Dream Meaning: A House
Updated
Dreams about a house are commonly interpreted as the self; different rooms often reflect different parts of your life. Dream symbols are personal — the emotion you felt in the dream matters more than the symbol itself.
Common interpretation
Most dream dictionaries and psychologists who work with dreams read a house as the self; different rooms often reflect different parts of your life. Recurring dreams tend to fade once the waking-life issue is addressed.

Which room was I in, and what happens there in my life? Write the answer down within a few minutes of waking — dream memory fades fast.
