A reoccurring house-adjacent dream I've been having lately is one where I'm back in college. We're all returning to campus after summer break and it's a few days before we all settle into classes. Throughout the dream, I'm with my college friends and towards the end, I realize that I don't have a roommate for the dorm I've committed to while everyone else has figured out who they're living with
In some initial research, the reflections that resonated were that I'm feeling a sense of uncertainty about aspects of my life and that I'm at the cusp of significant change that's unfolding. The sentiment of feeling excluding in my waking life resonates a bit less
I like to focus dream elements first and foremost on our inner reality. Needing a roommate makes me wonder about feeling companioned with another part of ourself that can be with us through the change that is unfolding. Perhaps you're desiring an inner resource that can be with you, cohabitate, that compliments. I think an interesting exercise would be to consider: what kind of roommate might this be? What are their qualities? What would you be looking for at that time in your life? Once identified, you can work to more consciously bring in those skills, qualities, etc during this time of life.
