Bankrupt
Uncover Hidden Dream Meanings
A dream of bankruptcy or being bankrupt yourself can indicate anxiety and doubt. The symbolic meaning of this dream indicates there is a problem that needs to be addressed in the waking world, a problem that is not necessarily connected to financial affairs.
A dream involving bankruptcy suggests that you have cut yourself off from other people who are close to you and care for you.
Bankruptcy in a dream can be a symbol of curiosity. If you are experiencing money problems in the real world, then this dream may indicate your anxiety about some financial circumstances, but the dream probably does not have any direct meaning. For example, a bankruptcy dream does not necessarily mean you are going bankrupt yourself.
In your dream you may have
- Been bankrupt.
- Become bankrupt.
- Seen somebody become bankrupt.
- Been in danger of becoming bankrupt.
- Filed for bankruptcy.
- Seen someone who is bankrupt in real life.
Positive changes are afoot if
- The bankruptcy issue was resolved.
- You helped prevent someone from going into bankruptcy.
- You did not go into bankruptcy.
Detailed dream interpretation
As bankruptcy is associated with a lack of resources around us, the dream could mean that you need to look at all aspects of your life in order to strengthen the areas that need to be improved. Find what is missing in your life and see if you can find something to replace that void.
Bankruptcy in general is an alarming omen if it is displayed in your dream. If you become bankrupt in your dream, you may actually have some sort of gain in your waking life. If you are bankrupt in the waking world and it is reflected in your dream, you should follow the advice of someone close to you. If someone close to you appears to be bankrupt in your dream, it is a sign that you will receive a gift or a charitable donation from someone you love or a stranger. However, bankruptcy may symbolize future danger as well.
Dreaming of your business being bankrupt represents mismanagement of something in the waking world. If you are overwhelmed with anxiety, this dream means that someone puts pressure on you in your waking life. If you dream that you became slowly bankrupt, this can be the sign of a steady income that you will soon be receiving. If you are about to become bankrupt in your dream, it usually means that you feel powerless. You may have a fear of failing, or you feel that things are beyond you. You may want to give up what does not make you feel good or bring material gains. Try to focus solely on things that bring you positive benefits, either financially or emotionally.
