Discovery has a negative meaning, as in finding out about something that has been concealed, and a positive meaning, as when one makes a new discovery.

Dream discoveries in the second sense may show the dreamer is entering into a new phase of life or a new phase of personal development, such as recovery from a major upheaval.
