The dreamer should look at what he feels needs ‘banishing’ from his life. [1]
It is also a long, protracted way of releasing emotions. When we hear someone wailing in a dream, we become conscious of another person’s sadness. [3]
A wail of a police siren denotes minor trouble with the law which involves you or someone close to you.
The wails of fire engines and ambulances denote a disaster of major proportions. [5]
For a young woman to hear a wail, foretells that she will be deserted and left alone in distress, and perchance disgrace.
