He means it's a place of illusion and darkness.Nietzsche has a different take on it obvious in Thus Spoke Zarathustra.He sees the cave as a place of enlightenment and learning.A place you fight monsters(metaphorical) to obtain truth in a playful and joyous manner.
The cave overall represents delving into the depths of the human mind.Delving into uncertainty.
