Dream About Getting Fired
What do dreams of getting fired mean? Being fired in a dream represents your anxiety at work. It is connected to the stresses and strains of work but also how you communicate with others.
This dream can also be associated with feeling isolated in daily life. Research has shown that 75% of America dreams about work every year - especially males. So, you cannot escape the work meetings, schedules, and office computers in your sleep! Dreaming of being fired can be connected to the fear and feeling of subconsciously thinking that this might actually happen in daily life. So many of our dreams are common when it comes to working.
They are associated with a hybrid of our needs and wants in life. It can be associated with removing ourselves from our job altogether and retraining. To have a recurring dream of being fired can indicate an unresolved issue at work. The dreamer may be trying to communicate with their own subconscious mind. To try to uncover the root of a problem. Maybe ambition is not being fulfilled?

From a subconscious perspective being fired in a dream might just be a “fear” dream.
What does it mean to dream of losing your job?
These generally dream about your anxieties. The dream is about your own ego. The ego is part of our whole self and dreaming of losing a job can represent egotism and difficulty in communicating and trusting others in daily life. On the other extreme the dream of losing your job can be regressive by your own objective criticism. Being fired in a dream can be unsettling and normally this dream is associated with defending yourself. If you have something important related to your job coming up, such as an interview, a presentation, or performance review the dream can be connected to your own fears. On a small number of occasions, this dream can predict that you are feeling (subconsciously) not secure in your job, and often these types of dreams appear when you are worried about your performance at work.
