Dreamers Dictionary

by Garuda
Vision: Seeing the top of a house, the roof, in flames (above you): a warning of impending danger. Walking toward a house where the roof is on fire: it is better to retreat in a present situation.

(Sometimes the dream also signals a sinus infection in the making). Seeing smoke coming from a chimney: your affairs are taking a turn for the better. Standing in front of a (brightly burning) fire: success.

Depth Psychology: Fire and water always symbolize emotional energy’. Fire is cleansing. Seeing bright flames means new ideas.

The Element Encyclopedia

To set something on fire by accident suggests intense emotions and / or passionate sexual feelings. Alternatively, it may suggest that you need to take time off for yourself and relax, or that your unconscious is alerting you to the need for a smoke alarm.
