Water plays a huge role in human history. Whether it is a deep fresh lake, a river that carries life, or an ocean that swallows people, water is both friend and foe. If the dream contains this significant symbol in any form, it is very important to understand its role.
Water in dreams is a strong symbol, because very often its appearance coincides with the highest point of feelings. If other objects have a relaxing effect, the babbling brook flowing through the meadow enhances this effect. If any symbols evoke feelings of fear or worry, the raging ocean intensifies it.
Water has a symbolic, primary meaning, according to which it either ensures the existence of life, or keeps a secret, hides danger. This is a reflection of the human experience of communicating with water. At the dawn of humanity, hunter-gatherers quickly realized that water was central to life. (They die of thirst much faster than of hunger.)
It was even more important to know where the water was because it made it clear where the FOOD was. However, with the spread of trade, water became an inevitable evil that harbored unknown dangers. JOURNEY by water was dangerous and mysterious, as sea creatures, storms, and rough seas claimed the lives of many travelers; polluted water affected livestock and spread disease. Emphasizing a positive view of water, it should be noted that it is often a symbol of new life, restoration of strength and energy.
Water in controlled quantities or in a controlled environment almost always evokes this feeling in the sleeper. Managed water is the key to solving the problems.
Quiet, deep water, which seems refreshing, can give rise to feelings of anxiety. The reason for this is the danger that potentially lurks in the dark and the unexplored nature of what lies beneath. An exception to the general statements listed above are water faucets. In a dream, it is important to determine whether the faucet is being controlled by the dreamer or another person and for what purpose it is being done.
