…In a dream, it means toiling in one’s life and exhaustion. This is thus interpreted if one does not actually see himself going through the motion of taking off his shoes and walking barefooted. Otherwise, in that case, it means that he will receive an appointment to a high ranking position. Walking barefooted in a dream is also interpreted as unloading one’s burdens and relief from pressure, divorce or death in one’s family. If one sees himself traveling barefooted, it represents a debt that he could not repay. If one sees himself walking with one foot bare and the second fitted in the dream, it means breaking up a business partnership. (Also see Walking)…

If you dream about walking or just being barefoot it denotes your easiness, freedom, comfort and forgiveness towards the others. You have a tough personality, strong opinion and you are not affraid to express your opinion to important subjects. When you dream of barefoot it may also denote poorness and deficiency of agility.

Dreaming of walking barefoot and even worse if it’s at night, is a warning that if the dreamer does not take care of his image, he or she will fall victim to gossip and slander that will damage the dreamer’s honor. This symbol is especially applicable to women.

Walking barefooted, denotes poverty and loss.

…Symbol of freedom. Dreaming that we have dirty shoes on, indicates guilt. When we are barefootwalking, then it signifies danger of being subjected to others. When we seeing us walk barefoot, then it reveals fear of poverty. If we seeing us well shod, then it is equivalent to feel free. When we dreaming that we wear children’s shoes, then it reveals that we are immature. If the shoe is tight, we still do not know to develop ourselves with the freedom in a new situation. If we break a shoe, it portends loss of our freedom….

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.
