A pole in the middle of the floor

I am female and when I was a child I had a recurring dream of an empty room with floorboards and a thick pole down the middle.

This childhood dream suggests that you felt a lot of sadness or disappointment early in life. The empty room reveals a lack of opportunities or an inability to connect with certain people. It may even be a reflection of depression or anxiety issues, possibly stemming from issues within your family. The thick pole at the center of the room, then, represents a desire for stability or strength. It may even be the manifestation of your own internal courage to fight your demons and find happiness.
