Dreams can be interpreted symbolically. A desk can signify self-development, freedom to explore a variety of tasks and organizational abilities.
The interpretation of a desk in dreams focuses almost exclusively on how the dreamer is doing their work. In many cases we see that they are drawing inspiration, creativity and ideas from hidden sources of which they are not consciously aware. Desk dreams also have to do with concentration and hard work. Dreamers who see themselves working diligently at their desks will very likely be rewarded with excellent results.
When we think about what a desk means in his or her dreams, it is common for the dreamer to subconsciously focus on those elements of himself/herself that he or she may be neglecting due to laziness, isolation or lack of discipline while ignoring the service they may be providing others in these situations. Such dreams may serve as warnings against feeling lazy and procrastinating on what is important.
Also, dreaming about a desk can mean that you are reflecting on who you are, what happened that day, and what you accomplished. A downside of a desk may be feeling guilty around them if they represent self-doubt or if the person had a hard time getting productive output for the day.
