A broken lock signifies the loss of a barrier and the exposure of what was held in confidence. The root of the symbol implies a state of keeping, yet this dream marks the failure of that containment. This dream is not the birth of a new truth, but the breaking of an old defense.
The disruption of this mechanism suggests a pause in a person’s established role or social standing. A broken lock marks a time when work stops and duties are set aside. The failure of the device results in a sudden lack of security. A broken lock leaves the hidden things of the mind or the house vulnerable to the light.
The dream of a lock not working points toward a necessary interval of rest. This period of inactivity provides the room for a person to recover.
A sudden and forceful tearing away occurs when a lock falls out of its place. This violent break shows that a connection is being severed.

Tahir FirasahInterpreter interprets your dreams
Every dream stands at a threshold between what was seen and what it stands for. The old books weighed each sign with care and were rarely harsh. A thing in good condition speaks one way and the same thing broken speaks another. What concerns one sleeper can also reach a whole household. Where the books disagree, the lighter reading has long been preferred. Precision is a kindness.
