Dead Lamp in dreams
A working light — the steady illumination you depend on to see what you are doing.

The base reading of Lamp
A lamp in a dream is the dictionary's image of working illumination. Unlike a candle, the lamp is steady; the dream often appears around the kinds of light you have built into your life as a default — a routine, a habit of reflection, a trusted source of clarity.
Where you often see it. A lamp left on through the night. A lamp that flickers. The dream uses the lamp for a working light — the steady illumination you depend on to see what you are doing.
What it is not. A lamp is not always reliable. The dictionary reads its flicker as the dreamer's attention wavering.
