Salt mine
An underground source of salt — a basic necessity drawn out of the earth by long hard labour.
A salt mine in a dream is the dream's image of a basic necessity drawn out of the earth by long hard labour. The salt that seasons every kitchen is here in its first form, in the dark, being cut by hand. The dream brings the salt mine when something in your life — a domestic ease, a small daily flavour, a routine freedom — is being supported by labour done somewhere out of sight that the user does not think about. A salt mine acknowledged and respected is the dream affirming the honest awareness of the supply chain. A salt mine forgotten, with the salt on the table treated as if it came from nowhere, is the dream noting that the comfort being received has a source whose work has been invisibilised.
