Landlord
Landlady, Paying rent, Being evicted
A landlord holds the keys to a place that feels like yours but isn't entirely, which makes this a dream about security and who has a say in your life. It's common when you depend on someone else's decisions, at work, in the family or in a shared home. A fair, helpful landlord suggests you feel supported. A strict or unpredictable one may show that you're unsure of your footing somewhere. Rent coming due can stand for any obligation you keep paying, with time, effort or patience, to hold on to your place.
