Button in a dream
A button in a dream is read as a small thing that keeps order and a sign that everything is slowly falling into place.
In folk readings, a button is a small thing that means a lot: it keeps a coat fastened and plans together. Neatly sewn buttons are believed to speak of a tidy life and attention to detail. A button that has come off is not a bad sign; dream books read it as a reminder to fasten something in time, be it an agreement or a schedule. A found button is held, with a smile, to be a little piece of luck that comes at the right moment.
