Darkness
Darkness in dreams represents the unknown, the unconscious mind, and fear of what you cannot see. Complete darkness suggests being 'in the dark' about something important. Fear of the dark reflects fear of the unconscious and its contents. However, darkness can also be a womb-like, protective state — a necessary emptiness before new creation. The response to darkness (fear vs. acceptance) is diagnostically important.
Office
Offices represent your professional life, work identity, and the structures you operate within. A familiar office reflects your current work situation. An unfamiliar office suggests new professional territory. A messy office indicates professional disorganization, while an empty office may represent career emptiness or the end of a professional chapter. Corner offices and cubicles carry additional hierarchical meaning.
