Tanner
(Changing hide into leather or curing it; Dye) Seeing a tanner in a dream
is interpreted the same as seeing a cupper. ( See Cupping). Both specialties cure
something. If one sees a physician becoming a tanner in a dream, it denotes his
expertise and the large number of people who benefit from his treatments.
Unless one finds the tanning to be faulty, then it indicates a non-professional
person. If seeing a tanner in a dream is understood to denote material benefits,
then in reality, he represents an escape from death. If he is understood in
relationship with religious matters, then seeing him means feeding the poor and
hungry during a drought or a famine. A tanner in a dream also represents a
peacemaker, a physician, or a guardian. However, it is possible to interpret a
tanner in a dream to mean distress, adversities, or an unjust person. (Also see
Dye; Vat)

Tannery
(Leather dying factory) A tannery in a dream has the same interpreta¬
tion as that of a slaughterhouse. It also represents a school, a fellowship house,
or similar places where the mind and spirit are taught and reared to correct
oneself, to hold to what is true and to discard what is false. A tannery in a dream
also represents a patient, forbearing and a hard-working woman, a housekeeper,
or a child. Perhaps a tannery in a dream also could denote a harsh, wretched
and a contemptible woman, though she likes cleanliness and guards herself
from others’ impurities. (Also see Dye; Vat)

Vulture
(Candor; Eagle; Enemy; Evil; Imbecile; Thieves) A vulture in a dream
represents a stupid, abominable and a lewd person. When seen during a
daylight dream, it means a grievous illness. If one sees a vulture inside his house
in a dream, it means sending help to assist someone in difficulty. Capturing a
vulture in a dream means a fight or war. A flock of vultures descending upon
a town in a dream represent an occupying army with merciless soldiers who will
plunder such town. If a sick person sees a vulture inside his house in a dream,
it means the approach of his death. As for a tanner and a potter, or the like
craftsmen, seeing a vulture in a dream means profits or benefits. As for
physicians or sick people, a vulture in their dream purports evil. In general,
vultures in a dream represent highway robbers, a band of thieves who are not
residents of that town, people who refuse to earn their livelihood through honest
work, or it could represent an undertaker, a body snatcher, a grave digger, or
a lewd and an insulting person. (Also see Eagle)

Physician
(Mother) A physician in a dream represents a wise man, or a religious
doctor. A physician in a dream also represents a scholar, and a scholar in a
dream represents a physician. If one sees a physician examining him in a dream,
it means an improvement in his health condition. If one sees a religious scholar
advising him in a dream, it means that hypocrisy and doubt will be dispelled
from his heart. A physician in a dream also represents one’s mother, or he could
be an opponent, or an adversary. The death of one’s physician in a dream means
the death of one’s mother. If a sick person sees a physician visiting him in a
dream, it means that he will recover from his illness. If a physician visits a
healthy person in a dream and write a prescription for him, it means that he will
fall sick. Seeing or visiting a physician in a dream means exposing one’s secrets,
for a physician works to extract the patient’s illness just like a snake charmer
who brings a snake out of its hiding. A physician in a dream also represents a
garbage collector, a street cleaner, a spy, a backbiter, or a fighter who sometime
wins and sometime loses. To see oneself as a physician in a dream means
attaining a high ranking position, or becoming a policeman, or a commander
who controls people’s livelihood. A physician in a dream also represents some¬
one who provides spiritual as well as practical guidance, a social reformer, a
judge, a preacher, a teacher, a tanner, or a copper. If one sees a just and a well
known judge as a physician in a dream, it means that his compassion and
welfare will encompass everyone in that locality. If one sees a known physician
as a judge or a wise man in a dream, it means that one will become renowned,
his status will rise and he will become a celebrated pioneer in his field. If he is
not known to be a righteous physician, then it means that one will be visited with
adversities, or it could mean that someone will die from malpractice, or it could
mean persevering with daring attempts do increase one’s business at the
expense of people’s lives. If one sees a physician selling coffins or folded shrouds
in a dream, one should be suspicious of him in wakefulness even if people are
fascinated by his charm. If one sees a physician working as a tanner in a dream,
it shows the physicians ingenuity, knowledge of his trade and the many people
who recover from their illness at his hand. The exception to that is when the tan
is spoiled, or if it has a stench, or if it is ineffective in the dream, then it means
that such a physician is a crafty swagger.

Vat
(Tank; Tanning drum; Tannery; Woman) A vat in a dream holds the same
interpretation as a tannery, except if a tannery represents an independent
woman in a dream, then a vat will represent an inhibited woman. A vat in a
dream also represents a bathhouse, death by drowning, or dying under a
collapsing structure.
