Brown
Dark brown in a dream represents purging of negative thoughts, emotions, habits, and life situations. Some area of your life where you are getting rid of a problem. Unpleasant or undesirable situations are being fixed or improved. Cleansing of negativity. Observing improvements or progress. Something you don't need or want to get rid of. Feeling better off without something in your life.
Negatively, light brown may indicate that you are really sensitive about not being able to get rid of something when you are really motivated to. A strong dislike for needing to stop something, discontinue a bad habit, or fear of big change. Unpleasant, embarrassing, or dangerous losses.
The color light brown is symbolic of a genuine desire to get rid of something negative. Good intentions to want to fix a problem or be rid of a problem. Feeling optimistic or enthusiastic about getting rid of a problem. Problems that feel good getting rid of. Feeling good being faster in your life without something.
Example: An older man dreamed of seeing a woman sitting on a dark brown couch and then going and sitting on the couch beside her. In waking life a girl he knew from his past wanted to get married to him and then he decided to do it. The brown couch may have reflected his feelings about being comfortable getting rid of his single life. "Purging" his life of bachelor style behavior.
Example 2: A police man dreamed of seeing 3 cigarette lighters turn into a black and brown snake. The black and brown snake may have reflected his feelings about needing to professionally get rid of a corrupt criminal. The brown color represented the need to get rid of or arrest the criminal problem.
