Dreaming of Fingernails
fingernails, cuticle, manicure · mixed
Dirty nails point to embarrassing escapades in the family; well-kept nails, to studious tastes and thrift.
What happens in the dream
- Your nails are well kept: scholarly tastes, some literary success, and thrift
- Your nails are dirty: wild behaviour by young relatives will bring embarrassment
How you felt
- Concern with appearances: the dream may reflect attention to detail
- Embarrassment: it may show fear of being judged through those close to you
Ask yourself
- Do I feel responsible for how my family behaves?
- How well am I looking after myself?
