Book in a dream
In folk belief, a book in a dream stands for knowledge, wisdom and an answer you already carry with you.
Old dream books consider a book a very nice sign. An open book is read as learning that comes easily and people who are sincere with you, a closed one as a secret you have yet to discover. In folk belief, reading in a dream heralds good advice or a new insight. An old book speaks of the experience of your elders, which is worth listening to. Whoever dreams of books is said to have a curious spirit and progress ahead.
