Alkaline (Lye Soap)

Alkaline (Lye Soap)

If one dreams of washing their hands with alkaline (lye soap), their expectations will not be fulfilled—unless, as some scholars say, the washing is due to grease or filth. In that case, it signifies the removal of worries or hardships, or the fulfillment of a need.

Some interpretations hold that washing one’s hands with lye soap symbolizes the end of a friendship, while others say it indicates the end of an enmity. Still, others interpret it as a sign of being freed from fear, and some say it represents sincere repentance from sins.
