The base reading of Broken clock
A broken clock in a dream is the dictionary's image of a relationship with time that has stopped working. Unlike the clock symbol — which is time-awareness — the broken clock is the dream noting that the way you have been measuring time has lost its meaning.
Where you often see it. A clock whose hands have stopped. A clock that runs backwards. The dream uses the broken clock for a relationship to time that has stopped working — your schedule has lost its meaning.
What it is not. A broken clock is not necessarily ominous. The dictionary often reads it as permission to step out of clock-time for a stretch.
