BURGLAR

Spiritual Meaning:
Intrusion – either on a physical or material level – is intrinsic to the idea of a burglar. Spiritually, there is a violation of our sacred space.

Psychological / Emotional Perspective:
A part of our psyche may have been neglected and left to fend for itself. It then intrudes on our awareness seeking attention.

Everyday Material Aspects:
When we become aware of a burglar or intruder in our dreams we are experiencing some form of unwelcome attention. This may be from external sources or from our own inner fears and difficult emotions.

Gender / Specific Meanings:
Since traditionally a burglar is perceived to be masculine, in a woman’s dream he may represent the wayward antisocial aspect of the men around her. In a man’s dream, a burglar is more likely to represent his need to control his own sense of impropriety.
