Post office in a dream
Folk tradition reads a post office in a dream as news and messages traveling to you, or from you to others.
Old dream books tie a letter to news, so a post office in a dream is read as the place where tidings meet. In folk belief the dream announces word from someone who has not written for a long time, or an invitation that will delight you. Sending a letter means you have something to say yourself. A parcel is read as a surprise. This dream is believed to remind you to get in touch with those you care about, because a kind word never arrives too late.
The most common dreams
Dreaming of mailing a letter at the post office
It is read as a wish to tell someone what you have long carried inside. People say your words will be warmly welcomed.
Dreaming of picking up a parcel
In folk belief a pleasant surprise is on its way to you. The dream does not reveal what is in the parcel, but it says you will be glad.
Dreaming of the mail carrier at your door
Old dream books say news is coming straight to your address. Most often it is word from a relative or a friend you have not seen in a long time.
Dreaming of sticking a stamp on an envelope
You are wrapping up something you have been preparing for a long time. It is believed only the last and easiest step remains.
These interpretations come from folk tradition and are meant for fun; they do not predict the future and are not advice for life decisions.
