This is timely, as I had a house dream just last night…. In the dream I was living in the countryside in a modest house. My husband commissioned an architect to help reconstruct it to better meet our needs. I felt intimidated by the architect initially because I worried I wouldn’t have any insight to contribute. However I also felt strongly that the house needed more windows in the front and an expansive front porch. (In waking life I have always been taken by front porches, especially in southern homes). The architect suggested the same, and I was heartened that we shared the same idea.

This figure feels a bit archetypal with a title like "the architect". I would approach this as an inner figure, a part of yourself that holds wisdom, knowledge and insight.

The architect of the psyche, who can safely build and expand the indwelling structures of one's self, also agrees with your perspective. Perhaps there is more alignment with where you're wanting to grow and develop than you recognize on a conscious level.

What does more windows and an expansive front porch represent for you, what does it feel like when you see those qualities in a home?
