It matters not whether your dream lamp is gas, oil, or whatever but if it is lit and you are carrying it then you are assured of much prestige and success in your business dealings. If a lamp explodes in your dream then will your friends become your enemies through some thoughtless action on your part. The act of lighting the lamp presages an unexpected bounty or reward for you. If your lamp throws a dim light then you will have an illness or hear of a friend or relative with one. A broken lamp signifies much bad luck and must be taken as a major part of the rest of the dream in order to find out the misfortune you must try to avert.
