Intruder
An intruder in your home represents a violation of your personal boundaries — someone or something is invading your most private psychological space. The intruder can represent a repressed aspect of yourself demanding attention, an actual person whose presence feels invasive, or general anxiety about safety and vulnerability. How you respond to the intruder reveals your approach to boundary violations.
Money
Money in dreams represents self-worth, personal power, and the energy of exchange. Finding money may indicate discovering hidden talents or self-worth. Losing money reflects fear of loss or diminished self-esteem. Counting money might indicate evaluating your personal assets — not just financial, but emotional and spiritual.
