Dreaming Lens: Were you living on a farm, visiting one, or was your connection to the farm unclear? What season was it? What type of farm? Were animals present? Was it current time, or a past era?
Personal Focus: A farm represents the production of food and the capacity to provide nurturance through abundance on a large scale. Evoking images of serenity and simplicity, they hearken back to a connection to the land that is all but forgotten in our current culture and history. However, they can also connect to the decay of the family-based agrarian culture that once thrived, but has slowly become obsolete in the face of corporate consolidation.
Working on a farm points to a call to action to dig deeper and take responsibility for getting your needs met. Owning a farm connects to how responsible you are to your self-nurturing and perhaps the dependence of others upon you for such needs. If you can eat only that which you plant and tend, then farms connect to taking (or not taking) responsibility for your personal needs and how you get them addressed.
A specific farm crop could afford you some additional texture to your meaning. A dairy farm might connect to emotional matters, maternal concerns, and thoughts around children. A farm that slaughters animals suggests more substantial issues around taking care of sustenance. Slaughter and sacrifice relates to having to let go of something in order to receive something else and, therefore, achieve balance. An organic farm points to radical measures urging you toward a healthier approach to meeting your needs. If you actually live on a farm, or connect to one in some way in your waking life, this will require you see the farm in your dream through the Personal Focus of your specific experience.
