FACTORY

A factory in your dreams is likely to refer to conformity with society, a typical reaction to a life that lacks individuality, productivity and work. In some cases, it can also refer to the automatic functions of the body, such as breathing and digestion. A factory on strike may suggest an obstacle to hard work, such as lack of discipline. An endless production line clearly suggests frustration with your career or relationships. A dream of waterworks can suggest associations with water and the womb, turning the dream into a gigantic representation of the mother figure in your life. A dream of being confined in a barracks may be a warning that your life is too restricted, and that you are too much under the influence of someone else.

If you dream of a warehouse or other storage place, this suggests memories, past experiences or aspects of yourself that you have put on hold; for example, career ambitions whilst you raise a child.

Vision: Seeing a factory is a good sign, promising business success. Working in a factory: you are dealing with a tense situation: things are hectic, but overall you are satisfied with your job.

If you are the owner of the factory: you are spending great amounts of money and getting little in return.

A smoking factory chimney is a sign of your sexual desires.

Depth Psychology: The factory is a symbol of new plans at the expense of peace and quiet. Are you on automatic pilot? Would you like to change that?

A factory is ultimately a building in which something is built or made.

The building itself then is a symbol of a clear foundational structure of thoughts, ideas, or a belief system that exists within your psyche. What is created in the factory provides an important distinction when considering such a dream. Whatever the factory makes offers the primary clue to your interpretation. Then recognize that whatever meaning you attribute to that, there is a great deal of permanence to that belief system or idea.
