Lockers in dreams often symbolize the need for privacy, security, and the storage of personal feelings or memories. Dreaming of lockers can reflect an aspect of the self that is hidden or compartmentalized. The state of the locker (locked, unlocked, empty, or full) may indicate how comfortable you feel about revealing certain parts of yourself or confronting hidden issues.

A locked locker may suggest repressed emotions or secrets that are not ready to be shared, while an unlocked or open locker could indicate a desire for openness and vulnerability. If the locker is empty, this may signify feelings of loss or a lack of fulfillment, whereas a full locker might suggest being overwhelmed by thoughts or responsibilities.

Moreover, the act of searching for a locker or trying to open one can embody feelings of anxiety or uncertainty regarding personal identity or life situations. The location of the locker—such as a school, gym, or workplace—can also provide context, reflecting the environment in which these emotions are being processed.
