Cannot find

When you can’t find something or someone in your dream, it reflects feelings of having “lost” or lost touch with it/them in your waking life. Pay attention to who or what it is.

If you can’t find your purse or wallet (dream symbols associated with identity), consider where your identity may be in transition, such as having been married to being divorced. If you can’t find your car (or other means of transportation) in a dream, it reflects concerns about having lost your direction in waking life.  If you lose your car keys in a dream, it is a metaphor for your concern about reaching your next destination. Because shoes are symbols of the "direction we are headed" in our lives, losing them also reflects feelings of having lost your direction in waking life. If you can't find some place in a dream, it reflects concerns about that location in your waking life. Being unable to find a phone or laptop in a dream reflects concerns about connecting with someone.  When you can't find a pet in a dream, it reflects concerns about losing or being without them (or who/what they represent) in your waking life.
