Dreaming of a shadow moving across your bedroom doorway can symbolize feelings of vulnerability or uncertainty in your personal space. The bedroom often represents intimacy and the private aspects of your life, so the presence of a stranger may indicate an intrusion of unknown elements or emotions into your life.

The stranger asking, "can I come in?" could reflect a desire for connection or the fear of the unknown. It may suggest that you are currently facing a situation where you feel someone or something is trying to enter your life, and you are unsure whether to allow it.

Consider what the stranger might represent in your waking life. Are there new opportunities, relationships, or experiences on the horizon that you are hesitant to embrace? Alternatively, this dream could indicate an internal conflict about letting others in or accepting change.

Reflect on your feelings during the dream and upon waking. This can provide further insight into whether you feel ready to open up to new experiences or if you prefer to maintain your current boundaries.
