Dream interpretation
Seeing a tanner in your dream signifies that changes are coming in your life that will help you acquire new skills. If you see a doctor working as a tanner, it indicates that they are becoming an expert in their profession. This dream may suggest new opportunities or experiences in your work life.
Ibn Sirin
Tanner — Islamic interpretation
From Imam Muhammad Ibn Seerin's Dictionary of Dreams According to Islamic Inner Traditions — entry "Tanner" (page 428).
Seeing a tanner in a dream is interpreted the same as seeing a cupper. (See Cupping). Both specialties cure something. If one sees a physician becoming a tanner in a dream, it denotes his expertise and the large number of people who benefit from his treatments. Unless one finds the tanning to be faulty, then it indicates a non-professional person. If seeing a tanner in a dream is understood to denote material benefits, then in reality, he represents an escape from death. If he is understood in relationship with religious matters, then seeing him means feeding the poor and hungry during a drought or a famine. A tanner in a dream also represents a peacemaker, a physician, or a guardian. However, it is possible to interpret a
tanner in a dream to mean distress, adversities, or an unjust person. (Also see Dye; Vat)
Note: Islamic dream interpretation depends on the dreamer's circumstances and state. This is a general guide drawn directly from the source book.
