Gong Hee Fot Choy

Book of Dreams

by Margarete Ward

PREFACE

Following the publication of my fortune-telling system, GongHee Fot Choy,many have requested that I publish a dreambook. This dream book is my response to the public's demand.

What Is a Dream?

First I will tell you how to distinguish between a real dreamand an unreal dream. Our soul is ever awake and guards ourbody both night and day. When the body sleeps the soul, likethe wireless waves of the radio, travels many places and sometimes contacts other souls, and in this way dreams aremade.

The unreal dream or nightmare, as some of us refer to a baddream, is caused by the body cramping the heart or you are lying in an uncomfortable position; or perhaps you have eatensomething that disagreed with you. The soul takes the bestcare of the body, and when this condition exists, the soul knows the body's needs, and at once the soul will record a terrible happening, to arouse the body so that it will change itsposition or wake up. You may dream that you are falling, orthere is a terrible fire, or a bad animal is chasing you—something most generally to scare you—and when you do awakenafter such a dream, you will feel weak or exhausted. This is caused by the body not properly resting. This dream is calledan unreal dream, so if you have such a dream, just disregard it for it has no meaning whatsoever.

A real dream is one that takes place and does not disturb you, and you can easily recall every incident afterwards. Itwill seem very real. Dreams like this have decided meanings. They come as a forewarning of approaching good or evil.

To have the best guiding dreams you should go to sleepwithout worry. If you have troubles, relax—try to dismiss them from your mind. If you will dismiss everything fromyour mind when you retire, your soul will record many happenings upon your blank receptive mind before you wake up.The soul goes here and there and contacts many places andother souls while the body sleeps, and the information thesoul gathers while the body rests will help you solve yourmany problems in your waking hours, and a neutral mind will help the soul in receiving messages others send you from adistance.

In this book I have given you the psychic interpretation ofnearly 600 dreams. The object of this dream book is to teach you to decipher your own dreams. It is very easy if you willquietly analyze everything you dreamed about.

The words I have selected to interpret for you are the mostoutstanding. Many words have a similar meaning and if Iwere to list all the meanings here, there would be much repetition. Many dreams, like words have a similar meaning. I havegiven you thorough interpretations for you to follow in deciphering your dreams; for instance:

Animals all come under the same classifications as far as interpreting their meaning. All flowers likewise have the samesignificance. All trees and shrubs indicate similar meanings.

Therefore, if I should list all of the different individualnames of similar things it would merely make a repetition. When you are interpreting your dream, keep this thought in mind. If you cannot find the exact thing you dreamed abouttry to find something listed in the book that is similar-something that falls into the same classification. Then quietly think of it and you will be surprised how you can interpret themeaning of your own dreams.

There are only three kinds of dreams—the actual contactsof your soul with others while you sleep, good prophecies,and warnings.

I hope this will teach you how to dream and how to interpret your dreams and may all your dreams be helpful, guiding

ones.

"And being warned of God in a dream, that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way."

Matthew ii, 12

A MESSAGE TO YOU

Friends: While demonstrating my fortune telling game,GongHee Fot Choy,in stores throughout the country, I have metand talked to thousands of people. Many of them havebrought me their personal problems and I can truthfully saythat those who have followed my advice have been helped. Ihave shown them what can be done through the right thought. Each of us has his own problems, but no one has aproblem which cannot be solved if he will tune in to the higher power and trust that he will receive guidance.

How can we tune in to this higher power? That is what mostof us want to know. Everywhere we see people who observereligious forms, give to charity, etc., who yet do not receivethe blessings that are rightfully theirs. Why is this? Theanswer is that they are not using foresight. They lament that iftheir foresight were as good as their hindsight they would bemillionaires, yet they seem to make no effort to use or developtheir latent powers or intuition. If they would heed the signs and warnings which are plainly given, instead of complainingof their lot and asking others to do for them the things theyshould do for themselves, they would achieve success and win the things they desire.

We are warned again and again by dreams and signs, buthow many of us heed them? Read from the Bible the story ofthe king's dream interpreted by Daniel (Daniel 2) or ofPharaoh's dreams interpreted by Joseph (Genesis 41). Now,if God warned people by dreams in those days, do you notthink that He does so still? Yet how often do we hear one say,"So-and-so prophesied this accident," or "I had a feeling Ishould not do this, but I paid no attention to it," whereas, if he had heeded the warning he might have been saved disaster.We disregard these warnings, and when we must suffer the consequences we bemoan our fate. If we would only heed theinner voice, give thought to our dreams, and earnestlycultivate our foresight, we could not only avoid manytroubles but also achieve the success which we spend our energies in wishing for. And if the energy we expend in vainwishing, or in complaining, in gossip, envy and hate, wereturned into constructive effort, how much we might accomplish, how much sooner we should attain our goal, withplenty to use at our command

We must listen to the inner voices, and we must put forthour best efforts, but we must also have patience. We become too anxious. We cannot wait. But the forces of nature are not hurried and we must attune our lives to the higher forces thatgovern the world. Listen to the words which Jesus spoke to a multitude of anxious men and women on a Galilean hillside:

"Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, orwhatyeshall drink; nor yet for your body, what yeshall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and thebody than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air; for theysow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns;yet your Heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye notmuch better than they? Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? And why take yethought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field,how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: Andyet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glorywas not arrayed like one of these."

Matthew 6:25-29

Many people pray for all sorts of things, and when theirprayers are said they forget what they have prayed for, orthey sit down idly, hoping that their prayers will bring themwhat they want without any effort of their own, that fortunewill fall into their laps. What we must do is to decide what it isthat we really want—setting our goal within reason and notexpecting miracles—then listen to the voice within, seek guidance from the higher power, have patience and confidence,and put forth earnest and steadfast effort to achieve ourdesire. If we follow this rule, we shall perhaps not attain thegoal we dreamed of, but we shall certainly come infinitelynearer to it than if we had spent our time merely wishing for itor seeking to attain it by lax, indifferent, or dishonest means.True, we will meet with reverses, but reverses are lessonsgiven to develop our souls and make us strong characters. Weshould not beg in prayer for the things we want. No one loves a beggar who is not willing to work for what he gets; and who knows that the Higher Power does not become impatient withus when we whine and fret, like spoiled children, instead of putting forth our best efforts to help answer our own prayers?We should talk to the Higher Power as we would to a father, knowing that He knows what is best for us and will help us if we help ourselves. If we give our very best to every task, nomatter how menial, using to the full all our God-givenpowers, and trusting our Father to know what is for our high est good, we may be sure that what is best for us will come tous in due time.

Never worry or lament over what is past.

Never indulge in self-pity; nothing can be more deadly toyour growth.

Be thankful that you have been chosen to carry a burden,for this makes you strong.

Never envy another person his luck. Things do not happenby luck. We earn what we get—if not in one way, then inanother.

Never wish that you had what belongs to another; wish thatyou had some like it. Do not envy another's wealth or success;be glad, as if he were one of your own. God has blessed him for something he has done, either in this life or in the one justpast. Make friends with those who have plenty, for they canteach you how to get things to use for yourself. Rememberthat nothing in this world belongs to us; it is merely here forus to use. We brought nothing here with us and we can takenothing away. Those who seem to have more than we, are merely using more than we are.

God has not made things in a small way; His blessings areunlimited. Therefore we should never be stingy or saving for tomorrow, for who promised us tomorrow? Live today so thattomorrow you may say, "Yesterday I lived." Tomorrow, ifgiven, will be taken care of.

Don't worry; worry is a poison that destroys.

Remember that charity begins at home. Look out first forthe needs of yourself and your own household. If all would dothis, there would be little need for us to take care of others.

If someone is ill, help him; if someone is hungry, feed him;then try to teach him how to tune in to the higher forces sothat he can care for himself in the future. Always seek to teachand help others, for there are many young souls here whoneed help.

When others are in sorrow or excited, remain calm. Knowthat whatever befalls them is for their own good. Even deathis but a graduation to a higher plane of life.

Clean your mind of evil thoughts about others. If othersrepeat evil gossip, do not listen; forget it; don't repeat it.

Things are usually different from what they appear. Remember that there is a reason for everything.

If you hear that an unkind thing has been said about you,treat it like a mud puddle; step over it, not in it. Thus you willsend the evil back to the sender and he will have it to cope with, for it did not belong to you in the first place.

About all, think healthy thoughts, and when things do notturn out as you had planned, remember the thing you wantedwas not meant for you and that there is something better instore for you.

If an enemy harms you by word or deed, wish him goodluck and happiness with all the sincerity in your heart. Do not seek revenge. There are other forces which will mete out justice, and we need not bother. Leave your enemy alone with histhoughts, and his own thoughts will be his punishment.

Never say, "I can't do this," or "I can't do that." Try. You will find you can. The wordcan't has done a lot of harm inthis world. The wordcan is the right word.

Since time has been set for our seasons, there is a time for everything. There is a time for work, a time for play; a time tosleep, a time to eat; everything has its rightful time. Since timeplays so important a role in our lives, I am putting into thisDream Book the Planetary Hours for each day of the year, so that you can see the most favorable time for all your undertakings, such as buying, selling, calling, or anything you wishto do. Consult the Planetary Hour Guide before setting thetime for doing anything that is important to you. Find themost favorable hour in which to do it. This Dream Book isdifferent from any other on the market. Its purpose is notmerely to interpret your dreams, but to teach you how to unfold the meaning of your own dreams so that you may use them to guide you. It would be impossible to print here everydream, but they have been so classified that the reader may quickly learn how to interpret his own dreams.

No matter how bad your dream may be, if there is somegood part in it somewhere, the good part modifies or lessensthe bad. On the other hand, if a good dream contains a little bad, you may be sure that the better part will prevail; thingswill change for the better.

I do hope that some day people will stop, look and listen to their small still voice that is always trying to speak to them. When they do, they will receive continual spiritual help. Weare all born prophets, but we do not use our gift. We are toobusy with worldly affairs to see the spiritual realm surrounding us. Why? Just because we can see the material things and cannot see the spiritual. We want proof to manifest itself in worldly possessions, and we want miracles to happen. We donot want to wait for the higher forces to give us, in duecourse, the things we should have. Oh, impatient people!How I would like to shake you when I see you take life so seriously, your faces all wrinkled with worry. The higher forceslove you as well as anyone else. Give them a chance to helpyou. Send out thoughts of love to everyone. Smile; it costsyou nothing. In the hurry of life, we forget to practice the little courtesies. Politeness is to the finish of living, as polish is to afine piece of furniture. No matter how fine the wood, it doesnot make a fine piece of furniture in its unfinished state. In thesame way, by failing to observe the common courtesies we lose the polish which makes life smooth and pleasant. The wordsplease andthank you cost us nothing and pay us much.

Try to smile even when you are sad of heart; it will become ahabit and will take you far by attracting the right vibration toyou; it will change your whole outlook on life. "Unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: butfrom him that hath not shall be taken away even that whichhe hath." (Matthew 25:29) Don't take life too seriously.Remember we are here to learn a lesson, and we are not here for long. Live and let live. By being generous we receive themore. If you buy new clothing, give your old to those who need it. The old garments will be new to them and bring themjoy. Clear out your closets and they will be filled. A closed hand cannot be filled. Do not worry about tomorrow, fortomorrow, if it comes, will take care of itself. Godhas put plenty within reach of all who seek it in the right way. Those who wait for Him to toss it into their laps will have little, but those who cooperate with Him will be blessed abundantly. We are here to learn, and the only way to learn is towork. So go out and gather in from near and far the bountifulsupply that is yours to use.

Sweet sleep be with us, one and all!And if upon its stillness fallThe visions of a busy brain,We'll have our pleasure o'er again,To warm the heart, to charm the sight. Gay dreams to all! Good night, good night.T. B. Aldrich Sonnet:"Sleep"

Dreams are the true interpreters of our inclinations, but art is required to sort and understand them.

Montaigne,"The Merchant ofVenice"—ActII

HOW I MET MY CHINESE TEACHER—LEE MING

Many persons I meet want to know how I happened to take upthe study of Chinese philosophy; and the teaching of their religions. In the following I will endeavor to explain.

When I lived inChinaI was introduced, by an American friend, to a Chinese gentleman whose name was Kwan TsiChing. Mr. Ching was wealthy, and like all the wealthyChinese men, owned a large estate about the size of one of our residential blocks. When I met Mr. Ching he invited me to hishome to visit his family. I never shall forget the afternoon Iwent to his home to tea. After a short drive from my home mychauffeur stopped at a large wall that had an opening justlarge enough for my car to pass through. The wall was all oftwo and a half feet thick and twelve feet high and on top, bed ded in the cement, were large pieces of broken glass which projected above the wall. As I had learned while travelling inforeign countries not to ask questions, I made no comment. When I found myself inside the high wall and the gates were securely fastened, there greeted me one of the most beautifulgardens I have ever seen. Smilingly I looked about and washelped out of the car by one of Mr. Ching's servants andescorted to the big house that stood majestically in the garden.The servant at the door very politely escorted me through a spacious hall into the large front or receiving room. In the hall a massive hand-carved stairway of teakwood led up to the topfloor. As this was the first Chinese home I had ever been in, itwas with some difficulty that I concealed my amazement, butI continued to smile and to give the impression that I was happy and pleased to be there.

The chair offered to me was dainty as could be, upholsteredin brocaded pink silk, and the framework was light and hand- carved. To be sure, it was not very comfortable; but it was, aswere all the other matching dainty pieces of furniture in theroom, a masterpiece of art. I had no more than been seated,than the servant left the room very politely, and closed the hall door silently. From another door, Mr. Ching made his appearance dressed in a gorgeous silk gown and a Chinese afternoon coat. Following him, bowing and smiling was one of hissix wives, the one that could converse in English. He greeted me by bowing and clasping his hands together, and so did his beautiful, cultured wife—for the Chinese do not shake hands.They think our custom of shaking hands is an awkward and uncouth way of greeting a friend. I do, too, since living inChina. A gracious bow is so much better, cleaner and nicer.

After this call, his whole family looked upon me as a friend.I spent many happy days in this home, and there learnedmuch about the Chinese way of living. Their innermost thoughts were passed on to me as if I were one of the family. One of the events that happened while I was there was the engagement of Mr. Ching's eldest son. InChina, when an engagement is announced, it is customary for the engaged couple to exchange presents, so I went with the Ching family toSoo Chow,China, where this was to be done.

As the Chinese really know the art of living they make quitea celebration when one of their children is going to be married. The engagement party lasted ten days. All of us were putup in the best hotel in Soo Chow and the friends of Mr.Ching's family lavished big, luxurious dinners upon us in theirhonor, also sightseeing trips and all sorts of shows and entertainments.

Mr. Ching's six wives and I would go over to a big temple in Soo Chow every morning, to Chin Chin Joss, as they called it.This was a paying of their respects to their choice saint andGod. As I knew these ladies quite well by now I could askthem anything I liked without embarrassment to either themor myself.

The first morning I went with them I was amazed to see thelarge Chinese figures in the temple. Mrs. Ching, who spokeEnglish, told me all about each statue as we lighted punksticks to ask the spirits' blessing. She told me that these statueswere not idols as so many foreigners think; that each one ofthese statues represented the spirit of a saint that once lived inChina and was sent by God to help the Chinese people andthat they did not worship them as idols. She said these statueswere here so we would never forget them and so that when wewere in trouble or in need we could come here and ask their help. She said the Catholic Church has its statues and pictures of its saints and they are used for the same purpose—to helpthem concentrate in prayer. She told me that some of thestatues were 5000 years old, and led me down long rows ofbronze figures, telling me the history ot each saint as wepassed along and placing incense sticks before them. Shewould tell me stories about a few every day. Before we left thetemple we would throw some coins in the big box that stoodin front of the high altar. I think this system of collectingmoney for the church is so much nicer than ours because it does away with the embarrassment that goes with having a collection basket put in front of you at church while the congregation nearest you watch to see how much you contribute.

At this Joss house, or temple, I met a Chinese priest. Hisname was Low and he welcomed me the same as the Chineseladies. He had a small square board on which was a design composed of little squares. He closed his eyes in meditation. Then he wrote in Chinese characters on a small piece of paperand handed one to each of us in turn. Mrs. Ching interpreted what he had written for me. To my amazement, everything hepredicted happened that day.

I became so interested in this priest's strange powers that I asked Mr. Kwan Tsi Ching about it. He went into great detailto explain that these temple priests were men who lived goodlives and who had studied to commune with the spirits that had passed on. He also said he knew a priest inShanghai,where he lived, who advised him on every business transaction he made. If the priest said it would be prosperous, hewould make the deal, but if the priest said it would fail, hewould let it go by. He told me that by taking the priest's advicehe had made millions of dollars, and in appreciation for thatadvice he supported a large orphanage, a church and his immense household. He then went into great detail to tell mehow much rice was cooked and consumed in his large community kitchen. I was astonished to find out how many relatives and friends he supported. He also told me that his religion meant "love they neighbor." I told him that I would liketo study under one of these temple priests and learn his secretsof prediction. Mr. Ching said if I were serious he would arrange it, but that there would be hard work and many trials if I were to learn their way of thought.

When the priest at Soo Chow heard I wanted to study hisreligion he said he would send a brother priest to teach me. Soone day, soon after, my head servant came to me and announced the arrival of the priest. My servant looked at mevery inquisitively and said in pidgin English, "This man said he sleep on floor in servants' quarters, have got bed." I asked "Have you no bed for him?" The boy said, "He no want bed.He sleep on floor. All same very poor man." I did not questionmy head servant, for I knew in the course of study with thepriest, I would find out why he wanted to sleep on the floor.

My study with the pleasing, refined old priest began. Inever knew a man could be so close to God. I learned the artof concentration and learned not to think evil and all the otherfine teachings that went with this religion. He taught me that one of the most beneficial things was not to hate anyone, for hate is a deadly poison.

In the course of my studies with the kindly old priest, Lee Ming, I learned many things that I shall never forget and alsoacquired a philosophy that money cannot buy. He would sit on my big porch in the warm summer evenings sipping teaand tell me of the things that were to happen in the next hundred years, warning me to look out for this or that which wasto happen. He remained at my home for three months. Upon leaving he would not accept a penny from me so I insisted on making a donation to an orphanage with which he was closelyconnected; also to his temple. Later, during a trip to theUnited States, I bought some American dolls, dressed themmyself, and sent them to him for the children in his orphanage. Afterward I went to the orphanage and saw the littleChinese children cherishing those same dolls. It would have made anyone's heart jump with joy to see the happiness a foreign doll could bring to one of those little children.

When I returned toAmericaI never forgot Lee Ming'steachings, and now, in our troubled world, I will try to passhis teachings along.

The reason I was inspired to make the fortune-telling game,GongHee Fot Choy, was to give the American people a littleof the fine philosophy of the ancient Chinese race.

While I studied with the priest Lee Ming, I compared our Christian religion with his teachings, and found our teachingsare somewhat similar to his. Lee Ming said that if there had been but one kind of Christian religion taught inChinaby one church, the Chinese by now would all have believed in Jesus Christ. But there were too many creeds sent toChina, such asthe Seventh Day Adventists, the Catholics, and all the others too numerous to mention, and they all taught differently. Andso the Chinese say, my mother taught me one way, yourmother taught you another way, and so many foreign religions another way. Who is right? Mr. Ming said the reasonJesus Christ manifested himself to the white race instead of tothe yellow, was because he knew the white race would neverbelieve in any religion of the yellow race, and that the Chinesebeing older and wiser and believing all good things possible would be more apt to embrace the Christian teachings.

Lee Ming died inChinain 1928, a very old man, and Mr. Kwan Tsi Ching died in 1932. The night Mr. Ching died, the vision came to me that he called me on the phone and told meof his coming death. A few weeks later a letter came fromChinatelling me he had passed on. To me they are not dead—they are alive and they often visit me and Lee Ming urges meto write his teachings so he can help my people.

EXCERPTS FROM MY BOOK PROPHECY

WRITTEN APRIL, 1941

The nations will bring about a sort of armistice to stop thewar for the time being, but not until great destruction hasbeen done. Then, as soon as the present generation dies andanother generation is raised, a new feud will spring up inEurope. The war will be resumed. But the next war will not bein my time. It will be in about forty years, andEurope's destruction will be accomplished by fire and poison gases asmost armaments will have been done away with and no morewill be built. There will not be a gun nor any of today's armaments used, but poison gases and fire will be secretly distributed in small egg-like balls; timed to open automatically andset the fire and gases free. Deadly and potent, they will bemixed with sweet perfumes, and no one will surmise they arenear until the whole ofEurope's population is dying. Therewill also be a destructive radio beam used to reach far-awayplaces. The implements used in war today will be as antiquated as the chariots of the past. Yes, theAmericaswill suffer from enemies within.

The destructive gases used in the next war will act like aboomerang and even destroy the nation that distributes them.This war will be the war of chemistry. The gas will be secretly developed in laboratories of the enemy. There will hardly be aliving thing left on earth. Then the yellow race, the Chinese, will rule the world; by that time Christianity will have circledthe earth and be preached everywhere— and then we shall seethe second coming of Christ. This will be a sad world whenthis present fighting has ceased. It is having its effect upon the children ofEuropenow, and their children will be the fathersand mothers of the nations to come, shell- shocked and full of fear, the white race will diminish in size. How can people saywe are civilized when we invent such things to destroy instead of helping mankind?

There should be a way to arbitrate our differences insteadof depending upon brute force. The countries ofEuropecould

unite in mutual helpfulness, such as exists between the statesof ourUnion. I should not like to see the different countriesbecome united as Hitler would have them, for it would take the charm, the culture, art and languages from theOld World. If they could get together and work in harmony, each countrymaking its contribution for the good of all, what a wonderful world this could be—contrasted with the destruction that is tocome.

Now is the time for all of us to band together as did the forefathers of our country so that we may stand shoulder toshoulder with our President and other national leaders in preserving our democratic form of government.

When others, within our borders, seek to stir up strife or resort to excitement let us keep calm. Obey the laws of God andour country more closely than ever. Be ready to help thosewho may need help and try to look on the brighter side of life.We should find comfort in the knowledge that God is with usso long as we strive to live as He would have us live.

When our country is called to defend those righteous principles for which it has always stood let us do our part even tothe giving of our lives if necessary. As your life or my life onthis earth is so brief and it is how we live here that countsmost, not how long we live. This is not our permanent home but it is the place in which God has put us to learn of His willconcerning us and thus be able to follow in His ways whichare the ways of peace.

This war, as all wars, has been brought upon the people because they have chosen to worship the material man-made golden calf in the form of the dollar. Man has persisted inbreaking God's laws is why we are being punished. When wesee a building fall, shattered by a bomb, we see the nothing ness of man made things. Take hope in the fact that we livedyesterday, we are living today and trust that in the tomorrowGod will continue to take care of us. Have faith in the futureand at this time pray that those who govern our nation will be given Divine Guidance. If we trust God, with the love and innocence of a child, He will guide us through the uncertaindays to come. However, prayer alone is not the answer.

God also requires deeds of kindness, etc. Love thy neighboras thyself. Think on these things and then know that peace, justice and harmony shall prevail for those who walk in HisWays. And all that He asks for this great abundance is Love.

In closing let me warn you that we have perilous timesahead.

Remember it is what you do today that counts in your nextlife.

Please read in your Bible the following passages:
Nahum 2: 3-5 II Timothy 3: 1-10

Habakkuk 1: 6-10 II Peter 3: 8-10

Habakkuk 2:5-8 Luke 12: 51-57

"Yoursons and daughters shall prophesy, and youryoung men shall see visions and your old men shalldream dreams."

Acts11:17

OThou, the Father of us all,

Whose many mansions wait,

To whose dream welcome each must come

A child, at Heaven's gate;

In that fair house not made with hands

Whatever splendor beams,

Out of Thy bounty keep for me

A little room for dreams.

R.U. Johnson,

"The Little Room of Dreams"

One of those passing, rainbow dreams,

Half light, half shade, which Fancy'sbeams

Paint on the fleeting mists that roll

In trance of slumber round the soul!

Thomas Moore, Lalla Rookh:"The Fire Worshipper"Pt.Ill, 1273

NUMEROLOGY

Many people asked me, when they learned I was preparing adream book, whether the subjects appearing in their dreamscouldn't also be interpreted numerologically. Indeed they can, and the number associated with each dream subject or symbol(or combination of subjects) can be taken as the dreamer's "lucky" number for the next day or two following the dream.

You will see that each dream subject inThe Meaning ofYour Dreamsis followed by a number. To arrive at thisnumber an alphabetical-numerical table, in which each letterof the alphabet is assigned a number from one to nine, is consulted:

A B C D E F G H I

J K L M N O P Q R

S T U V W X Y Z

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Therefore, if you dream of a cat you can turn to this table andtranslate the letters C-A-T into the numbers3-1-2. Thesenumbers added together equal 6. Thus 6 is the number to pay heed to in the next twenty-four to forty-eight hours followinga dream in which a cat figures prominently. Should youdream of more than one subject, and one most often does, youwould determine the one digit number for each subject in the way I have described; add those numbers together and then reduce them to a single-figure number. If you dream of a dog as well as a cat, you will add 4 and 6 and 7 to equal 17. Then will will add 1 and 7 to equal 8. Then you would add Dog's 8 to Cat's 6 to get 14. Finally you will add 1 and 4 to get 5. Thus5 would be your lucky number for the next two days, anumber to look out for.

No matter how many dream objects occur in a singledream, you can always determine your single-figure luckynumber in this manner. I have done the calculating for all the dream subjects included in this book, but no matter what youdream you can use this table to determine a lucky number.

THE MEANINGOF YOUR DREAM

ABACUS (2—The union of family or friend)To dream of an abacus indicates you have or will have a condition in your life soon that will puzzle you. To dream you canuse an abacus or are learning to use one, means you will overcome your future obstacles and profit by same.

PLANETARY HOUR GUIDE

My Chinese teacher in the Orient taught me that planetaryhours were very important to everyday life. To make them assimple as possible, so that anyone can understand and use them, I have given you here a brief Planetary Guide.

The astrological day begins at the exact moment of localsunrise, and the night begins at local sunset. The time betweensunrise and sunset is divided into twelve equal parts, each of which is called one planetary hour. Similarly the time from sunset to sunrise is also divided into twelve equal parts whichconstitute the planetary hours of the night.

The first planetary hour, starting from sunrise on any day, is ruled by the planet ruling the day itself. The succeedinghours are ruled by the planets in a definite and fixed succession, known as the Chaldean order, which is as follows:Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Sun, Venus, Mercury, and Moon. Thuson a Sunday the first hour from sunrise is ruled by the Sun, the next hour is ruled by Venus, the next by Mercury, the nextby the Moon, the next by Saturn, and so on in the same orderthroughout all the remaining hours of the day and night. It isa simple matter to work out the planetary hours for any givenday once the times of sunrise and sunset have been taken fromthe almanac, but for those who need merely a close approximation there are numerous mechanical devices on sale thatgive the commencing times of each hour for various latitudes and their planetary rulers at a glance. Therefore it is necessaryto know the times of sunrise in your own locality, since that tells us when the planetary day begins. The time of sunrise depends on the longitude of any given place, and of course itvaries with the seasons. However, thedifference in time at these various places does not change. Get your local time of sunrise each day as a starting point.

The planetary hour depends on the day of the week and the position of the sun during that day, and of course we know theposition of the sun is never the same in the various time zones.

Rat people are highly emotional andlavish with their affection; they are likely to have manylovers.Compatible signs: Monkey, Dragon, Rat.

OX

Outwardly patient and placid, the Ox, once crossed orangered, is unlikely to forgive or forget. Ox people are regularin their habits, and have a strong sense of direction. They aremodest and understated in manner, but can be plagued by the need to be perfect in everything they do. Ox men and womenare very devoted to home and family, and if you want afaithful partner you would do well to marry an Ox.

Itis best for Tiger people to marry later in life when they willprove to be faithful mates.Compatible signs: Dog, Horse,Tiger.

HARE

Hare (or Rabbit) people do well in speculation or games ofchance, but are often too conservative in nature to take advantage of this characteristic. Because they are objective,meticulous, and hold to traditional values, Hares are oftenattracted to careers as lawyers or diplomats. Hares can beshow-offs, and crave luxury and the gratification of sensualappetites. Rabbits are slow to form relationships but aretender and gentle and giving to loyal friends and mates. Butwatch out, spurn a Rabbit and love turns quickly to hate.Compatible signs: Goat, Boar, Hare.

DRAGON

Dragons are not always what they seem. They can appear tohave everything going for them, as love, success, and the respect of others come easily to them, yet they can be unhappy,insecure individuals. To compensate for feelings of inadequacy, Dragons can be bossy and opinionated. Dragon people possess leadership qualities and personal magnetism, but theyare advised to use these talents with discretion lest they offendtheir friends. Their exacting standards can lead to disappointments in love; Dragons tend to promiscuity in youth which can inhibit their ability to form lasting relationships.Compatible signs: Monkey, Rat, Dragon.

SNAKE

The Snake is glamorous and vivacious and seeks to associatewith others who enjoy the elegant life. While often sympathetic to those less fortunate, the Snake can be narrow-mindedand stingy. They are smart and talented but frequently reluc tant to put their brains and talents to good use. Snakes can appear calm and content, but they are sensitive—easily hurt anddeeply pained by rejection. They are very romantic and tendto be monogamous, but they can move quickly to a new loveaffair if the first one fails.Compatible signs: Ox, Rooster,Snake.

Those born in the year of the Horse are gregarious and fun-loving. They are generally very attractive and tend to be flamboyant in dress and manner.

MARGARETE WARD

October 16,1890—October 17,1977

In 1981, asGong Hee Fot Choy Tells Your Fortune wasrepublished in a new edition, bringing the total copies in printto 500,000, and as this expanded edition of theDream Book was being planned, we interviewed her husband of 49 years,Edward Arnold Winfield —The Publishers

Tell us about Margarete Ward's early years.

Margarete was a little over a year old when her mother and father died. I think it was during a flu epidemic in 1891. Ialmost died myself in the worldwide flu epidemic in 1918. Shewas raised by relatives—her stepfather's name was Ward too,and I think he was her father's cousin. He and his wife had two children of their own. Margarete considered them herhalf-brother and half-sister. Her stepfather worked for therailroad, he was the boss of the gang that works on therailroad. He would work one place along the tracks for six months or so and then move on, so the family lived all overwhen Margarete was growing up. She lived in Ohio, in Kan sas, in Cheyenne, Laramie, Salt Lake, Albuquerque, Needles. She lived in Denver, too; as close as I can figure it she was 10 years old then. She went to school there for a year or two with the nuns. They do a very good job of teaching, you know, and they helped her a lot. But, on account of all the moving, herschooling was broken up. She had very little formal education, though I think her stepfather did try to teach her a little.Her stepmother just sort of cracked the whip on her all thetime and Margarete had a lot of hard work to do when shewas a little girl.

When did she leave home?

They were in San Bernardino when she became of age. She16 or 18 and she got away from the family. The moviebusiness was just starting up. She met Mac Sennett, Ruth Roland, and Pearl White who played in all those old serialsthat leave you in a state of suspense so you'll come and see thenext one. She could have worked there if she wanted to, but she didn't go for that. She didn't like the movies, she mighthave been famous if she had.

So what did she do instead?

She went into partnership with another woman, modeling andselling dresses. I don't think she did any of the sewing, but she helped with the design of the dresses. She was in that businessuntil World War I was over and then she went to China, toShanghai. She'd always wanted to go to China and when she talked about it as a child, her stepmother used to get mad and slap her down. Her stepmother thought it was fool's talk.

She was in Shanghai until about 1925, as far as I can figure,working for selling and importing companies and sailing back and forth across the Pacific.

Did she speak Chinese?

No. She learned a few words and evidently she could speakenough to get along. Most of the business people she dealtwith spoke English, so she didn't really need to speak Chinese.The people she met and did business with in China liked her real well, and she liked it over there from the way she talked about it.

What did she do when she came back in 1925?

She went back to Los Angeles. She met Charlie Chaplin then,and Sid Grauman, the man who built all those theaters around L.A. She was the one who talked him into building theChinese Theater. She worked for him when he designed and built it and he paid her for helping with it.

When did you meet her?

We met in 1928 at the Ambassador Hotel. We metaccidentally. She had been living with some relatives, but when we met she had her own apartment on Oxford Street,and she had a police dog. It wasn't long after we met that we went to Reno and got married on April 23, 1928. She was 37then. I'd just about given up the idea of getting married butwith her it was quite different. We had similar tastes and therewas very little conflict.

Did she keep working after you were married?

Well, she had just written a story for Charlie Chaplin and waskind of freelancing that way. She was also working in realestate—she was in Texas on a real estate deal just before I met her. She was really an active woman.

After we were married, she was tired of traveling; she hadalready seen the world and she was ready to settle down.

Did she start writing then?

She had started to work onBom to the Purple before we weremarried and in the early '30s she decided to put the fortunetelling game(Gong Hee Fot Choy Tells Your Fortune)together. She wanted to do something that would be an accomplishment. I said go ahead and see if you can get someoneto print it. She got a company in L.A. to print the book and we put up all the money. I remember telling her that we wereputting hard-earned money into this (it was the Depression then, remember) and I wanted to proofread it myself. Theprinter didn't proof it at all, I made all the corrections. Iwanted to make it perfect but she said no. She said it was goodenough and so we went from there. It was first published in 1932 or 1933. I told her she was not charging enough for the book. The cost was $1, and the deluxe edition was $3.

How wasGong Hee Fot Choyreceived?

Oh, it was successful, it sold right off the bat. It was so successful that someone tried to copy it and went to the sameprinter. The other people never got anywhere with the game,but it caused some trouble between Margarete and the printer.When the first printer died, Margarete started filling orders herself. We'd take them down to the post office. Then a company in Chicago took it over for a year or two, before westarted printing it in Reno. That's when I started to figure out how many different arrangements of cards on the board werepossible, how many different fortunes there could be. Theprinter and I worked out the number and took it to many,many places. I found a book on algebra and it proved that wehad done it right.

When did she write theDream Book?

She did theDream Book right after the fortune telling game. And then she publishedBorn to the Purple, the book she wasworking on before we met. I still haven't read the bookthrough. She wrote poetry too. She planned on getting someof her poetry together for a book but her health was failingand she couldn't work like she used to. She would read herpoetry to me as she wrote it and I helped her with itsometimes. I thought I would complete and correct andpublish her poetry someday.

Did a lot of people want to talk to Margarete about herpsychic ability?

Yes, but it was a real drain on her. In L.A. they would say youwere doing it for the money and she didn't like that. Shewanted to print her book on prophecy but she was held backby the printer. I told her to be more forceful, but the printer didn't want to do it. But she knew the truth about things, sheknew it alright.

Did Margarete feel success in her life?

Yes, she felt a certain amount of success. She finished herbook and her game but she had visions of doing more. Peoplealways wanted her to demonstrate herGong Hee Fot Choyand she did a lot of that in department stores. She got a lot of fan mail which she always tried to answer. And a man in San Francisco wrote a song for her called "Margie."

What did she do for pleasure?

We used to make pleasure trips out of our business trips. She didn't like night clubs or that stuff. We didn't go to the moviesmuch, but after 1948 they started showing them on televisiona lot, so we watched television for pleasure. And she reallyliked her dogs.

Didn't she believe in reincarnation?

Yes, we both did. But she didn't like death at all. She would never go to any funerals, she always sent me. She thought she was going to die a lot of times. She was sick in the 1930s and then she got stronger. At the last she had arterial sclerosis andshe had had several strokes. When she was younger, death was horrifying but when death came to her she was not afraid because she had faith in what was after death. She stood up todeath perfectly. She was a very happy person.

A DREAM

By Margarete Ward

Some time during the nightMy soul wandered away

To a far distant land

Where I lived another day

I stopped there to gatherSome lotus flowers rare,

And watch the golden fishA swimming here and there

My friends were now waiting,And a good tiffin too;

Time flies, I had to goNothing else could I do

I was driving my carAs in days long ago

Going to a tiffinIn a cave far below

Many trees were holdingThis old swinging bridge;

I tripped over it lightlyFar away from the edge.

So I promised myself

I would return another dayTo walk over this bridge

And watch the fishes play.

The streets were so narrow I parked on a ledge

I had to pass overA rustic old bridge.

My arms full of flowers In this cool shady spot,

I hated leaving there,The tropic sun, was so hot!

Just then I awakened

By the mocking birds' callI found it was morning

And a dream after all.
