Farmers represent all that is material, practical, down to earth and instinctive.
If you dream of a farm or a farmer, are you focusing on the rewarding side of farming, symbolized by the harvest, or the tough side, such as the slaughtering of animals? Try to decide how your dream applies to your waking life. Are you struggling to survive harsh and difficult times, or reaping the benefits of your hard work? If the person on the farm is specifically a shepherd, this represents being in touch with your instincts. A gardener in your dream is generally a positive symbol that reflects on your aspirations for the future. Dreams of planting seeds suggest the planting of new ideas, and picking fruit the rewards of experience.
If you dream of miners, this suggests a desire to explore the unconscious to discover precious insights.
