Dream of Working

[MOLA]

Hello.

This may be a complex one to decipher because I don't have any specific details than the surroundings of my dream(s). Any possible meaning these consecutive dream(s) may have is greatly appreciated!

Lately I've been having dreams consecutively where I 'see' myself working. I see my working environment.

What could this mean? I apologize for not being able to provide much details other than the setting because I have a hard time recalling them. I am rather frustrated to have these dreams because it leaves me exhausted in the morning. I am rather tired of work lately and to have these dreams when I sleep is understandably exhausting and frustrating.

Thank you!

for your dreams to be a viewing of yourself at work implies a degree of
distance from the scene. the first thought i'd had was that you're doing
"double-duty", meaning that your work is furthering your physical life,
and also addressing your spiritual needs in some way. a second possibility
is quite opposite to that: the dreams may be showing you as expending
great efforts, but making little or no headway in advancing your wishes.
in either case, you probably need a break of some kind... do something
relaxing and ponder on things that give you frivolous joy for a while.

Your work situation is the most pressing thing on your mind right now so you are dreaming about it. Getting more detail about what is happening may help you sort out why you are troubled by your job. Maybe it's merely what Horace said, you are burnt out and need a break.

Thank you for taking the time to interpret this!

Although that I am somewhat disappointed that my work at the moment is at a standstill (going nowhere), it is stable. Stability is what I need while I am pursuing to possibly start my own business. The problem is that I am extremely burned out and while I am slowly (but surely) reducing the workload that I am doing, I am having a difficulty in identifying what it is that I truly want to do.

I try not to think about this but my dreams just has to remind me that I am working there. I don't hate it that much, its just very repetitive and I can feel my mental health decreasing working there.

whatever work you're gonna become involved with will likely be repetitive;
that's what work amounts to it seems, doing x,y,and z over and over again.
what you're looking for is probably not just new x,y,z's, but new kinds of
x,y,z's... something that will provide you with the excitement of learning
new things, and accomplishing tasks that had challenges in them ("stability"
isn't very exciting).
of the dreams you'd said:
"I 'see' myself working. I see my working environment."
this, to me, seems to be saying that you're applying the same mentality in
your spiritual work [which happens in dream-time] which you've applied in
waking life work. that's what needs to change for you -- you need to
allow your dream work to step outside of the box that you've placed your
mind in. relax. take a break from things. a vacation would suit you. maybe
try some aromatherapy. and give yourself permission to experience some
failures along the way... those are the opportunities for learning.

For the love of me, I've read this bolded part over and over again throughout the course of the day and I still can't properly interpret this. Please elaborate further.

lol, i've had people tell me that they've reread my stuff several times over before...
something about that is flattering, but it may also just be that i'm a poor communicator.


the idea i was trying to convey was that your mind is searching for expansion.
you may have become too focused, and gotten yourself stuck in a rut.
same-old, same-old can lead to burnout.
allow yourself to entertain some extraneous thoughts a bit more.
