Lost

A dream of being lost is related to areas in your life where you need guidance to get back on track. These dreams seem to be connected with anxiety in your life; as well during times of uncertainty. You dream will provide you with major clues that will direct you to what you might be searching for. It is not uncommon to lose your keys, kids, dogs or even yourself in a foreign city.

The anxiety felt when something precious is lost can be so disturbing that even when you wake up, you cannot shake it. The symbol of what is lost may appear insignificant in waking life so you need to explore its deeper associations to see what you have currently 'misplaced' or ignored. Often it is a clothing item which would be a message about neglecting some important aspect of your identity, or a heirloom that would have associations with family dynamics. The fact that you are 'dreaming' of losing this item shows its importance or relevance - even while you disregard its importance during the day.

If a man of knowledge sees himself lost in a dream, it means that he will benefit people with his knowledge, that his teachings will spread widely and that he will be remembered for a long time after he dies. Getting lost in a dream also means bad luck. If one loses a garment or a house in a dream, it means extra expenses, repairs, or taxes he will pay for his property. If one is stripped of his entire wardrobe in a dream, it means that he will avoid an evil and a costly incident.
