Rainbows appear after storms and universally symbolize hope, promise, and beauty emerging from difficulty. A rainbow in a dream may indicate that a difficult period is ending and beauty is ahead. In Biblical tradition, the rainbow represents God's promise. In many cultures, the rainbow is a bridge between earth and heaven. The full spectrum of colors represents wholeness and the integration of all aspects of self.

Windows in dreams represent your outlook on the world, consciousness, and the boundary between inner and outer experience. Looking through a window suggests observation without participation.
