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.
Window
Windows in dreams represent your outlook on the world, consciousness, and the boundary between inner and outer experience. Looking through a window suggests observation without participation. A broken window may indicate shattered perceptions, while an open window invites new air and fresh perspectives into your life.
