Dream Symbol · Universal Language of Mind
state of mind
A 'House' in a dream represents your state of mind. This is one of the most foundational symbols in the Universal Language of the Mind. Every house, building, and structure represents the condition of your mind -- the mental space within which your thoughts exist and operate. The different floors of the house represent the different levels of mind. The first floor represents the conscious mind. The second floor represents the subconscious mind. The third floor, attic, or roof represents the superconscious mind. The basement represents the unconscious -- what you are completely unaware of. Pay attention to every detail of the house. Its size reflects how expansive your state of mind is. Its condition reflects the health of your mental state. The rooms you are in represent specific areas of your consciousness. What is happening inside the house reveals what is happening inside your mind. When a house shows up in your dream, it is a direct mirror of your current mental state. Examine the house carefully and honestly assess what it is reflecting about your consciousness. If the house is beautiful and well-maintained, your mind is in good condition. If it needs work, so does your thinking. You are the architect and the maintenance crew of your own inner house. Keep it in order.
