House
Self, psyche, identity
Jewelry
Value, identity, relationships
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.
Jewelry
Jewelry represents self-worth, personal adornment, and the value you place on yourself and your relationships. Rings specifically relate to commitment and relationships. Necklaces suggest what you display publicly. Hidden jewelry indicates private values. Losing jewelry reflects fear of losing something precious — a relationship, identity, or self-worth. Inherited jewelry connects to family legacy.
