Bell in a dream
In folk belief, a bell in a dream announces news, a call or guests, and a clear ring means glad tidings.
According to old dream books, a bell in a dream signals that something is arriving: word from someone, an invitation or an event people will talk about. Clear, merry ringing is read as joyful news and celebration, a quiet little bell as a small, pleasant message. Folk belief holds that a bell wakes and reminds, so sometimes the dream only means you should not forget an arrangement. Whatever the sound, it is read as a sign that your circle of dear people is growing.

Dreaming of ringing a bell
