One of those dreams that may not have meaning unless there was novelty in it or the desire to create something unusual, a strange coincidence of circumstances.
Usually, the dream book of your former boss, which you dreamed about a week after your dismissal, does not interpret it, since one of the main adaptation mechanisms is activated.
The same thing happens after graduating from school, where you find yourself after graduation, although you know for sure that you will no longer study there and are unlikely to visit your class teacher after receiving your certificate.
In the same way, in a dream, a person continues to travel to his old job until he finds a new one or gets used to it.
However, there are dreams that can have meaning. Therefore, if you dreamed about your former boss unexpectedly, then you should pay attention to this dream. Especially if you notice something unexpected, unusual or even strange.
It is also worth paying attention to what the dreamed director or manager looked like and what he said - this can provide important information about the future. This is what the former boss most often dreams about.
Why the former boss dreams: opinions from dream books
To begin with, let’s immediately distinguish between two types of dreams: in the first, you see a person who previously acted as your boss. Moreover, in a dream he can play absolutely any role. In the second, you clearly realize that in front of you is your former boss, and his role can be played by any person - a really familiar one or some vague image. Dream books interpret only the second type of dreams. Therefore, further we will only talk about dreams in which the “former boss” is a social role, and not a real person.
According to Loff’s dream book, a former boss indicates that in reality you are excessively responsible for some person. And he is happy to sit on your neck (figuratively, of course).
According to Miller's dream book, a former boss in a dream is a clear sign that you are not satisfied with your current financial situation. The dream speaks of unsatisfied ambitions and a thirst for recognition.
Interpretation of dreams from the Islamic dream book
The Islamic dream book gives several conflicting interpretations. A single man is promised a wedding: “then he became Amir in his house,” and he will have to accept the responsibilities of the head of the family.
To be a boss is a bad vision, the danger of imprisonment.

Place of action in a dream
Did a former manager appear in a work environment in a dream? This means that a short trip awaits you in the near future. Pay attention to the mood of the ex-boss - if he is happy and happy, then the trip will be easy and pleasant. But a gloomy or angry boss predicts troubles along the way, hitches and all sorts of complications along the way. However, the esoteric dream book interprets this image a little differently. If you dreamed of your former boss in a work “scenery”, then in reality you should slightly reduce your level of productivity - you have almost reached the limit and risk overworking. This will not end well either for your health or for your career.
The former boss is an infrequent guest in dreams. But if it appears, then you can try to take advantage of the dream - interpret it and prepare for future trials.

Why does the former boss dream: interpretation from popular dream books
When a person often has dreams about his recent workplace, former boss and colleagues, then some problems from the past continue to influence his present. Such dreams, as a rule, also speak of overwork, unresolved conflicts and troubles. To determine what your ex-boss dreams about, you need to pay attention to the details of the dream and look into popular dream books.
Psychological dream book
The psychological dream book explains more subtly, probing the subconscious, what the former director is dreaming about.
An ordinary conversation with a manager - you will soon have to go through anxiety and excitement. An official conversation that turns into a reprimand promises a lucrative offer. For a businessman or aspiring leader, such a plot promises success.
To get to the top - in reality it’s time to become more careful, they can be taken by surprise. Interpretation option: the struggle will be long, grueling, and will not bring success.
Informal atmosphere, light casual conversation, festive atmosphere - the dreamer will remain alone in a difficult situation. Circumstances are against you, the enemy is strong, it is advisable to resign yourself and not waste your efforts in vain.
Why does a girl dream about the former director? A vision of leadership is an almost useless dream; your financial situation will improve a little.
Forecaster David Loff believes that relationships with management in a dream must be interpreted in 2 ways.
The first option: “a loved one becomes a boss.” Spouses, brothers, parents, and good friends are important for the vision. Subconsciously, the dreamer is afraid of growing influence, believes that he is being pressured, that every step is being controlled. A soft, non-conflict attitude provokes an increase in pressure and increases submission. The place of work in a dream is interpreted as an area of control and discomfort.
The second option: “the boss becomes a close relative, a spouse,” the relationship moves from the official level to the personal, family level.
Close interaction, unsolicited family relationships with a colleague or manager are a bad sign; the dreamer does not see the reality behind the work. It's time to reevaluate priorities regarding service and family. Workaholism can destroy love and relationships.
Work is displacing loved ones, which means it’s time to return it to its rightful place and evaluate the losses, also emotional ones. Colleagues helping in a dream is a good sign, all is not lost, the dreamer needs the support of family and friends. Mental resources are depleted.
Seeing a manager busy with everyday work is a sign of stress caused by the work environment.
To summarize: banal dreams about everyday work are a sign of overwork, annoying deadlines, and psychological burnout.
General interpretation
If a person periodically dreams of his previous job and former boss, this indicates that in the near future the mistakes and sins of his youth will again appear before the dreamer. It is necessary to carefully analyze your own past actions and determine what exactly can disrupt the calm flow of affairs.
In the case when such a picture appears once and does not evoke any emotions, the dream has no special meaning. The sleeper needs to relax: tension and fatigue take their toll. The best option would be to take a short vacation.
The image of the boss
The night plot can have several developments. Close people or relatives of the dreamer can act as the former director. Depending on these details, the vision is interpreted differently:
- A close friend appeared in a dream in the role of a former leader - the sleeper feels pressure from this person in real life. Perhaps he is trying to control the dreamer’s actions, to command him. It is necessary to remember the location of the action in a dream, which will indicate the area of life where the friend is most intrusive.
- If the leader appears in the form of a woman, then this promises a quick meeting with a powerful woman in reality.
- A relative has taken on the image of a recent leader - you need to think about whether work is taking up all your free time, or whether it is causing quarrels in the family. A different interpretation suggests that perhaps the sleeper misses his previous place of work and would not mind being restored to his previous position.
- A stranger appeared in a dream in the role of a former director - there are reasons why the dreamer is dissatisfied with his current job. This picture promises a change in activity.
- If the dreamer himself appears in the image of his former boss, then his ambitions are completely justified. It is recommended to show more persistence and strength to achieve the desired results.
Important details
If the image of your previous place of work and boss appears quite often at night, then it makes sense to analyze the vision in detail. When interpreting, it is necessary to take into account the actions, state of the boss and other nuances of sleep:
Freudian meaning
The father of psychoanalysis believes that if you dream of your former boss at work, then you should expect favorable events. The vision predicts a long, healthy and prosperous life. A plot in which you happened to quarrel and swear with him speaks of increased concern about your own well-being . In reality, the dreamer may have a premonition that problems have arisen with his health. Don't delay your visit to the doctor. It is necessary to undergo a full examination and begin timely treatment.
The emerging image of the former director in a dream also indicates shaky family relationships. A tense atmosphere and constant quarrels disrupt the calm flow of life. I dreamed of a fight with the former leader - a sign of betrayal. The sleeping person is surrounded by a person who constantly deceives him, spreads unflattering rumors behind his back and tries to harm him in every possible way.
Dream Interpretation of Fedorovskaya
Fedorovskaya’s dream book is replete with various interpretations. Detailed transcript:
- normal conversation - there will be problems at your current job;
- the offer to return to the old place is deciphered directly: the dreamer in reality experiences a similar desire;
- quarrel, conversation in a raised voice - a reprimand threatens;
- office drinking - income will increase, perhaps they will give a bonus;
- to get a leadership position - the opposite interpretation, in reality there is a threat of demotion, trouble, reprimands;
- a close relative has risen to the position of leader - a series of family troubles and scandals lie ahead;
- beat up the former management - they will soon pay a bonus, dividends, an unexpected one-time side income will appear, for example, a won lottery;
- hugging the former boss - the dreamer is ambitious, wants a better place, higher;
- at a new job, the bosses with the old one - problems of self-esteem, uncertainty, unformed desire for support and support.
Such dreams are considered to be a reflection of a disturbing reality. They manifest and indicate the dreamer’s main problems. Thanks to careful decoding, it becomes possible to resolve them.
Miller's Predictions
According to Miller's interpretations, such a nightly plot is evidence of attachment to the past, previous place of work and company employees. If in a dream a meeting with a former boss happens by chance, then in real life you should expect unexpected news from a close friend located in another country.
If you happen to receive a reprimand from your boss, this indicates the dreamer’s unbalanced character. This trait interferes with the timely performance of one's duties. If you dream about being fined by your boss from your previous place of employment, this means financial difficulties .
However, if you still did not have to make a payment, then some kind of victory awaits the sleeper. Achieving praise from your boss in a dream means excellent prospects, good luck that should not be missed.
Predictions of the modern dream book
Talking with your former boss, discussing problems, receiving valuable advice in return - experiencing doubts about your competence. The dreamer experiences self-doubt and does not trust his own judgment, so he artificially inhibits the development of skills and the resolution of work issues. This uncertainty also harms colleagues, friends, and family.
The modern dream book says: if you dreamed of a former boss who was biased and had a bad attitude, there will soon be a truce with your enemies. The peaceful initiative will come from the opposing side.
Prophecy for a man and a woman
If a woman dreams of a former boss or a man at work, then in reality she should expect a promotion or a cash bonus. A naked boss means financial difficulties. Kisses and hugs with the head of the previous place of duty predict dismissal from work or the emergence of financial problems. It is possible that the lady’s ambitions are somewhat exaggerated. Taking the place of the former boss yourself means getting married soon.
If the image of a former leader often appears to a sleeping person, this indicates that the person is very concerned about the changes that have occurred in the personal and professional sphere. It is recommended to learn to listen to yourself and trust your own intuition. It is necessary to act as a person’s knowledge and beliefs dictate, one should become an authority for oneself, and not look for this trait in other people.

Interpretation of sleep according to Miller
Any “former,” according to Miller’s interpretation, is a greeting from the past, a reminder. An accurate deciphering of a dream requires remembering the details, the shades of the mood of the dreamed boss, and the circumstances of the meeting.
- The usual conversation is to be bored, to crave previous responsibilities. For some reason, the dreamer’s current place of service does not satisfy him; he seeks consolation in a familiar one.
- Meeting your boss outside of work means expecting good news from missing friends.
- The bosses praised me - fresh prospects will appear, career growth is possible.
- Dragging, scandal, reprimand: you should choose your words carefully at home, there is a high risk of provoking a quarrel.
- Finding yourself fined or receiving a penalty: threatens you with financial problems in reality. A businessman must be wary of the breakdown of negotiations and deals.
- Kiss the director (headmistress) - the dreamer will make a mistake in the documentation, a scandal is coming.
Often dreaming about bosses is a bad sign. Fear interferes with work, adequate perception of superiors, reconsider your attitude.
