riding a wave

I was sitting in a circle or semi-circle with a group of women I didn’t know on the beach. It was a gorgeous, sunny, breezy day and the ocean behind us was a clear, sparkling turquoise. It seemed quite expansive. We were happy and laughing and I think we were eating lunch. Soon a huge […]

breathing underwater

Once I had a dream that I could breathe under water. I was at a pond, and stuck my head under the water, and was breathing it in just like it was air. I was just wondering what this could mean? –Jessica, Age 15, Sylmar, CA, US For the interpretation of the dream, click here […]

walking underwater

I rarely, and I mean rarely, remember my dreams, but this morning was different. When I first became aware in my dream, I was completely under water. In fact, the entire world was under water. Breathing was normal as if there was nothing unusual about being able to breath completely submerged. I remember being with […]

wresting a water snake

Background information: My brother committed suicide by drowning in October of 2000. In my dream, I was in the water and successfully fought off a huge water snake.

natural disaster

My background is that I am single, with no kids. I am an identical twin, and possess a master’s degree in education. I founded and run a non-profit corporation for folks with serious disabilities. I manage about 80 employees. It’s a high-stress job. I have two recurring themes in my dreams. In one, I am […]

flooded with emotion

Hi Kathleen— Your dream is a fairly transparent representation of the depth of your feelings for the Kennedy brothers. The only part that is unusual – and dreamlike – is that you were able to speak with Bobby as if he were still alive, and that the hallway was flooded with water about three inches […]

running a race

I am a 16-year-old high school sophomore. I think I am a very creative person, and I find the opinion of my teacher, Mr. Gonet, to be very important to me. I am thinking a lot about my future, which I hope will include my hobby of video production. I recently got some great equipment […]

no meaning

I have dreams that are usually seemingly pointless.. they go noplace, but get somewhere… In one dream, I was in my elementary school cafeteria (I’m in high-school now, and in the dream, I’m not any different than usual, if it helps…) and everything was the same, except for the color schemes. I was standing in […]

no meaning

Dear Any Meaning – I think your dream is a good illustration of what many dreams are…a type of stream of consciousness representation of your thoughts that – because you are dreaming – become experienced as “real.” For example, you may have been reminded of your junior high school the previous day, and then at […]

face of God

A few nights ago, I had a terrifying dream, and I wonder what it means. I was in an elevator with two boys and a girl who are in the same Boarding House as me. (The boys are people I barely know and are of no significance to me in real life.) One of the […]

face of God

Hi Heather – I think you are correct in identifying the source for this extraordinary dream – your upcoming break (completion?) from school. Often when we live in a structured environment – school in your case, work in another person’s – even a simple block of free time or vacation can have a temporarily bewildering […]
