Water

Water is perhaps one of the most meaningful dream symbols. Water symbolizes emotions, the unconscious and conscious, the womb, connection, spirituality, limitlessness, the spirit, what is known, seen, and what is hidden. Depending on the role of water in the dream it can mean many different things: swimming could mean going with the flow, showers/baths represent cleansing and renewing, different bodies of water represent various aspects of life, and in general, it can present as a desire to be a mother.
