THE DREAM The following are short summaries of dream which all contain 'deep water'. I have tried best to isolate the symbolic meaning of 'deep water' in each dream.

A dream where I was in a house underwater linked to the dreamer thinking about her family. She was very ambitious and felt that they held her back. They stopped her reaching her potential.

A dream swimming underwater took place just after the dreamer had seen her ex by chance. Later she thought deeply about their relationship. She ended up sending him an email about how she felt about him. The deep water was symbolic of her deep thinking.

A dream where the dreamer caught a snake underwater was linked to the dreamer feeling guilty. He never confessed or apologized for what he did. The deep water was symbolic of these deep and difficult feelings.

A dream where the dreamer came swimming up from the bottom of the sea linked to the dreamer seeing his best friend from school for the first time in years. The deep water was symbolic of him thinking deeply about his friend and the past.

A dream where her daughter is fine swimming underwater took place as her daughter had nearly been killed in a car accident. Swimming underwater was symbolic of her thinking deeply about this difficult and testing situation.

A dream where the dreamer had to hide underwater from guards and people who might find her linked to her being sexually frustrated and miserable. Underwater was symbolic of these difficult emotions.

A dream where the dreamer is fully clothed and swimming underwater linked to her thinking about work. She realised that she needed to take a more professional attitude towards work.

A dream underwater was thought to be a premonition of the day to come. Her Nan was caught in a very bad storm. The deep water was symbolic of the terrible storm.

A dream where the dreamer can breathe underwater linked to work stress. She still could not get of the tension and anxiety - and was becoming worn out. Breathing underwater was symbolic of those difficult circumstances.

A dream about beetroot�s floating underwater was linked to the dreamer becoming interested in art. Beetroot is a very deep color and represented the strong pigments in art. The mixture of beetroot and water probably symbolised some artistic effect.
