Alcohol
Alcohol in dreams represents altered states, social lubrication, celebration, or escape from reality. Drinking socially may reflect your relationship with relaxation and social connection. Being drunk suggests loss of control or lowered inhibitions. For those in recovery, alcohol dreams are extremely common and can represent both fear of relapse and the processing of past behavior.
Yellow
Yellow represents mental clarity, optimism, joy, and caution. A bright yellow environment suggests intellectual stimulation and happiness. However, yellow can also indicate caution (yellow traffic lights) or cowardice. Faded or dirty yellow may suggest illness, decay, or betrayal. In many Eastern traditions, yellow is sacred — representing wisdom and the solar plexus chakra of personal power.
