Seeing in a dream that you are in the grip of disaster means that you are facing setbacks and long-term bad prospects. Seeing others in trouble - foretells dark circumstances, your illness in a dream will cause a very serious fear for the successful implementation of the plan. In old dream books, this dream is considered a sign of future prosperity. I believe that this definition is wrong. In man, there are two forces - one internal, the other external. They come from two spheres far apart; the brain, which is influenced by the sensory needs of man, and the spiritual mind have opposite effects on the content of dreams. If these two forces were in harmony, the spiritual picture of sleep would find a literal embodiment in the life of the one who sees this dream. Pleasant sensations of the body cause spiritual torment. The primitive role of bodily life impoverishes spiritual influences on the human soul. Tests of misfortunes often make the soul rejoice, and the flesh grieve. If the weeping of the grieving spirit falls upon the sleeping mind, it can promise to the one who sees the dream, worldly successes.
