Old woman عجوز

In a dream she is incapacity ['ajz, wordplay on 'ajūz]. She may signify the departing world and sorrow, and she may signify the Hereafter because it is the opposite of this world. She signifies wine, because that is one of its names, and she signifies the cow, because that is also one of its names. The old woman in a dream may signify pregnancy after despair of it, and she may signify cunning, deceit, slander and fault-finding. A sick old woman is incapacity; a thirsty one is drought, and if she becomes a young girl again, the drought will end. If an unknown old woman enters upon a sick person, death is feared for him. It is a sign of good for a pregnant woman, because she sets right the affair of the child and of the woman after childbirth. Whoever is engaged in an important matter and sees an old woman lying down with him or accompanying him will be unable to accomplish his matter and his aim. The old woman signifies salty land that grows nothing. Whoever sees her veiled, it is hardship and regret.

(Whoever sees) an old woman, he will attain dignity. The unknown old woman signifies a barren year.

(Whoever sees) an old woman descend from the sky while people marvel at her, she is the year. An old woman of ugly appearance may be good tidings of the end of war and drought. An emaciated old woman is a year of drought; if she becomes fat or returns in a fine form, the year and earnings will turn favourable. An old woman who is made up and uncovered is a fertile, pleasing world with swift good tidings; if she is grim-faced, it is the world with worry and loss of standing; if she is ugly, it is a reversal in the dreamer's affairs from one state to another; if she is naked, it is a scandal in his worldly life.

(Whoever sees) an old woman enter his house, his worldly fortune will come toward him; if he sees her leave him, his worldly fortune will go. The unknown old woman is stronger in interpretation than the known one.

(Whoever sees) that he is dealing with an old woman or having relations with her, she is among the signs of this world. If a woman sees that she has become an old woman, it is the soundness of her worldly life.
