In many homes, the living room is the main room for socializing. In dreams it can be a setting for depicting the image of yourself that you want others to see—your social image or persona. It can be a setting that shows how you see yourself, your self-image, or how you think people perceive you, which can be different from reality. A living room can have symbolic meaning similar to that of a front door, a boundary between your public and personal life. Guests who come to your home are welcome in the living room, but might not be welcome in your bedroom, for example. They’re welcome to see the public version of you, but not the private version. See: Doors Of course, a living room can be a popular room in your house, a place where you spend a lot of time, and a dream that takes place in your living room might refer to a recent event or something that commonly occurs there, such as talking with family members. A living room might not have specific symbolism, but instead simply be a setting for telling a story about your life. A living room can be used to describe your living situation. For example, a messy living room can symbolize a messy living situation, not just physically but maybe also personally or emotionally. A clean and orderly living room can reflect a clean and orderly life. Dreaming about a living room in a home where you used to live can refer to that time of your life. Something from that time is relevant to the present, such as a pattern that started or idea that took root. See also: Buildings, Doors, Home
