(Behind; Posterior; Rear side) In a dream, the back of a human being
represents what people hold for him of praises or blame, acceptance or rejection,
honor or humiliation, or it could represents one’s debts. Seeing the back of a
human being in a dream also means following his tracks or practices. If a
positive look manifests therein, such as a sweet fragrance or the emergence of
a radiant light, or if it turns into iron in the dream, it signifies one’s gratitude
regarding his own condition. In a dream, the rear side of the human being
represents his outward appearance or what renders the human being accept¬
able, or it could represent his garment, an ostentatious person, a show of
grandeur, pride about one’s social class, a show of being wealthy, the surround¬
ings of one’s house, the outskirts of a town, the outer display of one’s religion
or his school of thought. A broken back in a dream means fear, distress and
sorrow. If one sees his rear side dark in color, black or red in a dream, it means
that he may suffer from physical abuse and beating during a fight. Seeing one’s
own back in a dream also could mean buying new clothing, or it could mean
feeling strong because of one’s knowledge, his son, power, political connections,
wealth or property. Seeing one’s back in a dream also could mean to repudiate
one’s wife. If one’s back is seared or cauterized in a dream, it denotes stinginess,
or it could mean that he fails to comply with God’s rights upon him. If one sees
his back bent in a dream, it means a misfortune. If one sees the back of his friend
in a dream, it means that his friend will turn his back to him at times when he
needs him most. If one sees the back of his enemy in a dream, it means that he
will be guarded against his threats. If one sees the back of an old woman in a
dream, it means that the world is turning its back to him. If she is in her middle
age in the dream, it means that he is seeking something hard to obtain. If she
is a young woman in the dream, it means that he is expecting something and
must be patient to acquire it. One’s back also represents old age. Back pain in
a dream means poverty, sickness, debility, imprisonment of one’s boss or the
death of a brother. One’s back in a dream also represents one’s dependence on
a strong person. If one sees himself carrying a heavy load on his back in a dream,
it means debts, or a vicious neighbor. A broken back in a dream means losing
one’s strength and power, or it could mean one’s death. If a sick person sees his
back broken in a dream, it means that the person who is taking care of him may
die shortly, or it could mean that he will suffer from poverty. Carrying burdens
over one’s back in a dream means sins. Carrying a coffin or a load of merchandise
over one’s back in a dream means carrying forgotten debts that will surface at
awkward times. Carrying wood over one’s back in a dream means backbiting,
slandering people and reporting lies. Carrying a heavy load over one’s back in
a dream also means having many children with little money to sustain them.
Seeing a hunchbacked person in a dream means prosperity, longevity or having
a large family. ( Also see Backbone; Backside; Body’)

Musk
In a dream, musk represents a private charity, pregnancy, a profitable
business, a valuable property, a farm, fruit trees, olive trees, or advanced
knowledge. When associated with a deceased person, musk in a dream may
mean that he is in paradise. If musk is burned as incense in a dream, it means
innovation, loss of money and respect, putting things in the wrong place, or
serving a strong person for a fee. In a dream, musk also represents one’s beloved,
his servant, his son or a beautiful woman. If a thief sees himself carrying musk
in a dream, it means that he will cease robbing people, for a sweet fragrance
points to its carrier and exposes what he hides. Musk in a dream also means
money, gold, comfort, glad tidings, good news, or innocence. The same inter¬
pretation is given to carnation, clove, nutmeg and other dark seeds, all of which
mean triumph and happiness. Grinding them in a dream means receiving
praises. Offering them whole in a dream means doing good to an ungrateful
person. (Also see Amber; Anoint; Galia moschata)
