Free Dream Symbols: Water, Rivers, Oceans and More

Dream Word Written On Beach Sand - Positive Thinking ConceptFree Dream Symbols: Water, Rivers, Oceans and Ice

Doug Addison

Hey Dreamers! People seem to love my blogs on dreams. So, here are some of my favorite water symbols to help you interpret dreams. If you are remembering your dreams, you are on the right track. The next step is to write them down and figure out what God is saying through them.

Symbols
Symbols do change from dream to dream, and from dreamer to dreamer. But there are common themes that you can apply to your dreams about water. Here is what I have found:

Water, oceans, beaches, rivers, ice
Water can represent aspects of spiritual life, while oceans often represent humanity. Beaches can symbolize people, because multitudes are compared to the grains of sand on a beach (see for example Genesis 22:17). But the beach can also represent a time of recreation, especially if you live near it.

Rivers can point to moves of God and it is important to recognize the context of the water. Is it moving fast or is it barely moving, almost still?

Ice and snow can represent things of the Spirit that are being saved for later.

Swimming
Swimming in water can represent the spiritual aspect of life. Although swimming can be good, notice the context of the water: is it clear or dirty, fast flowing or stagnant, or shallow or deep?

Context is key
The context of how you are swimming in water will help you understand more about what is happening with your spiritual life. Let’s look at context using swimming as our example.

If you are swimming in clear water, it means that your spiritual life is refreshing and life-producing. Swimming in dirty water indicates that some issues might need to be addressed or healed. If you are swimming in fast-flowing water, get ready for things to accelerate and get really exciting. Swimming in stagnant water indicates that you may be stuck and need to start moving again. If the water is shallow, this indicates that you might be too comfortable and need a challenge. Swimming in deep water shows that you are maturing spiritually and possibly taking more risks.

Of course, remember that these are generalizations.

More dream symbols
Here are some more symbols you might have encountered:

Boat:              organizations or personal job or ministry, depending on the type of boat
Bridge:           transition, season change
Dam:              things being held back, power
Fish:               sport, people, gift to help others, outreach-oriented
Floods:           major move of the Spirit, cleansing of old ways, warning of disaster
Ice:                 move of the Spirit that will come later, slippery time
Lighthouse:    spiritual guidance, keeps you from danger
Ocean, sea:    large move of the Spirit, humanity, great influence, many people
Oyster:            situation that may produce a spiritual blessing
Rain:               blessing, refreshing time in the spirit, unclear time, move of God
Swimming:     move in the spirit, recreation, spiritual life
Water:             the spirit, spiritual life, Holy Spirit, the spiritual realm, refreshment

Next steps
I would challenge you to keep a dream journal or a pad of paper next to your bed to write down your dreams right away. When you encounter a dream with some aspect of water, ask God to help you with the interpretation and use these key symbols just to start. You can find out more about dreams in my book Understand Your Dreams Now: Spiritual Dream Interpretation.

Keep dreaming!

Blessings,

    During worship in church I had a closed eye vision of Jesus pulling people, one at a time, up and out of icy cold waters, he had a towel ready and put it around the person to warm them and then he hugged him closely like a mother would a child to warm them up with his body heat and then he would bend down and extend his hand and pull up and out of the icy waters the next one repeating the same actions. I saw white snowy icebergs in this cold water .

    In my dream I was walking through a forest at the end of the forest I saw a big dam it had a bit reflection of a woman’s face on the surface of the dam. I was caring my dress in my hand and for some strange reason I spoke to the water asked it to remove all my old things I did in the past and threw the dress in the water. The water started moving in a form of a tornado and I ran people came out of the water they started to follow me the water too followed when the people Got to me they told me that they are here to serve me they will do whatever I say

    I recently had a dream about jumping into a river with Kendall Jenner, next thing I’m near her mum Chris who was talking with Jentzen Franklin about Jesus, the water started to move quicker and more people were being witnessed to but we were all Christians, next thing boom we accelerated so fast down the river and all I could say was there’s no way I can get back the force and power were too strong. That’s where my dream ended.

    Recently, I had a dream that I was me and coworker I was close with became close again. She had asked for a ride home. I went to take a route I was normally take but when I reached the bridge, the one side of the bridge there was a tunnel and it was filling up with dirty water. Man told me to stop and I saw a old women struggle to get out. So I helped her out but later on she had past away and the last thing I remember is looking at her body sitting upright on a shelve

    Hallo,
    Thanks for your insights, I have had the same dream almost twice, the first one ,we had started swimming with my family in a swimming pool but the water receded and had to relax or engage in another activity, the second one, I was in my high school swimming with my former schoolmates and I had started moving faster and once again the waters receded that no one would continue swimming, what could it be meaning, in both situations, I wasn’t worried but stayed calm, kindly assist.
    Thank you.

    I had a dream about 3 to 4 months ago about an ocean with no water. It was day light and I was on my hands and knees with my palms flat on the ocean floor. I remember saying out loud , “ what am I suppose to do now “ . There was someone there with me on my right hand side that I was directing that to. I did not see them or even tried to see them. Just knew they were there. After that I woke up. Don’t have any clue what my dream means.

    I dreamt of spring waters coming out in large form under a building, there were no sign of the water affecting the building or causing damping rather the owner with the family were enjoying the presence of the water, fish were all coming and swimming through, people were drinking from it. The water eroded a part of an old grave monument. A law was issued that forbid people from killing the fishes so that it will become a natural heritage, so they appointed a defensive minister to oversee everything.

    I had a dream, it was one a new one the second I’ve had with my bf in it. It was the night I had stayed up crying and sad for no reason just needed to cry but I was texting him being upset and saying we needed to change.. and I kept saying I don’t want to lose u… in my dream we were out at sea, idk why, but we were looking for something and we were holding onto the side of a boat and I told him, “I don’t want to die in the ocean, bodies decay much faster”. Two seconds later the look on his face of fear and pain was plastered all over him, I grabbed his hand asking what was wrong, we got dragged under. He was dead, I was gripping his hand being dragged deeper and deeper into the ocean and I started hallucinating. I knew he was dead but he started talking, saying : yea go ahead swallow all that water, I’ve probably defecated myself and it’s being dragged like u and me. Then it went black. It was one of the scariest dreams I’ve had in a long time, since I was a child. I realized that me not wanting to lose him made me have this dream of losing him in one of worst way possible. It scared me, it made me rethink a lot.

      Hey Jane! As Doug says, water is often symbolic of spiritual life. I would ask to pray and ask God to move in your life and let go of all fear. God has got you and all you need to do is call out to Him and trust Him. He is a good Father :).

    In my dream someone wants to shoot me with a gun and i managed to ran away and suddenly i jumped and i flu. I flu far from where i was and came to a strange place but everyone their is my relatives, that place is flowing with big clean and fast flowing rivers. They took me to a certain house and i told them what had happened to me, and also at the back of the house is the ocean, a very clean and deep. I can almost see things in it.

    I had a dream today, we was going on a road trip with my family, and my brothers and sisters, they was always playing around, but we got to this place where everybody was walking on the street, and next to the street on the left hand, there was a river, we were on a very high distance from the river, probably like the Niagara Falls River, but the water was not blue, it was brown, very dusty, and my brother and sister had came out of a bathroom, and as they were coming out, my sister fell in the river, I tried to get her by pulling her hair but it didn’t work out, only my parents were telling me to call 9-11, the rest of the people, they seemed as if they weren’t even there, they didn’t even say a word, I tried to call, after that I woke up

    This morning I had fallen back to sleep and a very weird dream occurred. I was walking in a place I had never seen before and I saw a hotel collapse. My dream then took me to the beach. The waves were bad but I continued my way in the water. God had parted the sea for me and I then noticed I was carrying a little boy. I was walking in the middle of the ocean. What does this mean ? Why was I carrying a child ?

At one time, I dreamt that I was chasing some woman who wanted to hurt my family but on coming back, I found my 2 children had drowned and died in shallow water and my husband was bitterly crying. On a recent occasion, I dreamt that I was by a large river with very clean fast moving water and all of a sudden..a large group of fish was moving with the fast currently. ..I left my now 4 month baby so I could catch the fish but while I was in the process I saw my baby drowning and being carried away by the water.help interpret this.

    I had a dream last night that I was in the ocean. A shallow part where I could reach and A HUGE wave came so I decided to hop up and ride it (in a fun way, no fear) and then all of the sudden the wave started taking me out to the very deep. It was carrying me away from land. When I realized it, I instantly got out of the wave and turn around to get to land but the water was kind of strong, not too strong, but as I turned around to see where the land was it instantly got dark. And I do mean instantly. I was out in the deep with no sense of direction and couldn’t see land anymore. There was a single bright star in the sky and I remember seeing it. I yelled out one time “HELP!” And then cried out to Jesus, and when I did I woke up. When I woke up I woke up with a big gasp for air. Even though I was not drowning in the dream. I was terrified also. It kept me awake for a long time and a couple times that I started to dose back to sleep I jolted awake from that memory. Any clue what this could mean?

    I had a dream of a wasteland type of beach with a lot of mud and dead crabs and coral all over the ground. I had fallen into the muddy water and had to climb out up through some very unstable what seemed to be sewer pipes and finally up onto a broken billboard then climb down over a river of sharp objects of metal and freakishly steep muddy mounds that dropped off the side to the ocean all while having to step in the right spots to not hurt my feet over these dead sharp crab shells and coral being barefoot. I eventually made it out and onto more flat land but it had something oddly to do with Michael Jordan the former basketball player but for what reason I have no clue? It was so nerve racking and scary. It wasn’t in the full light of the day but during the dusk hour. Does anyone know what my dream may have meant to mean?

    River of water, dark but on top of water was floating gold rock or something like that. Daughter & I swimming then saw a large green flesh eating dinosaur 🦖??? in the water. Daughter saw it then swam the opposite direction, and so did I. Each swim stroke I made, I moved gracefully as I did I moved faster and faster, my daughter was afraid I was not.

    Lastnight I had a dream that I was by a group of people I knew (a crew if you must), they were underestimating me in a sense. There was this large bucket or drum of water in front of all of us at this time, to prove I could do what they doubted I turned that water into ice with a single breath and had them in a state of flummox (perpetuated greatly). I was curious as to know if it had relevance at all towards me being an upcoming rapper or that secretly I have been tapping into telekenises (hydrokenesis, pyrokenesis mainly) quite strongly in the past 5-6 days aswell. If you have any way of interpreting what this may mean please let me know.
    P.s I am very connected to the spiritual realm aswell .

    Had the same dream for the past 1 week.

    Am swimming . Alone.
    Swimming calmly in a pool with beautiful clear blue water for almost the whole dream.
    Alway woke up from a sudden force of pulling.
    Back to real life, the right side of my lower body will be numb for a few minutes & the bedsheets were wet because I was perspiring during my sleep. (I slept with the aircon at 16 degree & the sheets were dry before this dream)

      Hey Jesper! Swimming in clear water as Doug says is often symbolic and means that your spiritual life is refreshing and life-producing. You can ask God why you are feeling pulled from this and waking up feeling numb. Praying and asking God to show you will help give you answers.

      Also, Doug does have some awesome resources you can look into that help you grow in dream interpretation. Here is a list of those resources, https://dougaddison.com/training/dream-interpretation/.

      God bless you!

    Last night, I was dreaming of a land walking back to our house. While I am walking, I can notice that the sky is getting a little dark and a huge body of water gradually shows in and surround me. I noticed that what I was seeing is an ocean becoming larger and wider until it hits my way making my way back disappears. I tried to swim but I can barely paddle swim and swim to the best I can until there is a man who is riding a motorcycle, I climb aboard and he took us to a bridge in a river. We bumped into the edge before the bridge and throw our selves through a net, climbed the water bridge only to find out that the bridge was submerged in the water but I can still see the bridge and was able to walk on it. I’ve got stumbled and fall of on the other side of the water which is the deepest part of the river. Then when I woke up, it was already 10:36 in the morning and I’m cold. I really need to hit the bathroom and prepare for my work. Oh gosh I will be late at work and I need to hit the road and commute. But anyway, that dream means a lot to me, it was so amazing to feel like you’ve been so overwhelmed to a large body of waters that are ragingly flowing. One thing I’ve noticed there, but I won’t tell everybody what is it, it’s something weird happened. Anyway, thanks a lot for reading this.

    hi last night i dreamt i was home,and there was funeral not sure who’s funeral was it,in the dream the house looked different from our real life one but in the dream it was my home (grandma’s),the house was big like beautiful and it was bright inside the house spaceous,as everyone was preparing to go to grave yard maybe, i saw myself wanting to have a bath so that i could also go,the bath was white in a rectangular shape,as i wanted to switch on the water tap i realised that there was a girl or baby sleeping in what suppose to be a bathroom and baby was covered with a blanket/checked blanket not sure of the color,so i couldnt run water into the bath because someone i know my cousin’s wife(Cathrine) moved the bath from where the tap is,reason was for the baby to sleep without disturbance,i was wondering what kind of bath was that because normaly the bath is undetachable but that one was movable i found myself trying to push the bath close to the water tap at the same time trying not to wake the child up,and not sure but the child seemed like it was my child(Keagile her name,meaning i have build)and in real life my daughter passed on 11 years ago when she was 19 and she was disabled,actually before trying to have bath,i saw my aunt (Magdeline her name)with another woman relative of us(Sellah her name)they were sitting on the floor(that’s how we mourn in our culture)in our culture when there is a funeral there’s normally lots of people going up and down,in and out the house but this one was different,it was only my aunt and this relative of ours in the house,she is actually my aunt’s cousin,so in the dream i was so happy that our house is going to be kept clean because no one was running in and out of it,my main concern in the dream was the house was spaceous and very bright inside(not that i was worried maybe happy) though i could only see 2 rooms were my aunt was(looked like passage-like place with lounge in front) and where the bathroom was,i knew in the dream that it was a biiig house but couldnt see the rest of the rooms,the dream ended up still trying ways to get water in the bath because i didnt want to disturb the sleeping child.maybe this will help, two weeks back i dreamt i was home and group of women were in front of our house/yard sitting all of them in a blue uniform,like burial society club and i saw my other aunt (phillipine) coming to join them,at the same time my cousin Sylvia,was worried going to a lady same street(secretary of the club for burial society)Sylvia was concrned wanted to know how much she owes the club, because normaly when there’s a funeral they go through the books and check who owes and how much she owes before the funeral i saw most of my family( my grandmother’s family n grand children)waking up i called my aunt Magdeline and told her about the dream and she also told me for that whole week she’s been dreaming seeing all her mother’s(my grandmother) children who died already and her mother’s family side who passed on,her last dream was she saw coffin there was funeral at home(my grand mother’s house,all this dreams when i say home this is happening at my grand mother’s house,that’s were i grew up as i dont know my mom,died when i was 3yrs,so that’s my home)to continue my aunt’s dream she said she saw coffin lot of people,my granma’s children and grandchildren and everybody was very happy that day,am sorry that this looks like a book,STAY BLESSED

    This year things went downhill for me, and the past few month I wonder about God. Once a teacher spoke to God in tongue and she saw a vision of me inside a shark trying to get out but don’t know how . Then months past by, and she told me that when she looks at me, she sees the deep ocean. I have art as a subject in school and every term we get a new theme to work with . The moment I heard that our theme is to dream, I emediatly had this vision in my head of a deep ocean with a cage underneath and a bird flying above the water. Somehow all of this is connected, but I don’t completly understand what God is trying to show me.

    I have written a book, which I have in manuscript form. I dreamed several times last night that I was submerging it in a pan of clear water. Interestingly enough, the pages were not damaged and the ink was not smeared. I pulled it out and it was completely clean and dry. I feel strongly that the water has a spiritual or prophetic meaning. Can you help me by interpreting my dream?

    It’s good to find a site that interprets dreams from a Christian perspective. Thank you. In my dream I found myself and my 2 youngest children going very quickly down a water slide. But it was saltwater. I wasn’t really scared but I didn’t really like it either. At the end my feet were burning from the salt and I was happy for it to be over. Salt and saltwater I usually see as very comforting and healing. But I’m not a fan of water slides. In the research I’ve done, I have found both positive and negative interpretations. Any ideas?

    I’m at this place I’ve never been. With nice people I’ve never met. It’s night time and this place is made of big stones. I’m outside and my 2 younger children are with me. There is this big, I mean long deep body of water. It’s night so obviously the water is dark. But we get in to swim, and the water feels like velvet. So comfortable! I can swim really fast through the water, and I feel a fish touch my leg, and I get excited that in this water are fish. Outside this pool which by the way has no end or I can’t see the other side, there is a man smiling. He is tan with nice teeth, and curly hair a little past his ears. I was awakened by someone knocking g at my door. I feel like this dream has definitely something to do with Spirituality because my younger kids were the ones with me and as of right now, they are my only children who have received the Holy Spirit and have a conscious thirst of the knowledge of Christ. My older children aren’t willing yet…

      Hey Alizz! Swimming in water can represent the spiritual aspect of life. Although swimming can be good, notice the context of the water: is it clear or dirty, fast flowing or stagnant, or shallow or deep? From there, you can gain better understanding of what the dream means. Bless you!

    The Lord gives me prophetic dreams frequently. I had one the other night that I wanted to share because I’m not sure what the interpretation is. I was in the passenger seat of an SUV driving down the road with a person who was a co-worker. It wasn’t anyone I currently work with or know – it’s just how it was in the dream and we were driving somewhere for work even though I work in an office all day and never drive anywhere during work hours. Although I live on the East coast, we were driving on the West coast near the shore when suddenly out of nowhere we saw a massive tidal wave coming into shore. Although we couldn’t actually see the shore from where we were driving, we were close – to within about a 1/2 mile and the tsunami was absolutely stunning in how massive it was. We both looked at each other startled and I said “brace yourself, here it comes”. In the dream I was ready for the power of that massive wave to annihilate us but I had hope that we would survive it. Suddenly the water came in and hit us from the side but instead of overwhelming or crushing us, it lifted the SUV we were in and moved us sideways a bit and much to our surprise we ended up back on the road driving through about a foot or two of water. As the dream ended I was struck by the hope I had before the wave hit. It was a real hope and not a false expectation even though it looked like there was no way we would survive it.

      Awesome dream Steve! Sounds to me like a dream of the coming revival that Doug and other prophetic speakers keep talking about.

Though he wrote it in 2016, it goes into what God is doing over the next 7 years. Bless you!

If the water is dirty, then ask God how you can pray for your husband. Dreams like this though might seem bad, are good because they can show us how to pray for those we love.

    Hello,
    2days ago, I had a dream of going in a tour through oceans to explore. I had seen 3-4 types of ocean in a single dream. I convinced my family with so much struggle to let me go out there with friends, packed many food in zip lock bags. Suddenly I saw myself with 7-8 other people in a cruise which only had an open area like a wooden sheet with all closed edges except one small portion. At beginning there were some small but fast waves coming to us as someone had thrown water on us. We were having food time to time. We reached a country where kids were dancing in fear. Others were not interested to go, so me & one of my friend went their, we were dancing & trying their steps.suddenly some angry weird people came there. We decided to go back for safety. I saw my cousin brother ,tried to talk but he denied to recognise & went. Now we were again in our cruise. Although it had closed edges, I was standing in the only open area & fell in the ocean,my friend saved me .Other friends & people had no reaction when I fell ,they were just sitting & watching. We sat different edge & others in different,there was a pole in cruise. Suddenly ocean changed,weather changed. It was all cold,but we were not feeling it. Stormy waves of ice, perfectly cut in thin square shapes came fastly & covered us half . We covered ourselves with sweaters, didn’t get hurt. We ran towards our friend to check,but they were enjoying blue sky sunny weather. But as we reached their part of cruise , a very cold ice water storm, fast very fastly came to all of us,we all just ran to other side or else we would die from cold. Other side was now normal. Now we reached different country & again only me & my friend explored. Others wanted to go back home. As we returned on ocean, we saw, half of the edges were destroyed by storm and a very big ,high & dark wave was coming towards our cruise. It was raining. Suddenly we all reached to other country. It was now not dark. It was just sunny. Sunlight all around . They had 2 day trip. But we had only half day to explore. I woke up hearing it’s time to go back, because I didn’t wanted to go back.
    I usually don’t remember dreams. But this one I remember each & almost every second of my dream. Its long I know, but Can u please help me with this?

    Last night I dreamt that we lined up to jump into deep waters of the the river that was running fast. I was the first on the line. I was instructed to get hold of piece of a long garment which took me deep into the water. First I wondered if I would survive staying in deep waters, then I just decided to jump in holding on to the garmet. I found myself and other people deep down in the water where I was able to breath and talk without water getting into my mouth. It was an excting atmosphere and I had my fon and i began to take photos. Then my colleague took my fon to help me take photos too. Then woke up. Am desperate to know the interpretation am about to do something .

      If water often represents the Spirit or spiritual life, and you are going deep into it, then apply what that would mean. In your dream, as you went deeper, it was fun and exciting and others were with you. Be encouraged that as you go deeper with God, it will be exciting and fun!

    Last night my daughter was very ill and the same night I had a dream that she fell into three different public swimming pools and on all occasions I jumped in to save her but she didn’t seem scared or drowning, everytime she seemed to either swim/float on her own or being taken out by other people who were also swimming in the pools alive and well. I woke up feeling puzzled by this dream, what does it mean?

      Cool dream Kelli. First, I’m sorry your breakup was terrible. Praying now that you heart is healed fast and you are able to move on. Second, babies often represent a new blessing in your life. Water can represent the spirit, spiritual life, Holy Spirit, the spiritual realm, or refreshment. Having a dream with those two combo’s is awesome. Keep track of the other dreams you have and see what blessing from God comes your way :).

    I was driving my car and suddenly my car drove into a flooded area very fast, I couldn’t see anything other than water everywhere . I felt a little threatened as I wasn’t sure how I was going to get out. There were so much water the colour was a little murky. The car then turned itself around and drove me quickly away and out of the water. I didn’t get wet at all.

    I dreamed I was standing in an open space, like a meadow or field looking at or working on something. I was looking down at whatever I was working on. There was a “body” of water inside concrete walls ahead of me. The water was grey and looked “mushy” and rolled as if boiling, but it was not hot. The level of the water was at a safe level below the top of the walls. I could see a man in the far distance near the concrete walled water. Suddenly I felt as if I was about to be enclosed or wrapped by something big. I looked up and saw the concrete enclosed water had moved very close to me and the water was surrounding me. I looked at the man I had seen in the distance and waved for him to move away from the concrete wall. I cannot swim. I looked behind me and saw that I was standing on a hill or incline and the water was just beginning to rise up the incline. It was not very deep yet so I turned and walked down the incline and through the water and away. I did not feel wet. I only felt slightly threatened. Then I awoke. ????

      Doug says in this post, dirty water indicates that some issues might need to be addressed or healed. Sounds like the water in your dream was dirty.The man could either be good or bad, depends. I would ask God what in your spiritual life may need be addressed or healed? Spend some time with Him and see what comes up. Either way, be encouraged because God loves when we want to grow!

    Hello please help, I am a youth leader at church, i had a dream I was with the other sisters from church and we were in a dam fishing and someone said there is a big snake staying in this dam but we were not paying attention to the conversation and there was no fear of the snake. I end up with another sister and there was a guy in the water and he is not born again i end up having sex with him in the presence of this sister and around the dam the grass was so green and the trees.
    Please help im really confused

      Hey Lesego. Snakes often mean lies and deception. Fishing in this context would be the gift to help others or outreach oriented. You had intimacy with someone not saved, showing intimacy with the world rather than God. This could be the enemies plan, rather than reality. Pray and ask God to show you. <3

    hi
    can you help pls.
    for the first time today, I dreamt flying towards a forest with very tall trees. the forest was covered with greyish mist like a fog but you could see through the forest.

    from the opposite direction underneath me (am still flapping my hands), a beautiful unicorn galloped towards me and I looked up to me and smiled. it was the most beautiful unicorn(it hard a protruding horn I have ever seen.
    then I work up.

    many Christian preachers associate flying with witchcraft/the demonic attacks.

    Having read Dougs interpretation, it makes sensefor I have always been attracted to anything prophetic, revelation knowledge gifted people.

    I he also been praying and fasting for the same.

    Please help me understand this fully in particular what does a unicorn represent and where is it in scripture?

    thank you.

    I dreamed that I was standing in my apartment near the kitchen area facing my patio door, which has a long window, from top to bottom and the door next to it as well. The blinds were opened on both of them so that I can see outside. I saw that it was dark and raining, but yet there was a large ray of sun shining bright to the left of the window. The ray of sun shinned on the ground. The feeling I had in the dream was that I knew that I had a meaning, but I couldn’t understand what it meant or symbolize.

      Bridges often mean transition, season change. God always wants to direct us to go the right way that leads to life. He wants you to go the right way and seems to be showing you. Continue to ask Him and thank Him for guiding you. It makes God so happy when we include Him in our choices and transitions.

      We do not do dream interpretation but I can help you with some symbols. If a statue is built for a memory or memorial and it was going down the water first standing tall, then knocked down, it may be God is showing you He is washing away some past memories you may have held onto. Bless you!

    I dreamed twice that I was near an ocean that was very calm and the water low. But as was looking at the water I thought this water is low but it will soon roar and destroy. So I must warn people to leave. Before I start warming people the water went very high like hundreds of feet. We had to run without turning back.
    I was safe. I couldn’t remember what happened to others.

      Thanks for sharing Tanty. Doug’s dream crash course talks about how ocean may mean a big movement or humanity. This dream may show that you are seeing something others don’t see. God could be showing you that you can press in and pray for a situation or group pf people to be safe. I’d ask God what he is referring to and see if there is something on your heart to pray about.

      Cool dream Dolores. We do not interpret dreams but we help by providing symbols and helping you interpret it yourself. Seems like a big move of the Holy Spirit (the water.) You held onto a tree (a leader.) And there was protection to keep people from falling, so God was protecting everyone.

      HI Godfrey,

      Remember that dreams are like parables or metaphors. In the blog, Doug said Rivers can point to moves of God and dirty water indicates that some issues might need to be addressed or healed. So let’s recap your dreams substituting the words above:

      I dreamed I was walking with my wife near a move of God that has some issues that need to be addressed or healed, then my wife fell into that move of God.

      Blessing you to press into God for more understanding.

    I had a dream about flying above big rivers but they were dry, other people where just walking i was the only one flying. what could it mean?

    • Reply

      Let’s break it down… Water can represent aspects of spiritual life. Rivers can point to moves of God. The river was dry so the move of God did not happen at that place. Flying in a dream indicates you have a high degree of creativity, you have the ability to rise above circumstances, and you are possibly maturing spiritually. (Read blog https://dougaddison.com/2014/04/7-common-spiritual-dream-meanings/)

      If we put it all together in a context and read it like a story then God is showing you that there is a region or place where the spiritual life is dry and the move of God is absent. It sounds like God is asking to pray for this place. It doesn’t matter if you know where it is or not. God knows.

      God bless you, Pam

When I came to my turn I was given an extra bucket to pour all over my body, and the pastor told me to listen carefully spiritual and tell them what God said. I listened carefully but I didn’t hear anything. My dream ended there.

    I dreamt I was in a boat full of non believers. I’m part of non believers. and It’s true; All of us were surrounded by water. Waves started to arrive and there were no land. I saw a light so bright and where I was, was no light. There was a man standing on water, you can’t even see his face but I knew it was Jesus. So I jumped off the boat and swam to it and asked him. “Can you help me believe in you?” He never spoke, just took me by the shoulders so I close my eyes and he brought me under water and was very deep. I opened my eyes, I was in a place I’ve never been to; saw a book and it asked. “First, do you believe in me?” And I said “yes” and when I turned the page; A little boy arrived and asked me who I would like to pray for. I’ve said my mom. And it spoke a language no one even spoke. And I asked for another prayer. It accepted it and he spoke to god about my prayer and i still never understood what he said.

      Good question Judy.

      If water represents spiritual life, and clear water was falling from the ceiling around your boss, it sounds like God is on the move and doing something at your work. That was pretty easy right? Interpreting dreams is less complicated than we sometimes think it will be.

    This week I had a dream it was the third part in a series of the same dream, in 2005 I dreamed of a killer whale in a bathtub he barely fit, I knew it was content only because it had no other choice and I said it can’t grow in there it has to be in the ocean to grow… a few weeks later I dreamed I was kissing that same whale right on the face with adoration. this last week (november 2016) I had a repeat of the whale dream and I saw sea creatures lined up in two groups some were whales but they formed 2 lines and they were waiting on something. I appeared in another place around the area, (the back I think) except there was a sea next to me and this killer whale swam out from where it was being kept it was huge, shiny and beautiful, the water deep dark blue. I ran inside and told a woman a whale is loose in the water and she said “He probably let him loose” speaking about the main boss. I then ran back to the whale I knew it was about to head into the ocean because it was free and I knew it was going quickly because it was free and had been through trauma while inside that place (it was something like a sea world). it looked in my eyes with a connection and like it was saying thank you. (dream over) when I first had this dream a month or two later I had brought in one of my sons friends who became part of our family, I never knew if this dream had something to do with him, or with me? can anyone help me with this 3 part dream?

    Hi I had a dream that i was standing next to a big river. It was two rivers becoming one. The water was flowing very strong but steady. Not with noise or anything. I was amazed that the river was flowing. I told other people who were standing there that i cannot believe that the river was flowing since i was walking there the other day and the river had no water. It was dry. There was only sand. There river was very deep. If i was standing on the dry sand i could not reach the top with my hand. But now it was in full flow and i was just so amazed and excited. Hope you can help me understand it.

    The last dream I had I was at the beach. I was walking toward my husband who was at the top of the stairs to get to our room because I was going to shower and get cleaned up. At the last minute I decided to go into the water. Two people I didn’t know spoke to me about something on me (a string of sorts) I looked but grabbed it and proceeded to the ocean. When I got about waist deep I saw a waterspout/funnel. It was still bright outside, not stormy but the waterspout was horizontal not verticle. It was similar to being inside a wave that surfers experience only this one had no opening. I just keep thinking, it’s got to end sometime and “spit” me out somewhere. I was not afraid in the dream. I have been having many dreams in the last six months.

    I just dreamed last night I had to walk through a thick green swamp and an attractive man was helping me walk through it, taking my hand. Some parts were deep, the swamp flowed through streets and there was houses along the sides of the swamp. I’m thinking it could have been from a flood. I was uncertain whether I would step on a loose spot and sink. I also felt guilty to have been helped by this man because I was married 🙁

    I had a dream I was standing in the ocean, and there was a beautiful rock formation coming up out of the water in the shape of a arch and every time the waves came and hit the reef beautiful precious stones would spray up on it and coat the archway. I dove into the water to see where it was coming from and all of these beautiful amethyst and aquamarines were in the water. It was a awesome dream!

    What does a water fall mean…….I had a dream walking through a place that had bamboo trees and the sun was shine bright through the trees as I was walking I came up on a beautiful water fall and a big tall gray rock and as I came around the corner it was a beautiful place to sit but I saw a black leopard or cougar sitting there watching her two club in the water playing and I stop back up against the huge rock and said to myself how can I get a blanket or quilt to throw over the leopard or cougar so I could run the clubs were black until the sun light hit them then it was a silver black then I woke up.

    Last water dream I had, I was taken by surprise when I fell into a pool of water I didn’t know was there as I crossed a room. Soaked, I stepped out and began to wring the water out of my dress The main thing I reflect on is that I didn’t notice the pool of water, didn’t know it was there in my path.

    What if I dreamed of tsunami? I saw children on a festival tried to hold on to one pole to stay alive from tsunami but they got overcome by floods. Then I was at home, the tsunami came, I got sprinkled but not overcame by it because of the walls. And I saw underwear scattered around. That’s really weird dream.

    I had a dream that I was with a group of guys (felt like the deciples), it was more like present day times. Jesus was arrested and Soldiers or Big intimidating guys were surrounding Him. He was leaning on a car and was thirsty. At a distance I watched and felt nervous, then I got a feeling of Power to intimidate the soldiers.. So I brought Jesus a cup of water to drink, and He drank it fast then gave me it back, (cup).
    This dream has been on my mind for weeks, I want to know what He is showing me.

    Thank you for this post. I’ve seen floods. The one thing that I’ve never understood was the snow and ice in my dreams. Doug, your revelation and help mean so much and make such a difference. I enjoy sending your posts to others who receive them with great joy.

    I keep dreaming I’m riding a bike with a basket all over, towns, trails, I come upon obstacles, and then I can somehow change them in my dream and I’m able to pass them. Its been recurring for the past couple months ???

    Twice this year had dream of swimming in pools water was clear ,blue and clean. Large pools also deep. One was a friends pool one was mine. After reading your say on waters. I feel God is moving in his Spirit in me largely. Do you agree?

        I just had the exact same dream last night.

        Olympic sized pool, clear, still waters and I was splashing my foot in it while a friend had her own pool next to me that was a lot smaller in size.

        I looked up at the sun as it was radiating so much that I was squinting as I was looking at all the light and I instinctly knew the Son wanted me to go swimming; to refresh myself but it seemed I was afraid to since I was only putting my feet in at this time and started splashing; almost practicing to swim.

          Hi Daisy,
          Very profound dream I must say. Maybe God is ready to move In Your life mightily through His Spirit if only you can trust Him and heed to His prompting you to allow yourself be led by the Spirit, as opposed to where you are now. You might need to pray and take a close look at your spiritual life.
