To dream that you are in the living room or lounge represents the image that you portray to others and the way in which you go about your life. It is representative of your basic beliefs about yourself and who you are, as—like the bedroom—this is a room in which you tend to relax and be yourself.

If your dream living room is crowded, cramped and full of strange furniture, this suggests a lack of privacy.

If it is taken up with office furniture, this suggests absorption with career. Don’t assume that a trashed living room or even a coffin in the middle of it mean that you are on the path to self-destruction.

Dreams such as these are pointing to qualities within yourself that can be changed or corrected by adjustments to your attitude and approach to life. When a living room features in your dream, take notice of those things that make it special or pleasant, as these are things within you that make your life rewarding.

If the room is ugly, leaky or damaged, consider what parts of your life these dream images represent and how they can be cleaned up, repaired or changed.

When the entirety of the dream develops in your house, especially in the living room, it could point at the need to reunite more with your loved ones. As busy as you are, you will have to try not to lose sight of your family and friends, whose company is the basis for enjoying a balanced life.

A home is a symbol of the self. Each room in a home has a different specific meaning.

The living room is the consciousness of shared experiences. It relates to the parts of yourself that are less private and are accessible to the people you connect to in the world.
