Okay, here's my interpretation of the elements in your dream: the old job was a form of reminiscing; not surprising as you say that you sometimes miss it. The experience of being fired stems from a sense of guilt that you did something at some point that you weren't supposed to. The sunset represented sadness. Your coworkers peeking at you is symbolic of your feeling that you were being used as an example. The sad music represented loss. Leaving through the front door symbolizes transition. The railroad station symbolizes continuance, or the element of time.
ANALYSIS: You still harbor feelings for your old job, as you said. However, you still feel some sort of connection to the people at that job; a personal relationship which you never really settled. This feeling is nagging at you, and you want to reconcile it. However, you're afraid of the feelings that it might stir up, both in yourself and with the people that might still be there, so this task remains undone.
My advice is that you reach out online and find out if anyone who works there is familiar, or if they remember you. Tell them that you're going to be in the neighborhood sometime in the future and you'd like to come by, "for old time's sake." Chances are they'd like to see you again, and you'd be able to put these personal ghosts to rest. And if you're nervous about going back, don't be. My experience is that if you still think about that place and the people there, then the chances are very good that they still think about you. I recently contacted an old friend I'd not seen for ten years and she was delighted to hear from me.  |
