Father-in-law in a dream
A father-in-law in a dream is read as respect, family support and the wish to be taken in by another home as one of its own.
In the folk view, a father-in-law is the head of the house your chosen one came from, so in a dream he is tied to respect and to words that carry weight. A dream about him is believed to speak of your wish to be accepted and valued in the wider family. If he was cheerful, relations are read as harmonious. If he was silent, it only means some conversation is waiting for a suitable moment. The dream reminds you that trust is built through small, everyday gestures.
