Bare foot
A foot with no shoe — direct contact with the ground, by removal of the usual layer.
A bare foot in a dream is the dream's image of direct contact with the ground, made by the removal of the usual layer between. The bare foot feels everything — warmth, cold, sharpness, dampness — that the shoe was designed to filter. The dream brings the bare foot when something in your life — a private moment, a piece of honesty, a sacred ground — is being walked on without the customary protection. A bare foot on warm earth, the contact welcome, is the dream affirming the permitted intimacy with the place. A bare foot on glass or thorn, the surface punishing the lack of shoe, is the dream noting that the protection was removed in a setting that needed it, and the body is now paying for the openness.
