Inside – To dream of being inside a house or building is a sign of safety. You may have this dream symbol appear in your dream for a number of reasons. If you dream that you are hiding in the house from an enemy, this indicates a feeling of a threat that you have in your life. On the other hand, if you dream of staying inside instead of going outside and going on a journey you want to take or know you should take, this indicates complacency. This is a dream signal to you that you are falling into the trap of choosing what is safe and known over what is unknown. While this strategy can protect you from pain and heartache, it also prevents you from growing or doing anything new with your life. Take seriously the warning about stagnation, especially if your fears are keeping you inside rather than allowing you to grow in the sunlight.
