Building
Building in dreams represents the active construction of your life, identity, or projects. What you're building and its condition reflect your creative efforts. Building a house suggests constructing your identity. Building with others represents collaborative creation. A building collapsing mid-construction suggests fear of failure or undermined efforts. The tools and materials used add additional meaning.
Number Three
Three represents the creative principle, expression, and the resolution of duality into synthesis. The trinity archetype appears in countless traditions: Father/Son/Spirit, Maiden/Mother/Crone, past/present/future. In dreams, three often represents the beginning, middle, and end of something, or the mind-body-spirit connection. Three objects or events suggest a pattern or a message about creative expression.
