Dreaming about living in an apartment when you don’t really live in one can symbolize being in a temporary place in your life, or in a transition phase. Apartments are commonly associated with temporary dwellings, so think along the lines of anything that’s temporary. The idea applies quite often to relationships, especially romantic ones. If you dream about living in an apartment with someone you’re dating, but you don’t actually live together or live in an apartment, you know right away it’s symbolism. It’s likely to be a way of saying your relationship is in transition, or you know deep inside that the relationship is temporary. For example, a man who lives with his girlfriend dreams that they decide they should move out of their apartment. They actually live together in a house, a discrepancy with reality that stands out as symbolism. He walks into a scene where their roommates (completely fictional characters, another discrepancy with reality) lounge around as she packs their stuff and cleans. Seeing this, he kicks into gear and helps pack, thinking to himself that it’s a good idea for the two of them to move on. The dream reflects his thoughts about moving to the next phase of their relationship. He has lived the bachelor life, symbolized as the roommates, long enough. Moving out of the apartment in the dream means transitioning to a new way of thinking about the relationship as permanent. It’s something he senses his girlfriend is ready for, symbolized as her taking the initiative to pack. The idea of being in transition applies to yourself, too. People going through personal or life changes are known to dream more frequently about living in an apartment. It’s a way of saying “between places in life.” An apartment can symbolize being apart from someone. It can reflect being apart figuratively, such as when opinions differ or emotional connection is lacking. An apartment can mean “a part of,” as in getting good grades in school is a part of getting into a good college, and a good college is a part of what leads to getting good work afterward. Apartments can symbolize difficulty controlling your living space. Apartments are known for being close to neighbors, and neighbors are a variable that’s difficult to control. The symbolism of apartments can connect with the association that people live in them when they have limited personal and financial resources. Of course, living in an apartment can be driven by convenience and choice, too. When you dream about an apartment where you used to live, it can refer to that time of your life. Something started back then that continues today or is relevant to it. For example, a man has recurring dreams about living in his college apartment, a way of saying that years later he still lives like a college student. See also: Home, Movies
