Original source (English)

To dream you have a misfortune denotes luck and success: thus; dreaming of the loss of money is a sign you will get some: if you imagine your house is burned, you will be successful in a speculation: if you dream of being robbed, it foretells a legacy or the finding of something valuable, &c.
