I was in a large house with many rooms. It seemed familiar, but it is not a house I recognize in real life. I was sitting or kneeling (maybe praying?)at a creamy white upholstered bench at the foot of a king-sized bed in a beautiful bedroom decorated in creamy white and gold. There was a soft, warm glow in the room, which may have been what caused everything to appear creamy... like track lighting or light coming from the walls. There was a long window to the left of the bedroom door through which I could see a hallway, entrances to other rooms, and the upstairs landing. It was very quiet and peaceful in this room. There were people moving about the house and going up and down the stairs, but no one else came into this room. I saw the owner of the house on the landing, and I went out to ask him if I would be imposing if I used this room. He said that this would be the perfect place for me, and he added, “This window will allow you to see what is going on in the house.” It seemed like a spiritual dream. Thank you...

Ellen,
In dreams the house if the dreamer, or some vital aspect of the dreamer. The final statement of the dream probably addresses what the dream is about: This window will allow you to see what is going on in the house. The window would most likely be a portal to your unconscious, a mechanism to help you see clearly yourself and your life. I get the impression the dream may be offering a look at other aspects of your life {I could see a hallway, entrances to other rooms, and the upstairs landing}, perhaps other than those perceived notions of how you view your life. The room you are in that is quite and peaceful {rooms would be the different aspects of your psyche}, this is a place, perhaps psychological, perhaps real, that you feel most comfortable in your life.

Enter the masculine. At first my thought is you may need permission from a masculine source {an aspect of your psyche or even a real male person}. But I believe this inclusion of the masculine is a balancing of yin and yang. He, the masculine is suggesting you be in this special place and is not an opposite or negative force. If your masculine aspect supports the feminine {you] then there is that balance in life we all strive for.

This could be a spiritual dream. Is spirituality important to your life? Could your spirituality be that special room within you? For many, including myself, the spiritual aspect is a special part of life. It also goes hand in hand with the creative aspect {the creative aspects gives of oneself, gives to others}.

At 53 you are most likely have examined your life {mid-life transition} and are now finding what it is that provides balance and harmony. This special room is most likely a very positive aspect that fulfills that desire for balance and harmony. Look at your life and determine what it is that this room represents. And then focus your energies on that aspect.
