Ten Thousand Dream Dictionary

by Pamela Ball
1- Dreams about employment arc often more to do with what we consider our proper work to be. So if a housewife dreams of being a businesswoman, it may be showing that she needs to apply business methods in doing her job, whereas the other way round may indicate her secret yearnings to be a housewife. Since employment can also represent the way that other people think and feci about us, such a dream will tend to be about us assessing our own worth.

2- When we are fully employed our attention is very focused on what we are doing.

To dream of being employed can suggest that we need to focus our attention on work that creates satisfaction and gives us the lifestyle that we want.

3- Spiritual employment suggests using our talents and gifts effectively for the Greater Good.

The Big Dictionary of Dreams

by Martha Clarke
Job hunting in a dream predicts favorable changes in the professional field. Helping someone find one shows that you are solidary with others, though perhaps you are ignoring your own progress. Having a steady and well paid job suggests you should have a closer relationship with the environment and even think of a joint project with your partner. When you work hard in dreams it predicts that you will get rightly rewarded for your efforts.

If you are unemployed in the dream it means that you will soon receive a good contract offer.

Ten Thousand Dream Interpretation

by Gustavus Hindman Miller
This is not an auspicious dream. It implies depression in business circles and loss of employment to wage earners. It also denotes bodily illness.

To dream of being out of work, denotes that you will have no fear, as you are always sought out for your conscientious fulfilment of contracts, which make you a desired help. Giving employment to others, indicates loss for yourself. All dreams of this nature may be interpreted as the above.
