A verdict in a dream suggests that a judgement from a more spiritual source has become relevant. The spiritual law of cause and effect results in a ?ruling? being made. To dream we are on trial and a verdict has been given means that we have become aware that we have been judged, perhaps by our own moral code, perhaps by others. When we feel subject to scrutiny or judgement by others in waking life, perhaps having done something that could get us into difficulties, in dreams judges, courts and juries may hand down a verdict on our behaviour.

Authority, or a decision by an authority. Dreaming that you are on trial and a verdict is handed down can mean you're feeling subject to scrutiny or judgment by others somehow in your real life. You may also have done something you could get in trouble for or that will bring you bad karma. Take inventory of any irresponsible or dishonest things you've done and make amends (apologize or take other action to make things right).
