Personal symbolism
School can bring ambition and memory together. Attending may point toward distinction in literary work, but imagining yourself young and back at school shifts the mood toward sorrow, reversals, and longing for the simple trusts and pleasures of earlier days. Teaching a school suggests striving for literary achievement while basic needs must come first. Visiting your childhood schoolhouse points to discontent and discouraging events overshadowing the present. Notice your age in the dream and whether you were learning, teaching, or revisiting. The role and setting help distinguish ambition from nostalgia or present dissatisfaction.
