Dream Dictionary Meaning: Dish

Dishes can represent the mode by which we receive our emotional, mental or spiritual nourishment—just as dishes are the actual mode by which we usually receive our physical nourishment (food). For example, a plate or platter being presented to you could represent a recent opportunity for learning or inspiration, such as a chance to take a class.

Dirty dishes stacked up might mean that you're dreading the work you have ahead of you in real life.
