Cent Dream Meaning
Dream interpretation
Seeing a cent in your dream signifies baseless pride, falsehood, or arguments. If you dream of swallowing a cent and later expelling it as a penny, it may indicate that you are leaning towards some unusual beliefs or ideologies. The presence of the cent can also symbolize arrogance or unnecessary display in your life, which could negatively impact your relationships or social standing.
Ibn Sirin
Cent — Islamic interpretation
From Imam Muhammad Ibn Seerin's Dictionary of Dreams According to Islamic Inner Traditions — entry "Cent" (page 75).
Seeing one cent in a dream means an argument, falsehood, ostentation or pride. Swallowing a quarter and excreting it as a penny in a dream signifies that the person is a zendik or an atheist. Pennies in a dream signify evil, fights and speaking despicable words. If God's name is encrusted on the penny in the dream, it means that such a person who carries it has licensed himself to do evil in the name of God Almighty. Seeing a cent in a dream also could signify cheating, toiling, fights, boredom, atheism, sorrow, sadness, tight circumstances, an argument, meager earnings, dispelling poverty, going to work, wages, insolvency or the spread of mutual defamation among scholars. (Also see Money; Penny)
Note: Islamic dream interpretation depends on the dreamer's circumstances and state. This is a general guide drawn directly from the source book.
