A nail file is a metal or cardboard implement with a specific surface used in manicuring one’s fingernails.

Positive: A nail file could symbolize smoothing out the rough edges when something is jagged, crooked, or uneven. It could represent God smoothing out your rough edges.

Negative: A nail file in a dream could also indicate conflict in one’s life. It could represent the need to smooth out the edges of your personality or relationship with others because of a harsh or abrasive attitude.

(Psalm 46:9; Proverbs 27:17; Ezekiel 23:40; Galatians 5:15).
