Some dreams are interpreted to mean the opposite when the elements are
related. This tradition comes from examples such as crying when one is extremely
happy; or when laughing in the face of adversities; or seeing the sun and
the moon fighting and interpreting it as a fight between two people; or calling
a flood an enemy and an enemy a flood, because both are destructive; or when
eating a fig in a dream to mean regret and regret to mean eating a fig, because
the fig tree is accursed in some traditions; or when one sees himself dead in a
dream, though even if he does not have the look of dead people to mean losses
or destruction of part of one's house; or interpreting locusts as warriors and
warriors as locusts, because ofthe destruction they both cause to a land; etcetera.
Interpretation by Correlation,
Relativity, and Approximation
In this case, laughing in a dream means sorrow, while smiling in a dream
means politeness and correct conduct. Crying in a dream is usually interpreted
as happiness, but when accompanied with intonation or wailing, it means a
calamity. As for putting grease over one's hair, dream interpreters infer the
meaning of adornment, while if it dribbles over one's face, they call it hypocrisy,
fawning, or adulation.
As for saffron in a dream, they interpret it to mean praises
or commendation, while should its color manifest in one's body or clothing, then
they call it an illness. As for feathers in a dream, they call them wealth or comfort,
but when one sees himself flying with wings, they interpret it to mean travels
or rising in station, depending on how high one reaches in his dream. If one's
hand is cut off in a dream, and if he sees himself carrying it, it means having a
brother or a son, while if he loses it in the dream, it means an adversity or loss
of a brother or a son. If a sick person sees himself in a dream walking out of his
house in silence, it means his death and funeral, while ifhe speaks in the dream,
