The space above the dream house, often associated with old memories, forgotten things, or higher aspirations.
An attic in a dream—by superstition, means old memories, to that which has long been put away. In contrast to the basement, an attic often symbolizes a lighter, less frightening level of the unconscious—forgotten but non-traumatic memories, or, conversely, higher ideals and aspirations that have not yet been realized. It is a space of memory and potential simultaneously.
Nostalgia, curiosity, a light dusty sadness
Often arrives in moments of taking stock, nostalgia, or reconsidering long-held, delayed aspirations. Perhaps there is something from the past in this attic—a dream, a talent, an idea—that is worth getting out and examining anew.
Remember one interest or hobby from childhood or youth that has long been put away, and think about whether there is a way to bring at least a little of it back into your life.
