Interpretation 2 — Martha Clarke

Museums represent our past history. They exhibit the most important events in our lives. On the other hand, they are also a symbol of refinement and good taste. In this sense, they reflect a cultural concern and the possibility to enjoy profound things. Your oneiric museum can also reflect your personality with symbols of your psychological characteristics, which you may observe from an objective point of view. You should analyze your reaction to the content of the museum.

Things from your past that are preserved or still lingering (memories, emotions, judgments, etc.).

The importance of whatever is represented by the museum’s contents.

The idea of being unused, untouched, untouchable, or unattainable (like the items in a museum).

The idea of something being perceived as out of date or obsolete (or a fear of such).

Reverence for (or even “worship” of) people or things from the past.
