Courtroom in a dream: meaning

What dream books say

Standing in a courtroom is a classic image of being judged. Tradition reads it as self-judgement and guilt, or as a conflict where you want to be heard fairly — a symbol, not a legal matter. Being the defendant points to feeling blamed, while being the judge suggests weighing someone else’s actions. Being found innocent is read as relief and vindication. Waiting for a verdict that never comes points to unresolved doubt about a choice.
