House dream meaning
Dream interpretation
A house represents your entire psyche β each room mirrors a different facet of your personality and memory.
General meaning
In psychological dream work, the house is the classic portrait of the self: the attic holds intellect and memories, the basement holds instinct and buried fears, the living room is your social persona, and the bedroom is private intimacy. The condition, size, and atmosphere of the house reflect your inner architecture.
