Basic meaning: The self; your self image

(1) The house or other building may be a symbol of yourself. Going upstairs may mean going into the "head" - that is, the layer of the mind where rational thinking takes place. Cellars may represent the unconscious. Different parts of the house may be different ages, different emotions, different complexes, etc., the modern representing the conscious ego, the oldest the deepest layers of the unconscious - what Jung called the "collective unconscious").

If the house feels cramped, this might indicate frustration. Is some part of you not developed, not yet integrated into consciousness? What is keeping this or that instinct or emotion repressed?

(2) A house may represent your self-image: how you see yourself, or how you want to be seen by the world, or what you want from life.

(3) If the house is your parental home, what you feel in the dream may say a lot about your childhood feelings - about your parents, for instance.

(4) The different rooms of a house may symbolize the different emotions or complexes. Not being able to go into a particular room may indicate there is some aspect in your life that is not yet open to your conscious mind. When you acknowledge these emotions, you will be able to enter into the room in your dreams.

Jung distinguishes between the more superficial and deeper layers of the unconscious mind and calls them respectively 'the personal unconscious" and 'the collective unconscious". The personal unconscious consists of thoes things that have been repressed, rejected from consciousness; it is therefore something that has build up during the individual's lifetime. The collective unconscious, on the otherhand, is older than the individual and indeed older than consciousness: it consists of 'the whole spiritual heritage of mankind's evolution born anew in the brain-structure of every individual".

{Do not be misled by the words "brain-structure": the collective unconscious should not be thought of as situated in the head; it includes emotions and instincts and, although it cannot be pinned down to any particular location in the body, it might be more helpful to think of it as in the solar plexus region rather than in the head}.

Dreams of a spouse having an affair with no real reason to be suspicious should be seen as your own possible insecurities. Look to the possibility of the unconscious mind wanting/needing to expose itself in a manner that uses an affair as a way to inform the conscious mind.
