娱乐性解释:
To dream that you are a usurper, foretells you will have trouble in establishing a good title to property. If others are trying to usurp your rights, there will be a struggle between you and your competitors, but you will eventually win. For a young woman to have this dream, she will be a party to a spicy rivalry, in which she will win.
