Fighting
Fighting in dreams represents conflict — with others, with yourself, or with aspects of your situation. The opponent reveals the nature of the conflict: fighting a stranger may represent internal conflict with your shadow, fighting a known person reflects real-life tension, fighting a monster represents battling overwhelming fears. The ability to fight back indicates your sense of agency in dealing with conflict.
Furniture
Furniture represents the structures of your daily life — your comfort zone, habits, and the psychological 'furnishing' of your inner world. A well-furnished room suggests a well-ordered inner life. Empty rooms with no furniture indicate emptiness or the potential for new beginnings. Moving furniture suggests rearranging your life or priorities. Broken furniture represents broken routines or comfort zones.
