Guard – Dreaming of a guard is a symbol of your subconscious protection of yourself. We all have an instinct for self-preservation. This leads us to avoid certain people and situations which we feel may be dangerous. When a guard tells you something in a dream, this is a message you should heed very seriously. It may be a sign that dangers are coming which you will need to defend yourself from, or that you will soon find yourself in a dangerous situation unless you are especially cautious. It may also mean that you should be on your guard around certain people, as they are not trustworthy.
