Original source (English)
(See Jug.) To dream you drink water or milk from a pitcher is a good omen, and signifies you will be prosperous in love and business. To dream you spill anything out of a pitcher foretells losses from the treachery of supposed friends, and to dream you break a pitcher portends sickness, and accident while on a journey. To dream of breaking a pitcher is also a sign of bankruptcy through carelessness.
