An interpretation of wall dreams

An interpretation of wall dreams

This interpretation is from ""The Dream Interpretation Dictionary: Symbols, Signs, and Meanings" and is provided by J.M. DeBord aka "RadOwl". He is the author of several acclaimed books about dreaming, the host of The Dreams That Shape Us podcast, and is a moderator of r/Dreams, one of the largest dream sharing communities on the internet. Wallets are associated with what they’re used to carry: money, bank cards, identity documents, and so on. Now branch out from there and your dreams have all sorts of subjects they can address and ways to tell the story. Finding a wallet belonging to someone else can symbolize borrowing money or accepting someone’s financial support. It can symbolize an unexpected windfall. It can mean finding within yourself a new capacity to make or manage money. Losing a wallet can be used to tell a story about a crisis in your life, especially a financial crisis. It can be associated with feelings of panic and making poor decisions. After losing a wallet a person might ask, “How could I be so stupid?” A dream could use that association to create symbolism for a situation where you used poor judgment or mucked up your finances. Losing a wallet is a theme that pops up in dreams when a person is in a personal crisis. You lost something important related to your self-worth, finances, identity, or personality, such as a job or relationship. A lost wallet can symbolize a crisis of confidence. The connection between the dream and yourself is found in the thoughts, feelings, and emotions triggered by thinking that you lost your wallet. Now your task is to identify how it connects with something you recently thought or felt. Losing a wallet can symbolize losing something else that’s important to you, such as your emotional or personal security. A common fear when a wallet is lost is that someone will find it and exploit the situation by using your credit cards, stealing your identity, or even showing up at your home. Your sense of security is lost. Rummaging through someone’s wallet can symbolize invasion of privacy or getting a view into his or her personal life. For example, you find out your spouse has been secretly reading your personal email, and dream about catching the person with your wallet. Or you see a friend’s bank statement. But don’t stop there. Dreams are creative storytellers and can test your reactions. For example, you find a wallet that’s not yours. What do you do? Search for the person who owns the wallet and return it, or “finders keepers?” Your reaction says a lot about the sort of person you are. Then again, perhaps subconsciously you know the wallet symbolizes something that belongs to you anyway and you have every right to keep it. You can tell the difference by your feelings about finding it and what you decide to do with it. See also: Banks, Gambling, Lost things, Money, Panic, Purse, Shopping, Subconscious
