If the lake is muddy and agitated, it is a symbol of emotions that are out of control in a difficult situation. If the water is calm and clear, the dream represents peace and balance.

The River

A river is a symbol of one’s path, reflecting the experience of life itself, with its movement and inertia, its twists and turns and fluidity. The dream represents how you deal with your own life and how you face obstacles.

If, in a dream, you are surrendering to the flow of a river, this may mean that you are facing internal or external forces over which you have no control.

Experiencing this can either indicate that you need to take more conscious action, or that there is nothing you can do and you need to let the situation flow.

If the river you dreamed of has clear and calm waters, you will benefit in both your family and professional life. If the river had a swift current, you will need to take care of yourself, get more involved in your own affairs. The dreamer foresees new experiences and short trips.

If you are floating on water, you will find yourself in an uncomfortable situation for a short time.

Crossing a rough river in a dream can indicate that you will face challenges in changing one behaviour in order to implement another. The dreamer also predicts that you may be facing an inner struggle.

A dead, polluted or contaminated river indicates stagnation or failure. If the river is dry, you will be disappointed in some way.

The Sea

The sea holds a duality that relates to both creativity and destruction. Seeing the sea in a dream represents your baggage of experience and may mean that you will achieve the fulfilment of what you desire. On the other hand, if you go to the sea in your dream, it could mean that you are certain of something.

The dream is a sign that there will be changes in your life, old dreams may come true, you may meet friends or a person you loved very much in the past. If the sea has rough waters, it could mean that changes will come suddenly and may be very emotional. If the sea in your dream is calm, everything in your life should happen in a normal way, which will keep you calm and emotionally well.

A dream in which you remain on or above the surface of the sea can indicate anxiety, emotional and mental problems. Drifting on the sea or disappearing into the abyss can indicate a poor mental state that needs urgent attention. Diving into the sea and observing marine life is a harbinger of creative pursuits and successful ideas.

Waterfall

Dreaming of a waterfall indicates a significant improvement in the financial sector. It can also symbolise some rapid changes, decisions, situations.

Swimming Pool

A dream about a swimming pool can symbolise restricted, disciplined or controlled emotions, feelings. Playing or diving in the pool can mean that you are ready for, or in need of, rest and relaxation. Swimming in a pool signifies some kind of damage, for example in relation to investments or misplaced feelings.

If the pool in your dream is filled with clean water, it is a sign that you are about to experience some pleasant surprises in your financial life, you will have opportunities to make a lot of money. If the water in the pool is dirty or muddy, you need to watch out for false friends around you. In your love life it could mean betrayal, neglecting your partner, trying to tear down your home and distancing yourself.

If you dream of drinking water from a swimming pool, it means that you will be standing on your wedding cake.

Washing, scrubbing

The dream is a representation of an existing need to get rid of what is already unnecessary. Give importance only to what is important to you. Worry more about yourself and stop trying to please everyone. Get rid of the mask and take control of your life.

Taking a shower

If you took a shower in your dream and the water was warm or hot – you can count on sincere friends. However, if bathing causes discomfort or pain, a break-up is possible.

Bathing in water

Bathing in water means purity, peace and harmony in your life. It is a sign that your worries are gone and you are relaxed.
Bathing in fresh water is a harbinger of wonderful love.

Bathing in crystal clear water means that you are cleansed – of suspicion, bad intentions, etc.

Swimming

If you swim in calm waters in your dream, expect a pay rise or a long-awaited holiday.

And if you swim in dirty and murky water, e.g. with a lot of mud, it means failure. If you dip your feet in a pool of murky water, it means a lot of pleasure.
