Yard in a dream
By folk belief, a yard in a dream speaks of your closest circle of people and of how others see you.
The yard is the space between the house and the world, so old dream books connect it with family, neighbors and reputation. A clean, roomy yard is read as harmony and an open gate for friends. If it was overgrown, it is believed you have withdrawn into yourself a little and that it is time to get in touch with someone. Many people dream of the yard of their childhood; that is considered a warm dream that brings back a sense of belonging and carefree play.
