Hiding
Avoidance, protection, shame
Yellow
Intellect, joy, caution
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.
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.
