Interpretation 1 — Pamela Ball

1- When we dream that we are peering through a keyhole, we air conscious of the fact that our ability to see and understand is somehow impaired. Conventionally; the keyhole has been taken to represent the feminine, so that impairment could result from our attitude to the feminine.

2- Since a key usually requires a keyhole, to dream of one without the other indicates some kind of confusion between the inner and outer self.

3- A kcvhole symbolises the dreamer’s tentative entry into the Sublime.
