A house in a dream is a reflection of the self. If you find yourself moving back into an old home and you're not happy about it, it's a sure sign that you feel as if you are headed backwards in your waking life or career.

Upper floors and rooftops symbolize higher functions, such as consciousness, thinking, and spiritual perspective. Basements and cellars represent subconscious feelings and awarenesses. Large houses with many rooms may be metaphors for extended family lines. Mansions in dreams are often representations of wealth and money.

Discovering new rooms in a house-typically a pleasant dream-reflects the rediscovery of "lost" aspects of the self. This dream is common in women who have sacrificed personal hobbies and passions (painting, music, desires to own a small business) for the responsibilities of parenting. It's time to reconnect with your passion!
