Fighting
Fighting in dreams represents conflict — with others, with yourself, or with aspects of your situation. The opponent reveals the nature of the conflict: fighting a stranger may represent internal conflict with your shadow, fighting a known person reflects real-life tension, fighting a monster represents battling overwhelming fears. The ability to fight back indicates your sense of agency in dealing with conflict.
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.
