prostitute

Dreaming Lens: Were you a prostitute or were you soliciting a prostitute? Was the prostitute female or male or somewhere between female and male? What were your judgments in the dream around prostitution? Was it a street hooker or high-class call girl?

Personal Focus: The essence of prostitution is making public that which is ordinarily considered private. They say “money can’t buy you love,” but it can indeed buy you sex, which can be a substitute for love and intimacy. The challenge with prostitution lies in the judgments we place on selling something as intensely personal as one’s body, and the act of performing sex for money. This makes it something intensely impersonal.

If you dream of being a prostitute you may be experiencing something in your waking life that is pointing toward a sense of selling out or taking the easier, softer way through some challenge. If you are hiring a prostitute you may want to look at that part of you that is willing to sell yourself short. If there is prostitution around you in the dream, notice your sense of connection to the concept: if you are in judgment or fear, maybe consider the idea that there is a lack of integrity in the way that you are handling some person or situation. A more open attitude toward prostitution might point to a need for a more careful appraisal of your self-judgment, whether it be too severe or whether you might benefit from utilizing more discretion with your choices.

No matter what your belief system, on some level, prostitution leaves a legacy of shame, which is really the essence of this symbol in the dream. Is the price you are paying for your freedom worth it?

To be paying a prostitute may suggest that we do not trust our own sexual abilities.

To be paid for the sexual act may suggest that we feel relationships will cost us. In both cases there may be a fear of loving relationships.

2- In dreaming of prostitution, we may actually be connecting with a poor self-image. We are minimising our abilities and talents this may be in a work situation as much as in our personal life. Very often, when we are cxpcctcd to ‘perform’, inadequacy or ego makes us feel that we are ‘prostituting’ our talents.

3- In Christian terms, just as Christ recognised the value of the prostitute as a person in her own right despite her profession, we also spiritually need to accept other people’s values.
