A golden calf is an object of materialistic unworthy worship. The golden calf is known as the idol the Israelites constructed on Mt. Sinai to worship instead of God. Moses came down from the mountain and smashed the idol to pieces. God calls idols an abomination.

Positive: Dreaming of idol worship has no positive benefits, but if you see yourself worshiping an idol in a dream and someone praying for you they are asking God for mercy on your behalf and to withhold His wrath. If you see someone else worshiping idols in your dream it could represent the need to pray for them.

Negative: If you dream of idol worship it could represent something purposeless and empty in your life that you are giving too much time, attention, or even worship to. If you are building a golden calf or other form of idol in your dream it may represent that you are cutting yourself off from God in a certain area.
