Housework – Housework is a basic fact of life for most people in the world, and often appears in our dreams. As a dream symbol, housework signifies the duties of our life – not just sweeping the floors, but also tending to our careers, nurturing our relationships, taking care of our children, and taking care of ourselves. Our feelings about housework in our dreams are often indicative of our feelings about our life’s work and responsibilities in our waking life. For instance, if you dream about housework being a drudgery and an exhausting chore, it is likely that you have relationships that are suffering, or you are not happy in your career. On the other hand, if you dream of taking pride in your housework and receiving pleasure in it, this indicates contentment with the day-to-day aspects of your life.
