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.
Letter or Package
Letters and packages represent messages from the unconscious, anticipated news, or revelations. An unopened letter suggests something you need to acknowledge. A letter from someone specific carries their energy and unresolved matters. A mysterious package represents unknown opportunities or surprises. The act of opening mail symbolizes being receptive to new information and insights.
