What does
shoes mean in dreams?
Today’s term
from Dream Sight: A Dictionary and Guide For Interpreting Any Dream is
Shoes. For no particular reason…
Shoes
Universal
Landscape: How grounded you are.
Dreaming
Lens: Were you wearing shoes? Were you looking for shoes?
Were you shopping for shoes? Were you putting them on or taking them
off? Were they yours or someone else’s? Were you aware of whose
shoes you were wearing? Was someone else wearing your shoes?
Personal
Focus: Shoes simultaneously protect our feet as well as express our sense
of style. Our feet symbolize how grounded we are and our ability to
maneuver effectively on our chosen path. The shoes that we wear or see in
a dream reflect two things: how we protect the stand we take in life and
how we express ourselves with regard to the steps we take as we walk through
life.
Looking at a
particular pair of shoes to wear in a dream connects to a direction you have
not yet embarked upon but may be considering. Noticing someone else’s
shoes might point to a number of thoughts about others, including envy,
judgment or compassion–the latter of which can only occur when you have walked
a mile in another person’s shoes.
A single shoe
means a path that is only half-considered, or a switch that occurs midway
through a process. Losing or looking for shoes might point out insecurity
that keeps you from moving through life in a more grounded fashion.
Sneakers or athletic shoes connect to speed and increased performance.
High- heeled shoes make a statement about a deliberate presentation that has
impact, but can debilitate movement. Wearing a very expensive shoe might
illuminate issues around the desire for abundance.
What do shoes
symbolize in art?
Shoes have so
many functions, they can have many different meanings.
Shoes can represent protection, comfort, and shelter for obvious reasons.
For women, they can represent sexiness - high heels and stilettos. And for men they can represent status and wealth - Italian leather.
They can also been seen as symbols of travel and far away places, as well as very representational of the person who is in them. For example, think of all the different people you associate with different types of shoes: Dutch wooden shoes, athletic tennis shoes, surfer flip flops, Nazis boots. So they can also represent very common stereotypes.

Finally,
shoes are made to be worn! On - Bible
We wear the
“shoes of a Christian” because we are Christian. We are part of the family of
God. These shoes never come off! We have removed the old shoes of our old life,
and God gives us new shoes bought with the price of His only begotten Son. We
wear these shoes for eternity!
We are like
the prodigal in the story of the prodigal son of Luke 15.
Luke 15:22)
But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on
him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: (KJV Bible)
Here is this
rebellious, worthless, disloyal son who demands of his daddy an inheritance
before his father’s death, who takes this handout, who doesn’t repent till it
is all wasted – here he is audaciously wallowing in pig stink. Finally, he
comes his senses, and decides to return to papa! What does the father do? The
father is so elated - He runs with joy, He embraces with Godly forgiveness, He
kisses much, He orders dinner and a party, and He gives his ‘new’ son a pair of
shoes! The prodigal is once again a son. He is wearing the shoes to show it!
Put on your
shoes, Christian friend. These shoes are made for walking!

What do shoes
represent metaphorically?
They
represent the kind of person you want to be seen as (for women), the kind of
person you are (for men). I think it is especially true with men because they
don't think about the little details sometimes. They will wear a beautiful new
suit and an old scuffed pair of shoes with it. I always made it a point to
never date a man who didn't wear good shoes on his first date. It was an
indication that he either did not think enough of the date to wear something
nice, or did not own anything nice because he was cheap or broke. Women, on the
other hand, know the powerful message shoes send to the world. It is harder to
get an accurate representation of the kind of person they are, rather you can
judge the kind of person a woman wants to be or be seen as by looking at her
shoes. Shoes can be a powerful indication of the type of person the wearer is,
as long as you know how to read the situation correctly.
Shoes can
represent ALOT of things, but summarizing it up, I would say they represent the
freedom of humanity to walk on this Earth, protection between the world of
humans and the world of nature, the amazingfeat of human feet in there ability
to sustain such pressure all day
