“Father” represents a state of mind. A harmonious relationship with your father in a dream indicates an improvement in your fortune.

Dreaming about your father
The father in a dream symbolizes authority, law-giver, and wisdom, representing power, strength, or dominance. Dreaming about your father may indicate a desire for help from a certain power.
