Dreaming of a Chair

chair, armchair, stool · mixed

A chair signals a missed obligation and a risk of losing your place, but sitting in one promises a growing family or better times.

What happens in the dream

  • Sitting on a chair: a growing family, or a marriage soon if you are single
  • Sitting in a rocking chair: your situation will soon improve
  • A chair: you'll fall short on an obligation, and could lose your best positions if you're careless
  • A friend sitting motionless in a chair: news of their illness or death

How you felt

  • A need for rest: the dream often mirrors a wish to take a breather
  • Fear of losing your place: it may reflect worry about your position

Ask yourself

  • Am I afraid of losing my place somewhere?
  • Where can I finally sit down and breathe?
