Interpretation according to Miller's Dream Book

American psychologist Gustav Miller, in his dream book, explains the sleeper’s attempts to put his shoes in order with his desire to change his life.

• Why dream of washing shoes especially carefully in a dream? This is a signal that in reality achieving your intended goal will cost you enormous efforts. You just need to be persistent, diligent and responsible.
• If, after diligent washing, the boots in your nightly dreams look almost new, you can achieve a result that you never expected.
• Did you happen to see the dreamer trying on cleaned shoes? Those around him will treat him with respect.
• But if in your night vision you observed from the side that someone was putting your shoes in order, in reality you may find yourself in a difficult situation, from which strangers will help you get out.
• Also in this dream book we can find an explanation of why you dream of washing your shoes in a dream and being satisfied with the result obtained - in reality, not only your authority will increase, but your financial situation will also improve.

Glory and honor

Did you dream that you carefully care for your sandals: wash them, sew them up, clean them? This means that others will notice you. Moreover, your reputation will noticeably increase in their eyes. However, we are talking not only about sandals, because the dream book assures that by smearing any pair of shoes with cream and cleaning them in your nightly fantasy, you can in reality expect a high appreciation of your work and efforts.

If in a dream you saw how it happened to shine another character’s shoes, you should know that you will have to watch how another person enjoys triumph.

Vanga notes in his dream book that washing and cleaning shoes in the midnight phantasmagoria will have to be done by someone who in reality will have to work a lot and hard. But in the end, the dreamer will fully enjoy the results of his work and will win a stunning victory over his competitors and achieve a high social status.

Interpretation according to the Dream Book of the 21st century

In this interpreter we can find out what it means if the shoes that the dreamer washes do not belong to him.

• If a sleeping person washes the boots of his parents or someone at home, in reality, with his rash act, he can provoke a quarrel.
• Have you ever washed shoes that belonged to another person in a dream? This means that you are dependent on its owner for a number of issues.
• Did you dream that you yourself don’t know whose shoes you are putting in order? Routine and boring duties await you at work.
• If you have washed your shoes and are very pleased with the result, this is a sign that an unfavorable period in your life will soon end.

Vanga's explanation

The fortuneteller suggests that if you dream of cleaning someone else's boots, in reality the person who sees such a dream can be used for selfish purposes.

Depending on the plot, the famous clairvoyant considers the following methods of interpretation possible:

1. Helping someone wash dirt off their shoes is a desire to interfere in the lives of other people and give advice when they were not asked for it. There is a possibility that acquaintances will end their relationship because of this.
2. If someone shines shoes instead of the dreamer, he strives to achieve success at the expense of those around him. One can also interpret what was foreseen as an attempt to take credit for achievements that belonged to more successful friends without obtaining their consent.
3. A good sign is considered to be a dream in which a stranger received gratitude for washing galoshes. One should expect career growth and appreciation of business qualities. Another decoding option is getting pleasure from your favorite activity.
4. When you fail to clean the client's shoes from dirt, in real life you will have to waste time on low-paid work.

Running out of cleaning product is a hint that a person is working beyond his physical capabilities. He needs rest.

Interpretation according to the Spring Dream Book

By turning to this interpreter, you can find out why you dream of washing your shoes before going on a visit.

• If you have had such a dream more than once, in real life you always strive to present yourself in the best light. This, of course, is not bad, but try to behave as naturally as possible and not demonstrate your good qualities too clearly.
• Also, such a vision can serve as a warning to you that others should not be privy to some of the facts that took place in your biography. They can be misinterpreted and cause gossip.

Interpretation according to different dream books

In different interpreters we can find an interpretation of dreams in which someone washes shoes:

• According to the Lunar Dream Book, if in a night vision a person sleeping at home washes his boots, this can lead to complications in the relationship between lovers or between spouses if the dreamer is married. But if the dreamer is a lonely person, then it will be difficult for him to decide to make a new acquaintance.
• The Ukrainian dream book explains such a vision as the possibility of moving or a long trip.
• The Psychoanalytic Dream Book says that washing dirty shoes in a dream speaks of you as a person who pays too much attention to outside opinions about his person and is afraid that he will not live up to the expectations of others.
• As for the Modern Dream Book, he explains washing someone else’s shoes in a dream as follows: the sleeper will have to face troubles, perhaps even humiliation. It is possible that he will find a job for which he will be paid very little. But if the night vision ends with the person being able to perfectly wash his shoes, the unfavorable period in his life will soon end.

Esoteric interpreter

This dream book assures: if a person dreamed of sparkling beautiful shoes that he himself had just polished, it means that there are no problems in his personal life.

Have you ever taken care of unusual boots or shoes? This is for some interesting, non-standard incidents in life that will bring positive impressions.

But if a person tried on polished shoes and then admired them for a long time, this portends a long, happy life with his other half. Does the dreamer not have a partner yet? This means that very soon he will finally meet him.

If a person polishes his shoes for a very long time before going out somewhere, he has a long business road ahead of him, which will lead to success.

Interpretation of dreams depending on the type of shoes washed

To figure out why you dream about washing shoes, you need to try to remember exactly what item of clothing you put in order.

• If you dreamed that you were diligently washing your boots, such a vision may symbolize a long and difficult road.
• Were the footwear items you spruced up boots or sandals? In real life, you will encounter obstacles that cannot be overcome immediately.
• Did you happen to see that you had to wash light summer shoes? You will have to sort things out with your opponent one on one.
• If the dreamer was cleaning his shoes, he is actually thinking about a plan of action that can be applied in a difficult situation.
• In your nightly dreams, did you decide not to bother yourself and threw your dirty shoes into the washing machine? You treat the actions of others as something of minor importance, something that you should not pay serious attention to.

Miller's opinion

The fortuneteller believes that if he had to clean dirt from new shoes, he should be vigilant, since there is a high risk of encountering swindlers.

In addition, the following interpretation options are offered:

1. Washing shoes from a puddle is a prediction of the machinations of envious people. They are annoyed by the dreamer's success.
2. Using soap and water is a sign of doubt about the correctness of the decision made. You can also interpret what you saw as suspiciousness, dependence on someone else’s point of view.
3. If after cleaning the shoes become damaged, in real life the sleeper will be disappointed in the second half. It turns out that the lover has long had an affair on the side, which he hides. Most likely, he will make a choice in favor of his mistress.
4. Putting on washed shoes is a hint of the desire to correct the mistakes made and repent to dear people for the offenses committed. However, it will take a long time to choose the words of apology and decide to say them.
5. Thoroughly cleaned donated shoes are a sign of unjustified distrust of others. A person expects a dirty trick even from those who do not want to offend him.

Washing galoshes is a desire to achieve unrealistic goals. You should adequately assess your capabilities.
