Bridge
Bridges represent transitions, connections between two states of being, and the act of overcoming obstacles. Crossing a bridge symbolizes moving from one phase of life to another. A broken bridge may indicate fear of change or feeling unable to make a necessary transition. Building a bridge suggests creating connections and solutions.
House
Houses are one of the most significant dream symbols, almost always representing the dreamer's self or psyche. Different rooms represent different aspects of personality: the attic represents higher consciousness and memories, the basement represents the unconscious and repressed material, bedrooms represent intimate aspects of self, and the kitchen represents nourishment and creativity. The condition of the house reflects your self-perception.
