About
Enchantment
To dream of being under the spell of enchantment, denotes that if you are not careful you will be exposed to some evil in the form of pleasure. The young should heed the benevolent advice of their elders. To resist enchantment, foretells that you will be much sought after for your wise counsels and your liberality. To dream of trying to enchant others, portends that you will fall into evil.
