Keyhole
A keyhole — the narrow gap for spying or being spied upon — often touches breached confidence: harming someone by disclosing a secret, or false friends prying into your private matters. The dream may ask where you're peering into what isn't yours, who might be peeping to gain an edge, and how a glimpse through a small opening harms.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for keyhole, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream that you spy upon others through a keyhole, you will damage some person by disclosing confidence. If you catch others peeping through a keyhole, you will have false friends delving into your private matters to
advance themselves over you.
To dream that you cannot find the keyhole, you will unconsciously injure a friend.
