Dreaming of a Window
window, pane, shutter, windowpane · very negative
A window is a gloomy omen: dashed hopes, desertion and suspicion.
What happens in the dream
- Seeing windows: bright hopes that end badly and efforts that go nowhere
- Closed windows: desertion
- Broken windows: painful suspicions of disloyalty from those you love
- Sitting in a window: you will fall victim to your own folly
- Climbing in through a window: you'll be caught using dishonorable means
- Escaping through one: a trouble that will hold you tight
- Glimpsing strange things through a window as you pass: failure in your work and lost respect
How you felt
- A wish for openness: the dream may reflect a longing to see beyond your current situation
- A sense of distance: you may be watching your life from the outside
Ask yourself
- What do I want to look out toward?
- What am I not daring to walk through directly?
