Factory:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: The alchemical Unconscious processes, which work 
               tirelessly to forge the whole Self.

Fairy:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: In a man's dream, his Anima, or unrealized feminine 
               nature; in a woman's dream, a 'wise woman' or 
               Goddess archetype with a boon to bestow.

Father:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: If the father in the dream is your own, then his 
               presence probably indicates that the Unconscious 
               is working to resolve repressed issues concerning 
               your relationship.

Fence:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: An Ego-imposed separation from Other.  Is the 
               fence keeping something out or holding something 
               in?  Can it be breached?  Should it be?  What 
               boundary does it define?

Field:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: Immersion in the natural cycle of the Earth -- the 
               openness of the sky, the span of the landscape.  
               The condition of the field is usually the dream 
               message.  Is it barren?  Overgrown?  Bountiful?  
               Wild prairie or meadow?  If an agricultural field, 
               its yield is the metaphorical result of what has 
               been sown and cultivated.

Fingers:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: The most expressive and communicative of the mind's 
               tools in both the dream world and waking life.  If 
               a dream character signs with his fingers, the 
               gesture can be read to have the same meaning as in 
               real life.

Fish:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: Generally a spiritual element in the dream, 
               signalling that the dreamer is plumbing deep into 
               the Collective Unconscious.  The dream fish can 
               symbolize the realized Self or the Christ archetype, 
               as well.

Floating:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: A letting-go of conscious striving, trusting the 
               Tao -- the natural flow of all things -- to buoy 
               you up and carry you easily along its current.  
               The Unconscious mind's invitation to 'Be' instead 
               of 'do'.

Flower:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: A symbol of the Self, your realized true nature, 
               allowed to bloom forth.

Flying:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: Liberation from the gravity of an oppressive 
               conscious circumstance.

Forest:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: The confusing, sometimes frightening landscape of 
               the Unconscious, full of death and rebirth in an 
               endless symbiotic cycle. One is easily lost, and 
               must blaze an individual trail through the thick 
               undergrowth and twilight canopy, encountering the 
               forest's inhabitants (drives, instincts, complexes, 
               Shadow) along the way.  Dante's dream-like Inferno 
               opens, 'Midway through life's journey ... I woke to 
               find myself alone in a dark wood ..."

Fortress:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: Your Persona, the facade you have constructed to 
               keep the outside world at a safe distance.

Friend:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: Your Shadow -- those essential qualities of 
               yourself that your Super-ego and Ego have rejected 
               and repressed into your Unconscious -- taking the 
               shape of a companion, one with a different 
               perspective, but on the same path, with the same 
               destination as you.

Frost:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: Sign of an impending emotional Winter, a natural 
               ending and dormancy before cyclical rebirth and 
               new growth.

Funeral:
1) PSYCHOLOGY: Dreams of viewing your own funeral are wake-up 
               calls from your Unconscious.  This is not a 
               prophetic dream, but, as with Ebenezer Scrooge's 
               dream of Christmas-Yet-to-Come, it is a summation 
               of your life, your values, and the consequences of 
               your actions toward family, friends and loved ones.  
               Do they honor you in the dream the way you want to 
               be remembered?  Start living the eulogy you hope 
               for, today.
