ESSAY : What is the symbolic meaning of money in dreams?
Money, coins, and cash in general can link to things that we see as valuable. This has several meanings and you should look for the precise meaning. It may link to an issue involving effort, an issue linked to self worth or it may refer the need to be respected or valued by others.

Money can often link to the effort you wish to put into something. If we value something then we will show effort. The more money then the more effort we are willing to put in. E.g.

"If I put just a little EXTRA EFFORT into it I am sure that people will appreciate it"[Dream symbol - spending just a little more money dream][the dream this quote is based upon is featured in full at the end of this article]

"I just want to MAKE A LITTLE EFFORT to show how important my coworkers are to me"[Dream symbol - giving away money dream]

"I really do like to keep busy. It really is important to keep my mind occupied. I do like to put in the maximum effort"[Dream symbol - parcel stuffed full of money dream]

Money is symbolic of value and in that can link to issues surrounding self worth or the value of one person above another. E.g.

"well its obvious that people have not agreed with him. He can criticize me all he likes but what he is saying is just his opinion and is probably WORTHLESS anyway"[Dream symbol - cashier in empty cafe dream]

"Who is to say that one person is more VALUABLE than another. The majority of CV's are just a collection of total lies"[Dream symbol - money factory/mint dream]

"I really think that my former boss appreciated me and valued my contribution to the company. But I found out yesterday that he would never have me back"[Dream symbol - Benefactor dream]

Money can simply symbolise something that is of value in the eyes of others. E.g.

"I know that if she is going to listen and VALUE MY ADVICE. I have got to say things in a diplomatic way. If I offend her she will simply ignore me"[Dream symbol - money dream]
----------------------------------
DREAM TIP : Dreams tend to be very much linked to the here and now. Most dreams will link to your feelings about events that happened the previous day. If something important is happening on the next day then the dream maybe about your feelings as you look forward to that. Dreams can also be about long term issues regarding our lives such as relationships, our own personality and our job. But those long term issues will probably have some special connection to the previous day.

SAMPLE DREAM
----------------------------------
THE DREAM - There are thoughts going through my head. They replay a radio interview I heard in real life a few days before. In it a sports reporter was saying that extra money spent on sports reports from cricket matches was of great value to the reader. It manages to sell a lot more papers. That really was valued

THE REALITY The dreamer was at the time writing a report for work. He took extra time over the report and carefully thought out each section instead. Overall he just put a lot of effort and care into what he was doing.

THE INTERPRETATION The dream was simply about a radio report interview which had had an effect on the dreamer. The message is that you should take pride in your work and take time over details. Some dreams contain symbols which together make up a message. But this dream was of a story which itself was a metaphor. Its simple message was heard in real life and repeated in the dream world. His dream mind had decided to follow this principle and so the dreamer took a bit more time over a report he had to write. The extra effort paid off and he was praised.

Symbolic Meaning
MONEY : "Putting some extra effort into this report "

DREAM MEANING The dream captures the following feeling within the dreamer - "I think its really worth taking a bit of care with my work. If you put some extra effort into something then it can pay off. It shows that you enjoy your job".
