Hey everyone. I don't normally lucid dream, and rarely do I have recurring dreams. This isn't a recurring dream per say...instead, I realized last night, while in a dream, that the house in the background was insanely familiar. And as I've thought over it today and went through my dream journals, it's been there in the background for the last several months. The dreams change, they're all over the place. But the house is a constant. I've been inside, I've been outside, I know this thing almost like the back of my hand. It was a sudden shock to realize that I not only knew I was asleep, but while in the dream, to realize that this was eerily familiar. Now, I've not seen this house before...it's not my childhood house, nor my current house...I can't even say it's anything I've seen before. If I have, it's one that I've not registered. Any suggestions on why this house keeps reappearing? It's a massive old house, with the stone walls on the porch, and two stone lions 'guarding' the walk-way up. It's pretty unique, all things considered.
A house in a dream usually represents your self. It's very common to dream about the same (fictional) house all the time. The house represents you and your experiences. Here is some more information about houses in dreams.
