Fish in a dream
In folk belief, a fish in a dream announces abundance, a gain or joyful news in the family.
In old dream books, the fish is a sign of abundance and fertility. Clear water and a lively fish are believed to bring a good spell, while murky water speaks of an unclear situation that will soon settle. The size of the fish is read as the size of what you are hoping for. Either way, people have always considered this a good dream, and it should not worry you.
