Coals dream meaning is explained below using 4 different sources. Each interpretation is shown with its source.
Interpretation 1 — Stephen Girard
To dream of coals is a very unlucky omen; it denotes much affliction and trouble. To dream you see coals burning, if they are very clear and bright, is a good sign. To dream you see the coals extinguished and reduced to cinders, denotes death, either to yourself or some near relation or friend; it also indicates great losses, and forewarns you of beggary and prison.
