Dream about laundry – detailed interpretation

What does it mean when you dream about laundry?

Laundry is a part of life, thus, of course, dreams about laundry are common. Many surprising symbols appear in them.

What it means to dream about washing clothes

If in a dream you see a washing machine, or perhaps a large pile of clothes that need washing, it means that the subconscious tells us to take a look at our daily life and examine which areas need improvement (“washing”). From such a dream we can learn how to solve some of our daily problems!

Plenty to do!

If you dream about laundry or see piles of laundry in your dream, you are most likely thinking about your never-ending to-do list.

You may have meetings you need to go to and aren’t sure how you’ll fit them into your busy schedule. You are bored with routine activities. This usually means you need a change of pace and something more interesting to help you be happy in life.

This might be a good time to consider a career change or even move to a new place where you will find exciting and positive challenges.

You feel that others are judging you

It’s embarrassing when you have a laundry basket full of socks and none of them match. And others see this and criticize it. In fact, we often feel like we’re being judged, even when we’re actually not. Most people rarely treat us as harshly as we treat ourselves, especially when we compare ourselves to others.

Comparison is the thief of joy. – Theodore Roosevelt

If we want to be happy, we must realize that it doesn’t matter what others think. If deep down you know who you are and that you are doing the right thing, you have nothing to fear.

Feeling guilty: is it time to come clean?

Laundry is often associated with cleaning – and if you are guilty of a crime or doing wrong, it is probably a sign that you are aware of an impure conscience.

While clothes in dreams usually symbolize our outward appearance, washing them means that we are trying to cleanse and fix our faults.

Ask yourself: is there something from my past that I am trying to correct? Am I seeking the approval or forgiveness of others? Do I have guilt over something I may have no control over?

Are you ready and prepared?

The sight of piles of neatly stacked clothes and towels can mean that you are organizing your affairs and are prepared for anything. You may feel great satisfaction seeing neatly stacked shirts, pants, and dresses, or all the things hanging on hangers.

Sometimes it means that you feel that you are not prepared for something or for something.

Most dream symbols are exactly what they seem – but sometimes the opposite can be true. Pay attention to what you think about the arrangement of objects. If you feel that you can’t keep up with putting them together, you are not ready for something. If you are comfortable in your dream, you are confident and able to succeed no matter what happens.

A dream about laundry sometimes can also mean that we need to start organizing our lives. Do you have everything “organized” in it?

Additional dream meanings of dreams about washing clothes

When you have a dream it is important to consider the context of the dream symbol itself. A pile of laundry that is dropped under the stairs certainly has a different meaning than the sight of personal clothes hung up or scattered around the room.

Dream about clothes drying on a string

Think of your dream in which you were drying your underwear on a string. Was it a peaceful and happy scene in the countryside? It could mean that you feel great satisfaction and contentment. You feel as if your needs have been met, and you are calm and satisfied with your situation.

If in your dream you see laundry hanging on a line and are terrified that everyone can see it, you are probably very nervous about work. You may feel as if someone is betraying you or worry that your personal secrets may soon be discovered. Or maybe it’s time for the truth to come out?

Dream about a pile of laundry

This is a dream indicating that you are feeling overwhelmed and neglecting key areas of your life due to an overwhelming workload. You may feel as if you are stressed and unable to keep up and meet the demands placed on you.

Sometimes this may mean that you are trying to organize and reorganize your current life. Perhaps you are restructuring in business, or maybe you are thinking of ways to improve efficiency and productivity.

Dream about putting clothes in the dryer

Wet clothes need to be dried. Most washers and dryers spin clothes in cycles, so in this dream, it is possible that the washer and dryer are symbolic of cyclical events that happen often.
Have you ever dreamed about washing clothes?

Think about what events took place then, and then compare what events are taking place now when you dream about drying them. This may mean that you are experiencing similar thoughts, emotions, and even similar life events.

You may feel like you are constantly going around in circles. Remember this: sometimes we need to be ready for a change! You can’t wear a wet shirt, thus going around in circles helps the shirt “be ready” to wear.
Our lives are very similar. You can’t start a new life if you’re not ready for it. Sometimes we have to go around in circles before we know what we have really been called to do.

Dream about washing other people’s clothes

If in a dream you are washing another person’s clothes, it means that you feel like you have to help them. You may be wondering what you can do to ease your own pains and burdens. You may love this person very much and be willing to do anything to help them succeed.

Dreaming about a laundromat

Dreaming about a self-service laundry suggests that you are trying to figure out how to scale up your current business.

You may have great ideas for the future – remember to plan accordingly.
If there are other people in your dream at the laundromat, it may mean that you may make a sudden and unexpected connection.

This person may – or may not – be someone you already know. Make sure you listen to your intuition.
Laundry can also be a symbol of feeling overwhelmed by what you think about other people. Consider: Do you feel comfortable in your relationship? Do you feel that you are stuck? Are you able to communicate easily with others?

Dream about someone else washing your clothes

If you have a dream in which someone steals your laundry or clothes and washes them, it means that you feel as if your privacy has been violated.

You may feel that someone doesn’t understand that you want to be independent. On the other hand, this dream may be a sign that you need to find a way to be more independent.

You may feel as if you need someone to take care of you, although in reality, you are an independent person and responsible for your own happiness and enjoyment of life.

Other things to consider if you wash clothes in your dreams
Every person and every dream is unique, and you are the best interpreter of your dreams.

Here are some ways to better understand your own interpretation of your dreams about washing clothes.

What color clothes are you washing? What kind of clothes are you washing?

Colors can mean many different things in our dreams. If you dream about washing a yellow shirt, it could be a sign that you are nervous about not getting out of a situation. If you dream about washing a red shirt, it could mean that you are angry and trying to get rid of feelings of anger.

See more about the symbolism of colors in dreams in our other article.

The type of clothes also has a meaning. Washing suits is different from washing work clothes. Dirty clothes can symbolize hard work or a small reward, while a suit can mean that you are uncomfortable with your current business.

Dreaming about washing a fancy ball gown or washing dry-clean-only items in the washing machine can mean that you don’t know how or why something should be done a certain way.
