Original source (English)
To dream you are amorous, warns you against personal desires and pleasures, as they are threatening to engulf you in scandal.
For a young woman it portends illicit engagements, unless she chooses staid and moral companions. For a married woman, it foreshadows discontent and desire for pleasure outside the home.
To see others amorous, foretells that you will be persuaded to neglect your moral obligations. To see animals thus, denotes you will engage in degrading pleasures with fast men or women.
