In some cultures, it is a rule to remove your shoes before entering a temple or the house of another person as an indication that we are at the owner’s disposal. The shoe represents us, and we let it out as a symbol that we do not claim any personal authority. Hence some dreams about shoes indicate a desire to possess the shoe owner. But shoes are also a symbol of walking and paths. Dreaming that you have dirty shoes on, can mean feelings of guilt. If in the dream we are walking barefoot, it can symbolize fear to see us subjected to unwanted situations of humiliation. If in the dream our shoes are not comfortable, they are reflecting a situation in everyday life that makes us uncomfortable, perhaps we do not have freedom of action or authority to impose our judgment.
