Even today, when less than two percent of Americans work on farms, barns persist as talismans for a Jeffersonian vision of the U.S. as a nation of small farmers. American barns have stood for generations as symbols of prosperity, rectitude, and sustained connection to the land.
A house is universally regarded as a symbol of protection, comfort, and stability. It represents a personal space, one’s inner psyche, and the body. The different rooms in a house can signify different aspects of one’s personality and life. For instance, the attic often represents hidden memories, whilst the basement might symbolize subconscious feelings or fears. A house in a dilapidated condition often symbolizes feelings of despair and sadness, indicating a negative state of mind.
