If you dream of seeing or walking through a gate, prepare for unsettling news about someone who has been away from your life. Your financial or professional situation may also feel discouraging around this time. A closed gate suggests you're struggling to push past your current obstacles. Locking a gate points to well-earned success and the presence of trustworthy people around you. A broken gate signals failure and a chaotic atmosphere. If you find yourself straining to open or pass through a gate, your hardest work may yield little reward or leave you feeling unfulfilled. Swinging idly on a gate is a sign you may be drawn into reckless or empty pleasures.
