Dreaming about rainbow colors is often a rich tapestry of emotions, symbols, and experiences, evoking feelings of joy and hope. Rainbows, with their splendid array of colors, can represent a variety of meanings in dreams, rooted deeply in cultural symbolism and spirituality. In many traditions, a rainbow is seen as a bridge between the earthly and the divine, a sign of promise after the storm.
The beautiful spectrum of colors can reflect the many facets of life itself—love, happiness, peace, and rejuvenation. Each hue in a rainbow may carry its unique message, echoing your personal journey, desires, or insights.

Seeing oneself as a dream interpreter in a dream, and if one qualifies to sit on the bench, it means that he will become a judge. If he is seeking knowledge, he will acquire it. If he is seeking to become a physician, he will become one.
Otherwise, he might become a money changer, a banker or any of the earlier mentioned trades. Telling a dream interpreted a dream in one’s dream, and if the explanation agrees with the common wisdom and religious norms of the Holy Qur’an and the traditions of God’s Prophet, upon whom be peace, then whatever one is told in his dream is true. If one does not understand the explanation of the dream interpreter in his dream, then he might need to find a qualified interpreter in wakefulness to satisfy his needs.
