Dream about a law firm and a school?

First, I was seeking employment in what looked like a law firm. It had those nice cherry banisters flowing with a staircase. There was an older woman who at first seemed very helpful and willing to rent me the space, then after she got one of my references, she refused to help me.

Then is shifted to what seemed to be a school. I felt a bit on the outside, as something of a teacher, and there was a circle of other teachers having a meeting. One blonde woman in particular seemed very nice to me, and she seemed popular within this school. I was also looking at something in what seemed to be the school's gift shop, and a tall, blonde man said hello, and I got shy but said hello back.

Any ideas?

The first part about the law firm could represent that you don't have enough knowledge to succeed in some situation. (represented by the woman who eventually refused to help you ~ & the stairs, which were in sight but you didn't go to ascend them.) The fact that it is a woman who refuses to help you (could represent your feminine side) may mean that you need to employ your masculine energy traits to succeed.

The second part of dream with school ~ schools can represent learning ~ looking at the gift shop could represent that you are 'shopping' for what type of knowledge you will need to succeed in the first part of the dream.
The blonde people could represent your feminine & masculine sides. The fact that the male was in the gift shop could represent that you need to employ more of your masculine energy to succeed in whatever it is you are trying to succeed in.
Good luck. I hope you succeed.
