There is a kind of symbolic differentiation between the court and the forest. Theseus is in charge in the court, and Oberon is in charge of the forest. Although both visit the other's domain, it is clear that they are visitors. It is possible to think of the court as representing rationality, control, and social stability, and the forest as representing irrationality, magic, and licentiousness.

Yes, the settings in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" symbolize different aspects of the characters' experiences and emotions. The Athenian court represents order and reason, while the forest embodies chaos, freedom, and the irrationality of love. The contrast between these settings highlights the themes of reality versus illusion, and control versus unpredictability.
