(Retreat, Sanctuary) A hermitage in a dream represents a spiritual retreat, abstinence, good character, seclusion, ascetic detachment, controlling one's desires and wants, divorcing one's wife, abandoning one's friends, or it could mean an illness. If a sick person sees himself in a hermitage in a dream, it may mean his death, or it could mean suppressing one's sexual desires. Occupying a hermitage or building one in a dream means rising in station. A beautiful and newly built hermitage in a dream represents a wife. A hermitage in a dream also could mean migration, bewilderment, severing a friendship, hiding, power, or it could represent one's son. Whatever may affect a hermitage in the dream could also manifest in the life of one's son. (Also see Retreat, Temple)
