Vault
A vault — sealed tomb or strongroom — often touches bereavement and misfortune, though a vault for valuables can mean a surprising fortune, with loss if its doors stand open. The dream may ask what you've locked away, and whether the sealed chamber holds grief, an unexpected estate, or a trust about to be breached by those you rely on.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for vault, 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 of a vault, denotes bereavement and other misfortune. To see a vault for valuables, signifies your fortune will surprise many, as your circumstances will appear to be meagre. To see the doors of a vault open, implies loss and treachery of people whom you trust.
Fontaine, 1862
An unexpected estate will fall to you, if you dream of a vault.
