If you dream of using a thimble, your life involves tending to the needs of many people, not just your own — and you may need to carve out your own place through effort and perseverance. Losing a thimble in a dream signals financial hardship and complications ahead. An old or cracked thimble suggests you are on the verge of making a poor decision in a matter of real importance. Receiving or purchasing a new thimble points to fresh connections that will bring a sense of belonging and contentment. If you reach for an open-ended thimble only to find it sealed shut, troubles are coming — but the people close to you will help shield you from the worst of the fallout.
