To dream of your national flag, portends victory if at war, and if at peace, prosperity.
For a woman to dream of a flag, denotes that she will be ensnared by a soldier.
To dream of foreign flags, denotes ruptures and breach of confidence between nations and friends.
To dream of being signaled by a flag, denotes that you should be careful of your health and name, as both are threatened.

To dream you see a flag waving, betokens great danger from enemies, or sickness. To dream you carry a flag, signifies you will receive some mark of distinction from your fellow-citizens. If a maid dream she is making a flag, it is a sign she will marry a rich officer in the Army or Navy; but if a married woman has this dream, it foretells the birth of a son who will become a great general. 13, 35,
