When something is restored it is made whole again and in spiritual terms such an image can suggest healing or a return to a former state. Carrying out a restoration in dreams suggests that we are still connected with the past and are trying to recreate it in some way. There is an interesting anomaly from a mundane perspective since in carrying out a restoration we are referring to the past but working for a future, towards the tangibility of something permanent.

If in a dream you repair something, so something needs your life under repair. You can continue in reality repair of a thing in which were engaged in a dream. This symbolical action will help to start processes of self-restoration in area which needs repair.
