Each interpretation is shown with its source.
Interpretation 1 — Martha Clarke
Dreaming of ointment predicts that you will overcome bad moments thanks to your strength of will and your hard work.
If you prepare yourself, you will have to make a stand against the adversity without the help of others; if you see it being made, you will tell friends about it; it you are applying it to yourself, you will find yourself in the middle of the disputes of others. Ointments with a pleasing smell indicates that you will live a good period of time in the emotional sphere; but if it smells bad, you will not know how to communicate with the people in your environment. The properties of the ointment can also be healing. In this case, something may have entered your life that will bring you calm and relief from the injuries of the past.

Interpretation 2 — Pamela Ball
1- Dreaming of ointment means we need to be aware of the part of ourselves that either needs, or is capablc of, healing.
The kind of ointment will often give information as to what we need.
For instance, to be dreaming of a well-known brand can suggest a non-specific type of healing, whereas an ointment that has been prepared specifically for the dreamer suggests a more focused approach.
2- Since Pagan times, ointments have been used to preserve and to prevent decay. Often the use of ointments was a mark of respect, and this symbolism can still apply in dreams today.
3- Ointment can point to our Spiritual need to care and heal, or alternatively, our need to be cared for.

Interpretation 5 — Eric Ackroyd
Ointment may symbolize healing. There isn’t a fly in it, is there? If there is, it will represent something in yourself — an old habit that you won’t let die, or a negative attitude — that is interfering with the healing processes in the unconscious.
