Personal symbolism
A roof can represent a high vantage point as well as shelter and protection. Finding yourself on one points toward success, but fear of falling makes that rise feel insecure. A roof giving way brings a sudden threat, while repairing or building one connects effort with increasing fortune. Sleeping on a roof gives the image a feeling of safety from enemies and false companions, alongside robust health. Notice whether you were exposed, working, or resting above the house. Your action on the roof changes whether it feels like achievement, vulnerability, repair, or security.
