An abandoned house is a symbol that cannot be described in a few words and in one dream book. To understand why such stories are dreamed of, you need to analyze all the information that your subconscious has conveyed to you through a dream. Sometimes it happens that a seemingly insignificant detail seen in a dream changes the entire picture of the upcoming event.
Miller's Dream Book
Gustav Miller believed that an abandoned house seen in a dream means failures in business and problems where, it would seem, there should not be any. Also, you should pay attention to your health if you dreamed that you were under the rubble of a building that had collapsed over time.
Now, only if you, having found yourself in a dream in a room forgotten by people and time, see that this is your father’s house, you should not worry about interpretations. Such visions mean receiving good news from childhood friends.
Why do you dream about moving to an old house?
- In general, moving to an old house means a change of scenery. Seeing the house into which the sleeping person is moving intact, with large windows and painted shutters, is a sign of the long-awaited acquisition of your own home or the change of an old home to a more suitable one.
- Moving to an old house in a hurry promises urgent business trips. Again, if the house they are moving into is strong and well-kept, then business trips will be successful and bring profit to the person. If the house is dilapidated and frail, then the trip will not bring the desired results. And if the house is dirty, then health problems are possible during the trip, and there is a high probability of ending up in the hospital.

Seeing yourself living in the ruins of a hostel is a sign that you miss your past life. And if in a dream you saw yourself moving to live from a rich mansion into a dilapidated building, then this indicates that you have accumulated a lot of unfinished business that is complicating your existence.
