Dream Symbol: water

water

Water can have many different meanings, depending on context:

  • Satisfaction or quenching
  • Ability to adapt or accommodate, as water assumes the shape of its container.
  • Pervasiveness or ability to have far reaching effects, as water naturally flows and spreads into its surroundings
  • Water that is flowing or changing shape can represent change, transformation, or movement forward in the dreamer's life—possibly out of the dreamer's control

Tips to Understand Dream Meaning

Dream symbol meanings are different for each person. It's IMPORTANT to consider:

  • Personal meaning - What the dream symbol means to you, what it reminds you of, how it makes you feel.
  • Context - How the dream symbol appears in the dream. For example, in a dream about a bee - what was the bee doing, how and where it was doing it, and how did you feel about it?
  • Look beyond the obvious - A dream is often about something other than its obvious meaning. Physical events in the dream commonly represent mental or emotional matters.
