Seeing “riding high”
in your dream

• A horse dying at a person’s hands or in his house: The death of such a person.

• Riding on a white-footed horse with a white fringe and all white harness while dressed as a full-fledged horseman: Will gain power and prestige, merit praise, and live secure from all enemies. A bay, roan, or reddish brown horse would be best if the dreamer were a combatant. The salamander 
(a color of Arab horses) refers to dignity and disease.

• Riding on a horse and making it run till it sweats: Will be overcome by passion and commit sins to earn your living. It is noteworthy that sweat emanating from running is an expenditure on some sinful matter, in view of the verse of the Holy Quran that reads: “Run 
(flee) not, but return to the good things of this life which were given you, and to your homes, in order that ye may be called to account. They said: Alas for us! Woe to us! We were indeed wrongdoers!” 
(“Al-Anbiyae” [The Prophets], verses 13–14.)

Draft horses or packhorses symbolize man’s perseverance and struggle. They are midway between a mare and a donkey. They represent a low-class wife and a slave or servant. On the other hand, they also refer to energy, luck earned through tears and sweat, and prosperity.

• Seeing one’s draft horse rolling in the dust: Efforts will be stepped up, and wealth will increase.

• A yellow packhorse: Sorrow.

• If someone used to riding mares rides a draft horse, his prestige will fall, his power will wane, and he might abandon his wife to go with a slave girl or a nanny.

• Conversely, if a person used to riding donkeys rides a draft horse, people will talk highly of him and praise him and his income will
increase. His sexual standard might also be promoted by going to bed with a free woman, rather than a slave.

• The higher and the stronger the pack horse, the greater and more solid the religious faith.
