Vow
To dream that you are making or listening to vows, foretells complaint will be made against you of unfaithfulness in business, or some love contract. To take the vows of a church, denotes you will bear yourself with unswerving integrity through some difficulty.

To break or ignore a vow, foretells disastrous consequences will attend your dealings.
