The fountain is a phallic symbol.
The fountain, from which jets of water shoot, symbolizes a good sexual form and the desire to have a child from a loved one.
A cascade of fountains symbolizes a large number of sexual partners (perhaps potential ones), and also speaks of a desire for group sex.
A fountain with a weak stream of water symbolizes the fading of potency.
A dry or non-working fountain symbolizes impotence or infertility.
