Father of humanity, upon whom be peace. In a dream, Adam represents the elements of sin and repentance. He also represents one's father or the governor of the land. When seen standing nobly, Adam also represents attainment and honour. If Adam addresses the person in question in the dream, it means that the latter will acquire knowledge. If one becomes Adam or a companion of his, and should he qualify for such promotion, it means that he will attain it. Adam also represents the element of temporal existence. Seeing him in a dream also implies understanding, for he was the first to see dreams in this world and to interpret the names of things. Adam also represents reunion with one's family, concerns, forgetfulness, and worries.
