FISHERMAN

Spiritual Meaning:
Because of its Christian connection a fisherman can symbolize a priest or holy man in dreams. Equally, he is one who has the patience to sit out a situation without anticipating any particular outcome.

Psychological / Emotional Perspective:
We may be trying to ‘catch’something, such as a job or a partner.

Everyday Material Aspects:
Whenever one of our dream figures is carrying out a specific action we need to look at what is represented by that action. Often a fisherman will represent a provider, or perhaps bravery, as with a deep-sea fisherman, whilst a fresh water fisherman may indicate the need for rest and recuperation.
