Thatmay also indicate that the dreamer is engaged in alchemy or is goingto become a money changer or goldsmith. You may say to the one whopossesses pitch and tar: you are going to attain some benefit with regardto those who deal with these materials, such as those who own boats.A man said: I dreamt that I took pitch from its source, and he was asoldier. Shaykh Shiha ab - ud - Deen said: You have a sick horse and theveterinarian gave you some pitch with which to treat it. He said: You areright. He said: Your horse will recover.
