If you dream of a pickpocket, be alert — someone in your waking life may be working against your interests, looking for ways to undermine you or cause you real harm. If you dream that your pocket is picked, it may signal that a rival or envious acquaintance is plotting to damage your reputation or cost you a valued friendship. Guard your actions and keep your intentions private to avoid giving them ammunition. If you are the one picking pockets in the dream, consider whether your recent behavior has been thoughtless or inconsiderate — you may be pushing people away without realizing it.
