Cannon
This dream denotes that one's home and country
are in danger
of foreign intrusion, from which our youth
will suffer from
the perils of war.
For a young woman to hear or see cannons,
denotes she will be a soldier's wife
and will have to bid him godspeed as he marches
in defense of her and honor.
The reader will have to interpret dreams of
this character
by the influences surrounding him, and by
the experiences stored
away in his subjective mind. If you have
thought about cannons
a great deal and you dream of them when there
is no war, they are
most likely to warn you against struggle
and probable defeat.
Or if business is manipulated by yourself
successful engagements
after much worry and ill luck may ensue.

world will
prove disappointing after you dream of rowing
in muddy waters.
If the waters are shallow and swift, a hasty
courtship or stolen pleasures,
from which there can be no lasting good,
are indicated.
Shallow, clear and calm waters in rowing,
signifies happiness
of a pleasing character, but of short duration.
Water is typical of futurity in the dream
realms. If a pleasant immediate
future awaits the dreamer he will come in
close proximity with clear water.
Or if he emerges from disturbed watery elements
into waking life the near
future is filled with crosses for him.
