Dream interpretation
Seeing a blacksmith in your dream suggests that a powerful personality or leader may emerge in your life. This dream can indicate a strong influence around you that may inspire you or assist you in making decisions. Additionally, the blacksmith is also considered a symbol of the angel of death, signifying changes in life and new beginnings.
Ibn Sirin
Blacksmith — Islamic interpretation
From Imam Muhammad Ibn Seerin's Dictionary of Dreams According to Islamic Inner Traditions — entry "Blacksmith" (page 41).
In a dream, a blacksmith represents a strong personality, a leader, or a powerful and a skillful ruler. A blacksmith in a dream also represents the angel of death. Seeing a blacksmith in a dream or being one, indicates both happiness and adversities. To be brought before a blacksmith in a dream means an accident that will bring one before a person in authority for intercession. Otherwise, it could mean seeking the fellowship of a worthless person. If one sees a sick or a deceased person sitting with a blacksmith in a dream, it means that he is in hell, and particularly when his face is blackened from the smoke, or it could mean that he may be imprisoned. (Also see Bellows)
Note: Islamic dream interpretation depends on the dreamer's circumstances and state. This is a general guide drawn directly from the source book.
