To see an old church in a dream is interpreted as people who lie in wait for the person’s unhappy moment. If the dreamer sees an old church in his dream, it indicates that the friend with whom the person shares everything carries tales and constantly wishes for his unhappiness.

Ibn Sirin: For a Christian person, seeing a church in a dream signifies a place of worship, religion, knowledge, worship, work, ascetic withdrawal from the world, fear of doing wrong, repentance, and lamentation, and it may denote weeping. A church in a dream may also mean distress, trouble, slander, innovation, oppression, a business club, a meeting house, bingo, wine, the consumption of intoxicants, a religious rite, weddings, or a spouse. A church may also represent its congregation, its bishopric, its ministry, its clergyman, or its priest. If a person sees in a dream that the church has turned into a synagogue or the synagogue into a church, it indicates insecurity, dispute, or a scheme to evade taxes. To see oneself in a synagogue in a dream indicates that one may become Jewish.

If one’s house turns into a church in a dream, it may indicate that he will bring his work into his home or quarrel with his employer. A church also indicates a cemetery, confession, a prostitute, a music house, or a prison. If a woman sees herself in a dream attending a wedding or funeral ceremony in a church, it may indicate that the same thing could befall her while awake.

It provides early awareness; the person sees risks before they grow and can choose a more solid path.

Neglect, haste, untrustworthy people or uncontrolled behavior can increase the difficulty.

In the interpretation, the themes of work and responsibility, emotional life, success and reputation, the emotional tone in the dream and how the symbol concludes in the dream should be evaluated together.
