Dreaming of an armchair means you have stability and patience in your life. The armchair provides you with a level head and keeps you grounded. Your career and business dealings will continue to moving forward without any foreseeable obstacles in the way. From the seated position of power, people you encounter acknowledge your presence and seek your wisdom.
If you are dreaming of sitting in an armchair, this might represent your current life situation and responsibilities such as your work desk or your responsibilities as a parent. This symbolizes that you are at ease with what has been given to you and that these responsibilities do not seem overwhelming.
However, if you are sitting on an old broken-down armchair while wearing dirty clothes, this can signify that you are feeling overwhelmed by your current situation and responsibilities. It may also symbolize fear of failure which can be caused by being overworked to the point where one cannot continue any longer.
