Hiding
Avoidance, protection, shame
Rabbit
Fertility, luck, speed
Hiding
Hiding in dreams represents avoidance, the desire for protection, or shame about something in your life. What you're hiding from reveals what you're avoiding in waking life. Successfully hiding may indicate relief from pressure, while being found despite hiding suggests that avoidance isn't working. Hiding someone else may represent protecting someone or concealing a secret.
Rabbit
Rabbits symbolize fertility, abundance, quick thinking, and luck. The rabbit's ability to reproduce rapidly makes it a universal fertility symbol. In many cultures, the rabbit represents good fortune. A rabbit running may indicate the need for quick action or a tendency to run from problems. The 'rabbit hole' concept represents going deeper into the unknown or into obsessive thinking.
