Upright meaning
Naked in public, mocked by a crowd, cast out by your family — these are the classic images of shame in dreams. Shame is a social lever of control: by withholding love and acceptance, behaviour is steered. What are you ashamed of? What makes you feel unloved? Whose shame is this — your own, or imposed? And how do you strip it of its power over you?
Reversed meaning
In reversed position
Reversed — you are emerging from shame; you have nothing to be ashamed of, and it no longer rules you or the situation.
