The Bedside Dream Dictionary

by Silvana Amar
In daily life we hide from things that we don’t want to deal with or we hide from danger. As children we played the game of “hide and go seek,” while as adults we enjoy “chase and discovery.” The emotional tone of your dream will reveal its meaning.

If you are hiding out of danger, then you should consider those things in your life that propose a threat to you. They could be internal forces or environmental conditions. Generally, we attempt to hide our own negativity and mistakes. This dream may call for an honest reflection on personal characteristics and an evaluation of how much fear influences our lives and decision-making.
