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.
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.
