Commerce (buying, selling, renting) Dream Meanings

Dreaming Lens: Were you the buyer or the seller? What was being purchased? Was the transaction a final sale or an agreement to rent or lease? Were you comfortable with the details of the transaction? Were you in control?

Personal Focus: Commerce and the concept of fair trade are the feminine principle in action. While the masculine principle demands that we simply take what we want or need, the balancing energy of giving something in order to get something in return relates to the feminine. In this way, a commitment to integrity is established and the character trait of fairness is created.

Because buying implies permanence, purchasing holds more weight than renting. You will also have to consider which of the two sides of the transaction you are on. If you are selling, you are letting go. If buying, you are choosing to pick something up or discovering a need. If you feel that you are being fairly treated, then a balance is likely being struck. If you are unhappy with the settlement, then there may be a message that equity is lacking in some area of your life. And finally, what price are you paying or getting? The dream transaction is inviting you to look at how much you value or undervalue yourself in your waking life.
