Hiding

Hiding in a dream reflects your feeling that you are (or someone else is) hiding in some area of your (or their) waking life, often in a personal or professional context. Hiding in dreams, like many action symbols, is a "literal" symbol, in that "hiding" is the precise action, but the environment and/or circumstances for hiding are symbolic. Ask yourself where you feel as if you (or another) is hiding in your (their) waking life. If still uncertain, look to other clues in the dream. Does it occur in a personal or professional environment? Can you identify who or what you (or the other) are hiding from?  If there is a pursuer (the person/thing from which you are hiding) is unfamiliar or unlikely (such as an alligator, celebrity or ghost), look for its meaning in our dream dictionary.  Focus on main attributes of what/whom you are hiding from, and do not allow the smaller details of the pursuer to distract you from its waking life identity.

Similarly, if you are hiding an object in a dream, ask yourself if it is literal (from your present waking life) or symbolic. What is it that you don't want others to see or know about?
