Universal Landscape: Vulnerability around immediate choices in life.
Dreaming Lens: Were you barefoot in the dream, or was someone else’s feet exposed? Was there a reason you didn’t have shoes on, or were you searching for them? Was there danger in being barefoot, or did it feel good and give you a sense of freedom?
Personal Focus: Feet connect to how grounded you feel. They can also indicate issues around how you are maneuvering through your current life choices. There is a direct connection between where you put your feet and where you go. If they are exposed to the elements, it leaves them vulnerable to injury. This can have a great impact on your journey and how you get to where you intend to go. It is important to remember that vulnerability implies easy access to impact and not whether that impact is “good” or “bad.” A person walking barefoot on broken glass is vulnerable to being cut, whereas a person walking barefoot on grass is vulnerable to the ticklish sensations that might result and can be considered pleasurable.
Consider all the possible cultural and societal nuances that might affect how this image when it is interpreted. There are many people for whom having the foot visible is an erotic turn-on. Additionally, many yogic traditions require bare feet in order for the body to effectively process energy. In many cultures, it is customary to remove shoes when indoors as a sign of respect. Removing shoes can also be a symbol of freedom and liberation. The same liberation, however, can connect a person to a self-conscious awareness of odor that builds up from prolonged confinement of the feet in shoes, reflecting a resistance to feeling more free.
Bare feet are more connected to the ground. In a dream, this can indicate being more grounded, or that a more grounded approach to some life situation is necessary. This image also connotes feeling more “down to Earth” and implies being laid back and relaxed.

Consider the context of the dream first.
For example, there is nothing unusual about walking barefoot on the beach, but walking barefoot on a roadway might indicate exposing oneself to harm.
Sensitivity. Feeling the grass between your toes, and really experiencing life to the fullest.
Freedom and liberation. Tossing oft’your shoes is like being released from a cage or other material bonds.
Among ascetics, the ability to walk your path confidently and safely because you know it so intimately.
Fire-walking barefoot reveals an ability within to accomplish any task to which you set your mind, no matter how impossible it may initially seem.
[2]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.

[3]You need to be more grounded in your life and experience a level of vulnerability around immediate choices in life. Feet connect to how grounded you feel. They can also indicate issues around how you are maneuvering through your current life choices. There is a direct connection between where you put your feet and where you go.
If your feet are exposed to the elements, it leaves them vulnerable to injury, but can also help connect you more organically to the ground beneath your feet. This image also connotes feeling more down-to-earth and implies being laid-back and relaxed.
[4]1- Depending on the circumstances of the dream, to be barefoot can indicate either poverty or the recognition of sensual freedom.
2- To be barefoot and not able to find one’s shoes shows a lack of suitability, an awareness of inappropriate behaviour.
3- Being barefoot at one time indicated great humility. When Christ wished to show that he was no different to other men he washed his disciples’ feet.
[5]As feet are a symbol for the “under-standing” and also for the feelings, dreaming of being barefoot indicates that you are viewing something in your life in the simplest way. It could also mean that your deepest feelings are apparent to just about everyone around you and perhaps you need to hide them a little better.
Bare, unprotected feet imply difficulties to be overcome.
[6]To be completely naked in your dream is a very lucky omen, but if only your feet were bare, you have some difficulties to overcome before you reach your goal.
[7]To wander in the night barefoot with torn garments, denotes that you will be crushed in expectation, and evil influences will surround your every effort.
[8]1. Recalling youthful, carefree times (summertime).
2. Impaired mobility.
3. Putting off success.
[9]To dream that you are barefoot represents your playful attitudes and relaxed, carefree attitude.
[10]To dream that you have become barefoot, a dream of success and prosperity (Gypsy).
