Gallows

Gallows can be defined as a wooden frame - this is ultimately used for execution by hanging. Obviously, this is rather disturbing in a dream.
It may have been either someone you know hanging from the gallows or yourself. Even though this dream is rather disconcerting to see gallows in your dream is a positive omen. It denotes both promotion in society and possible financial gain. Gallows also suggest that you may go through a disagreeable period in your life, but this will end favorably, especially if you acknowledge your own failures and keep moving forward in your endeavors. To see more than one person in the gallows means that you may want to act against your enemies and adversaries, who are hindering your progress.
