The Complete Guide to Interpreting Your Dreams

by Stearn Robinson - Tom Corbett
A dream of a black- smith working at a forge is a prediction ‘of steady prog- ress in your ambitions; a cold forge signifies disap- pointment.

If you were working at the forge your- self, it indicates some money troubles which you can overcome by a little extra effort; however, if the main feature of your dream was the glow of the fire and/or the sparks rising from the forge, it is a warning of domestic and/ or lovers* quarrels on the horizon, so try to control your temper.
