speculation.
    Adieu .
    To dream of bidding cheerful adieus to people, denotes that you
    will make pleasant visits and enjoy much social festivity;
    but if they are made in a sad or doleful strain, you will endure
    loss and bereaving sorrow.
    If you bid adieu to home and country, you will travel in the nature
    of an exile from fortune and love.
    To throw kisses of adieu to loved ones, or children, foretells that you will soon have a journey to make, but there will be no unpleasant accidents or happenings attending your trip.
    Admire .
    To dream that you are an object of admiration, denotes that you
    will retain the love of former associates, though your position
    will take you above their circle.
    Admonish .
    To admonish your child, or son, or some young person,
    denotes that your generous principles will keep you in favor,
    and fortune will be added to your gifts.
    Adopted .
    To see your adopted child, or parent, in your dreams, indicates that you will amass fortune through the schemes and speculations of strangers.
    To dream that you or others are adopting a child, you will make
    an unfortunate change in your abode.
    Adultery .[10]
    To dream that you commit adultery, foretells that you will be
    arrainged{sic} for some illegal action. If a woman has this dream,
    she will fail to hold her husband's affections, letting her
    temper and spite overwhelm her at the least provocation.
    If it is with her husband's friend, she will be unjustly ignored
    by her husband. Her rights will be cruelly trampled upon by him.
    If she thinks she is enticing a youth into this act, she will be
    in danger of desertion and divorced for her open intriguing.
    For a young woman this implies abasement and low desires,
    in which she will find strange adventures afford her pleasure.
    [10] It is always good to dream that you have successfully resisted
    any temptation. To yield, is bad. If a man chooses low ideals, vampirish influences will swarm around him ready to help him in his nefarious designs.
    Such dreams may only be the result of depraved elementary influences.
    If a man chooses high ideals, he will be illuminated by the deific
    principle within him, and will be exempt from lascivious dreams.
    The man who denies the existence and power of evil spirits has no arcana or occult knowledge. Did not the black magicians of Pharaoh's time, and Simon Magnus, the Sorcerer, rival the men of God? The dreamer of amorous sweets is warned to beware of scandal.
    Adulation .
    To dream that you seek adulation, foretells that you will pompously
    fill unmerited positions of honor.
    If you offer adulation, you will expressly part with some dear
    belonging in the hope of furthering material interests.
    Advancement .
    To dream of advancing in any engagement, denotes your rapid ascendency to preferment and to the consummation of affairs of the heart.
    To see others advancing, foretells that friends will hold positions
    of favor near you.
    Adversary .[11]
    To dream that you meet or engage with an adversary, denotes that
    you will promptly defend any attacks on your interest.
    Sickness may also threaten you after this dream.
    If you overcome an adversary, you will escape the effect
    of some serious disaster.
    [11] See Enemies.
    Adventurer .
    To dream that you are victimized by an adventurer, proves that you
    will be an easy prey for flatterers and designing villains.
    You will be unfortunate in manipulating your affairs to
    a smooth consistency.
    For a young woman to think she is an adventuress, portends that she
    will be too wrapped up in her own conduct to see that she is being
    flattered into exchanging her favors for disgrace.
    Adversity .
    To dream that you are in the clutches of adversity, denotes that you will have failures and continued bad prospects.
    To see others in adversity, portends gloomy surroundings, and the illness of some one will produce grave fears of the successful working of plans.[12]
    [12] The old dream books give this as a sign of coming
