Scale) A balance and a scale in a dream have similar interpretations.
Both represent faith, justice and righteousness in words and actions. In a
dream, a balance also may represent a wife, or it could mean payment of one's
debts. A steelyard in a dream represents an architect or a builder. A miller's
scale in a dream represents a man who considers himself worthy of respect,
while his actions, earnings and moves are contemptible. A precision scale in a
dream represents a warning against heedlessness and concern for proper
accounting for one's actions. The justice scale represents a judge. If it stands
balanced in one's dream, then it means that the judge of that locality is a just
and a learned person. In a dream, the scales of a balance represents the judge's
ears. The money put on a scale for measuring represents the lawsuits, and the
weights represent the judgment. If one sees himself standing before God
Almighty on Judgment Day and if his good deeds weigh heavier than his sins
in the dream, it means that he will reckon himself, reflect about his bad actions
and correct the course of his life. Consequently, his reward in the hereafter will
be greater. Seeing the Balance of the Day of Judgement in a dream means
vulnerability of people's secrets, exposing one's actions in public, recognition of
the ultimate truth, joy, happiness, victory and justice. If one's deeds are
praiseworthy, then he will be a winner. Ifone's deeds are blameworthy, then he
will be a loser. In general, a balance in a dream represents a guide, an example
to follow, a scholar one seeks to learn at his hand, a ruler, a criterion and the
Qur'fm. It also may represent one's tongue and correctness, truthfulness, lies,
incredulity or trustworthiness. (Also see Measure 2; Measurer; Scale)
