New House Dream Meaning

Houses represent our emotions, and these are bizarre things, seeing weird stuff in our dream like a brand new house that we are either visiting or purchasing can pave the road in our psyche. Ancient folklore (and the dream books I have on my shelf) state that to dream about a new house is a great sign so good for you! 

What does it mean to dream of a new house?

As I have highlighted above whether you are building a new house, moving into a new house, or even wanting to purchase a new house in a dream it is a sign of bigger and better things for your life. Also, houses represent many layers in a person’s life. Colors in new house dreams are also very important. If you notice a strong color in your dream, such as the entire house is yellow or green, then you will also want to look into the meaning of the color specifically to see what they mean and conjoin it with your new house dream meaning.

As I said in the opening statement: A house represents our own emotions in life. To see the new house of your dreams is a symbol of getting something you want. Whether the house is new or used, in dreams this represents both our good and bad points and basically us as people. Old and dilapidated houses denote failure in business or any effort, and declining health. All dreams relating to a house often refer to various aspects of the self. When trying to analyze the house in your dream, consider also how the house is kept and the condition of it. The rooms in the house relate to facets of your personality. A house also does not always become your home, you need to make it yours. This is important in dreams. As the house represents you. You will make who you are. Life is busy, maybe you currently do not even have time to take a hot bath, but this dream calls for making peace with yourself. If the house in a dream is in desperate need of new furniture or is empty this indicates that you will eventually get what you want but it will take time.

I am Flo and for 20 years I have been studying dreams from a Jung perspective and also spiritually. A house as you will appreciate often goes up in value over the years. Often, the home spiritually is connected to your own feelings in life. Maybe you had a dream of a new home that is old, a new childhood residence, a new house falling apart, or even buying a brand new house. New houses can come in all shapes and sizes during our dream: small, large, grand, and normal. Over the last decade, the changes in the economy have seen the subprime mortgage market in complete chaos, and house prices have been in the media. The global financial institutions have seen almost seven trillion dollars wiped of stock in the 2008 crash. So, what does this mean in regard to dream psychology? Property prices are in the media and according to Sigmund Freud if an event is mentioned multiple times in the media we tend to have dreams. These can transpire into symbols we see in life.

House dreams, in general, will have more in-depth meanings for specific rooms and I have outlined the specific room meanings below. If the new house dream, you had focused on one area of the house, yard, or even the driveway. Another important detail of a new house dream is the condition of the house. If the house is in good repair, it is said that this is a good omen for you to receive money or an increase in stature. The reverse is true if there is work that needs to be done in the house.

What does the dream of specific rooms in a new house mean?

The rooms in a new home appear in your dream often in relation to primal urges or basic needs such as food, shelter, sexuality (reproduction), or financial means to care for these avenues in your life. Consider ways that you are not fully taking care of yourself or those around you that are holding you back. A living or dining room both represent social areas of the home and in a new house dream, they represent a desire to get to know people, networking in business, and making yourself available. If the dining room or living room is messy, there is a feeling that you need to take a look at areas where you are causing disarray in your own social life. It is also representative of problems between friends and that you need to invite their point of view into your life. Perhaps you are not seeing the bigger picture.

To dream of the kitchen or bathroom are reflective of areas in your life that you are not serving yourself. It is likely that you are taking on too much or that you need to tell someone no. Sometimes hallways can also represent a new path in life. To see an attic or balcony in your dream is a representation of needing to focus on your mind, spirituality, or connection to your higher self. This is also true if you are dreaming about an addition to a new house or adding on to a new house. These are all signs that you need to welcome new happenings in your life and to let go of the past. The basement has a similar meaning but is more geared towards your intuition or unconscious mind. If there is a new house with a basement in your dream you will find that there are issues in your life that you are suppressing. Also, pay attention (if you can remember) to whether or not the door was opened or closed. The door being open to a new house is a good sign about someone coming into your life. Usually, this will be in relation to a romance of some kind, being one that is good for you and likely long-term. A closed door to an inviting house is also a good sign with a similar meaning. A closed door with a fence indicates that you are not in a position for love, but that you desire it in your life. Consider ways in which you can attract love to your life – by making enough time or allowing yourself opportunities for love.

To dream of a cellar or basement (which I have already covered) represents your intuition and emotional state. Your intuition might warn you about something unpleasant that’s going to happen soon.
