dream interpretation of dirty water

Water / June 29, 2017

Holy Water
To drink or splash holy water in your dream represents a need for spiritual cleansing and rejuvenation. You are seeking calmness and tranquility.

Hose
To see a hose in your dream is symbolic of how you are directing and expressing your emotions. A hose represents renewal, rejuvenation and cleansing. You need to heal those emotional wounds so that you can continue to grow as a person. Alternatively, a hose may be a metaphor for sex and sexual gratification. Or it may be a pun that you are "getting hosed" or blindsided in some situation.

Mineral Water
To dream that you are drinking mineral water means that you will have a solid foundation needed to enjoy your taste for the finer things in life.

Saltwater
To see or taste saltwater in your dream symbolizes tears and heartache. It may also indicate some emotional outburst or suffering.

Underwater
To dream that you are underwater suggests that you are being overcome with emotions and are in over your head regarding some situation. You need to gain greater control of your life.

To dream that you are breathing underwater represents a retreat back into the womb. You want to return to a state where you were dependent and free from responsibilities. Perhaps you are feeling helpless, unable to fulfill your own needs and to care for yourself. Alternatively, breathing underwater is analogous to being submerged in your own emotions. Dreaming that you are flying underwater represents control over your emotions. You are comfortable with confronting your feelings directly.

To see houses under water implies that you are very comfortable with your own emotions. Alternatively, the dream may be a reflection of your housing situation. Perhaps you are "underwater" in your mortgage.

To see objects underwater in your dream symbolizes your suppressed feelings as represented by the objects. The objects may trigger some emotional memory which you still need to confront and work through. For example, children's toys or bicycles refer to an emotion that you suppressed in childhood. To see a car underwater in your dream points to feelings of regret or sadness over an abandoned goal.
