Ever dream of rising flood waters? That’s actually a fairly common dream, especially for women. It’s especially common for women because water in dreams tends to be connected to our emotions and we of the fairer sex tend to be pretty emotional creatures! Below is a perfect example of how rising water in a dream is not only showing us our current emotional state but how it can also be a very serious warning we need to pay attention to.
Dear Lauri,
Last night I dreamed I was standing in flood water. It was rising and rising and it was really cold. I was trying to move through it and realized I was naked! What does this mean? – Lisa, Milwaukee, WI
Lauri: Is someone around you giving you the cold shoulder or just plain emotionally cold? Or are you the one that has grown cold towards someone else? Sounds like you are in a pretty icy situation in waking life! The flood waters suggest you feel this situation is getting worse. You are trying to move through the water because you must be trying to just get through this
situation already and the nakedness may mean you aren’t sure how to protect yourself emotionally from this. Or perhaps you are feeling a bit exposed or vulnerable. Your dream is giving you an honest portrayal of your current circumstances so you can better know how to handle them.
Lisa replies: My mother in law has been with us for two weeks and is driving me insane. She just left this morning but she comes for weeks at a time and it’s too much. It wears on me and makes me feel like I can’t be myself at home or do my “usual” things like watch TV and chill. Her longest stay was a month last year. It’s making me nuts. nuts. nuts. I now know I need to get the balls to tell my husband that this isn’t working for me anymore and she can’t come for that long! Thank you!
Like Lisa’s dream, your dreams are trying to help you improve your current circumstances as well. When faced with a problem you don’t know how to handle, just look to your dreams because they truly do hold all the answers. After all, your dreams are coming from you – the deepest, wisest part of you – so they naturally know what is best for you! When you can understand your dreams you can make huge, positive and lasting changes in your life, in your relationships, in your behavior and in your personal world. My latest book Dream on It will help you easily understand the messages your dreams are giving you so you can get an edge in life.
“Your book has been so helpful. I’m seeing my dreams in a much different light. I can’t believe how simple the symbology is once you get the hang of it. “ – Patricia, Chico, CA
dream house flooding are not good as mentioned in https://myjawab.com/meant-dream-interpretation-house-flooding/
Hello,
I dreamed i was at my old home where i grew up and the only person with me was my ex and he was trying to apologize and all that while a huge surge of rain started to rush up into the house. Luckily, im quick on my feet and grabbed things to stop the water,closing it off like a barrier. Then all of a sudden the flooding ceased and it was calm. i woke up afterwards.
It’s like, one minute I’m relieved to hear from my ex then the next minute very scared that I’ll die from this flood.
I dreamt that my family was out driving through the hillside overlooking (the ocean or a large lake). Suddenly muddy, rushing, rising water started to cover the road in front of our car. We stopped upon a hill and watched the angry rising water. At first I was scared so I climbed upon a electric pole to escape the flood but the water never got up to the hill where were stranded. A large crowd gathered (residents living in the area and motorist), people were chatting and the mood was lighthearted and gay almost like a party. The flood water quickly subsided; no one was hurt. I asked one of the residents who lived in the area if this kind of flooding occurred often and he laughed and showed me a detached garage he built when he moved to the area. He said it cost $60,000.
Yes i had a dream that I was drowning my kids in the water but in a casket then woke up sterical
Its so weird that i received this emailing this morning because last night i had a dream that i was casually driving my car when suddenly i crashed into a swimming pool. i sat in my car thinking great as i sank further and further, and btw this wasnt your average swimming pool it seemed like it was a hundred feet deep, but with beautiful crystal clear water. i woke up just as the car started filling with water.
Like I say: "Don't just say yes, no or I'm fine when you really aren't sure or need help."-This a perfect example of that!
I do have a question regarding the nature of our dreams. I find it's quite a shame that we just do not instinctively know what our dreams really mean! We spend much our time ignoring them dismissing htem as "just a dream''" or "it's was only a nightmare. Just thin happy thoughts or take a sleeping pill and go back to sleep". But in reality, that's not what is good for us! I think also too many of us interpret our dreams the wrong ways, even OTHER so-called "dream experts" get it wrong!
So do you think we are all engrained with an ability to know what our dreams mean we just have either lost that ability or are ignoring it? I ask because I have a pretty elaborate theory that we DO it's just people got out of touch with that ability as our lives shifted into the more 'get up and go" type of lifestyle.
If we really didn't know, why would we even dream in the first place?
Also, did you get my email?
Hi there Lauri, I really need you to help me interpret my dream! I am engaged and is currently living with my fiance. The first dream I had was on my wedding day, but I ran away because I did not want to marry my fiance and I cried to my mother before I enter the aisle and took off. My second dream was very weird. I was at the ocean with some friends and there were big scary waves coming towards the shore and we did get wet. Suddenly, I’m at a house that was flooded and people were chasing after me. Then the house finally dried up after I was being chased and I saw my fiance. I told him that I can not marry him and he looked sad. Please please respond back!
Thank You
-Bella
I used to frequently have dreams where I started out at a beach house on a cliff over the ocean. It started out with slight choppy waves, then progressed to bigger waves, then tidal waves with sharks. Soon, the beach house was destroyed and I was thrown in, struggling, gasping for air. I used to wake up panicked. About 5 years ago, I divorced after 22 years of marriage. I have since remarried. Now when I have water dreams, I’m floating on a raft down a lazy river with very few waves.
