UNFAMILIAR
KEYS
Keys can be a metaphor for opening
locks that have previously blocked
your progress. Or they can promise an
opening to exciting new possibilities.
However they appear in the dream
world, the setting, context, and sensed
feelings will determine their symbolism.

Unfamiliar Keys
THE KEYS MAKE YOU FEEL
UNCOMFORTABLE
You see a bunch of strange, unfamiliar keys.
You have no idea where they might t in your
present home or workplace. They seem to be
signicant, and you wish you could place
exactly why. Obviously old enough to belong
to the distant past, those keys make you
feel uncomfortable.
Action Consider what they might represent.
What is it you should unlock in your memory,
hidden from your conscious mind? Perhaps it
is time now to turn the key and remember the
reason for your discomfort. Maybe looking
through old photographs or letters might
help bring the memories to the surface. Tell
yourself you are grown up now; you can cope.
THE KEY DOESN’T FIT
IN THE LOCK
A key that you somehow know once closed
the door on a chance to change your life for
the better has appeared in a dream. You grieve
as you look at this key and wish you could
somehow use it again to open that door.
But putting it into the lock eludes you.
It just won’t t.
Action Realize the dream key is no longer the
right one. If it did once hold the answer to a
lost opportunity, accept its loss. But a key is
still within you—you are capable of making
other opportunities come your way. What
are your gifts? Decide to use them to
reach your full potential.
SKELETONS BEHIND THE
LOCKED DOOR
You open a forbidden door with an unfamiliar
key and see piles of skeletons. You slam the
door shut and run away as fast as you can. The
scary scene of all those bones haunts you
when you wake up.
Action What are the skeletons behind your
door? Trust your psyche; it is showing that
you must take a further look at those stored
memories. If you feel you need help, discuss
the secrets with qualied people. Once
released in those discussions,
those skeletons could take on an
entirely new perspective.
AN ANCIENT IRON KEY TO
AN OLD DOOR
A massive ancient key, ornate and heavy, has
been placed on a table. You want to see what
it might unlock—then an old oak door appears
from nowhere. You put the key in its lock and
feel cautious when it turns. The door opens to
a vaulted hall, home of forgotten esoteric
mysteries. You feel dident, yet somehow you
know you’re invited to explore.
Action Remember how wary you felt in this
dream. Does that reect your reluctance to
venture into new territory in real life?
Rewarding discoveries may await you,
but only if you calm your fears.
