Hide
An animal's hide often touches durable profit and steady work — the tough outer covering that endures and provides. The dream may ask where lasting, reliable employment is grounding you, what protective toughness you're drawing on, and whether concealing something might risk a secret slipping out and being talked of as suspicious.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for hide, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of the hide of an animal, denotes profit and permanent employment.
Fontaine, 1862
To dream of concealing anything by hiding it, or putting it in an out-of-the-way place, is a sign that some one will reveal a secret that you have told. It is a bad omen for lovers to dream of hiding things, as it predicts that their intimacy will be talked about as suspicious.
