Why am I constantly dreaming of water?

Every night I either dream of ships, water coming into my room, the ocean, POOLS fish, dolphins, islands and water organisms but not really drowning more like swimming or interacting with these animals or people in the water and this is like EVERYDAY, IM GETTING TIRED OF NO EXPLANATIONS.

please tell me why are these water dreams so repetitive and what do the symbols mean?

This verse 'springs' to mind!

John 4

New King James Version (NKJV)

A Samaritan Woman Meets Her Messiah

Therefore, when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John 2 (though Jesus Himself did not baptize, but His disciples), 3 He left Judea and departed again to Galilee. 4 But He needed to go through Samaria.

5 So He came to a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. 6 Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied from His journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

7 A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.” 8 For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.

9 Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, “How is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.

10 Jesus answered and said to her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give Me a drink,’ you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.”

11 The woman said to Him, “Sir, You have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Where then do You get that living water? 12 Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?”

13 Jesus answered and said to her, “Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, 14 but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”

15 The woman said to Him, “Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.”

16 Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”

17 The woman answered and said, “I have no husband.”

Jesus said to her, “You have well said, ‘I have no husband,’ 18 for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; in that you spoke truly.”

19 The woman said to Him, “Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where one ought to worship.”

21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. 24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

25 The woman said to Him, “I know that Messiah is coming” (who is called Christ). “When He comes, He will tell us all things.”

26 Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am He.”

I had have SEVERAL, in fact the majority of my dreams have involved the ocean, a pool, waterfall, lakes, crocodiles etc. Depending on the state of the water (mellow, calm, rough, strong) is a reflection of how you are feeling spiritually. I believe its symbolic of the Holy Spirit and diving into deeper depths of your relationship with God

Depending on the state of the water (mellow, calm, rough, strong) is a reflection of how you are feeling spiritually. You can use the as a barometer to help you in your daily walk. For example if the water was rough, you could exercise a little more caution than normal & be watchful of any emotional reaction to situations which might complicate things. When the water is still or flowing nicely you can take these opportunities to draw closer to the Lord. I wouldn't make it a law or something to be obsessed with, just something you add to the normal spiritual disciplines- bible reading, prayer, listening to preaching, serving etc.

In a river, water takes the lowest (humulity) path. This is about being in awe of the Lord, being real & honouring others.

Water won't force it's way thru but flows around. So for example if a manager at work was giving instructions & you felt there was a better way to do it, you could negotiate rather than resist or faling that flow with her/him & make the best of their approach.

Well said Firewater.

Holythemholyme, water does represent spiritual aspects and/or emotional aspects of the dreamer...both are closely related to each other. Have you posted dreams that were not replied to? May we help you with a specific dream?

An update: I still dream about water EVERYDAY and it's getting really freaky. I find the water in places where it's not supposed to be such as a river in the middle of a garden, or suddenly coming into my room, or me swimming in the water and finding water creatures, but lately I am seeing a lot of birds too and other animals but water still remains the main element. What is god trying to say with water ? can you give me a link?

Hi HolyThemHolyMe

When we have similar or repetitive dreams it is because God is trying to tell you something & you haven't "gotten" it yet. So with that said, it would be very helpful if each time you have a dream to write the entire dream out in the morning when you remember it before losing any details & post it here so we can help you understand each specific dream. Once the Lord sees that you have received the proper interpretation to your dreams about water, you won't have them any more. This happened to me once - for years I kept dreaming that I was putting on HUGE floppy contact lenses..finally I mentioned it to someone who could interpret dreams & she told me that it means God was giving me the gift of prophecy (seeing into the future)..and after I got the interpretation i never had those dreams again.

You've not given any details, you've just given a few symbols which could mean many things depending on what happens in the dreams. Please post what you recall of each dream - it's important if you want an accurate interpretation.

One thing I can tell you is good, if you had a dream about water flooding your bedroom then that means the Lord is wanting to flood your relationship with His Holy Spirit.. ask Him to fill you with His Holy Spirit in your prayer times, you won't regret it.

BIRDS usually represent bad spirits..if the birds are black, or scary, or flying at you.. I need much more information to help you however

Please contact the authorities regarding the threats you are speaking of and pray to Jesus for protection - Ask Him to draw a bloodline around your home/apartment so that nothing of the enemy can enter.

If you want help with your interpretations, feel free to write them out, otherwise we cannot help you

God bless

HolythemHolyMe... When a conscience is troubled it communicates to you in the form of dreams and visions. Your conscience senses troubles and heartaches down the road for you. If you change the paths your life is going to one that will please your conscience, then these type dreams will pass.

From DreamMoods.com... 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.

As far as conscience... There is no greater conscience soother than a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. When the Spirit of God came into my heart the nightmares I use have as a teenager immediately ceased.

Warning: Not only is DreamMoods a secular dream-interpretation site - it is also a demonic playground. I don't recommend that anyone get answers there. I am not trying to debate here but to warn.

If I thought anything about this site was demonic I would have never reccomended it. Please read this little ditty from dreammoods.com...

When i first started learning about dream symbols I checked out that site... the dream symbols are almost all wrong, thus the dreams people interpret using the symbol explainations listed on the site will be wrong.
The fact they have a crystal ball presented on their main page is also a huge red flag.
Even the link you provided for the symbol of the bible in a dream is wrong, rockytopva... sorry...

I understand that you are not aware of the fact that DM is a demonic playground; that is why I'm informing you and others. I actually joined that site temporarily because a friend of mine asked me too, to talk to a couple of specific people who were struggling and possibly help lead them to Jesus. While I was there, I definitely dealt with a lot of resistance both personal and spiritual. The link you provided was just the symbol listing for "Bible", not a site statement about the Bible.

Hi again HolyThemHolyMe,
You seem to be frustrated with the dreams that are obviously attacks from the enemy.. But what I'm gathering from the things you write is that you don't seem to want to do anything about it to stop them... (this is the impression you are giving with your 1 line retorts)..So I'm not sure if I'm wasting my time in writing, but I will try one more time to see if you would like help...
The only One who can protect you from the enemy is Jesus Christ, the son of God who died & rose from the dead to save your soul & give you life abundantly. God has a plan for your life, and so does the enemy (satan). So with that said, you of your own free-will get to choose which of the two plans you would like. But you must choose one. Not choosing is a choice for the enemy.
The Lord can & will set you free of the misery you have endured if You turn to Him & forsake all occultic things. He can also protect you from the enemy who enjoys tormenting you so much.
God bless & I pray the Lord reaches you before the enemy takes over

Holythemholyme,

Why don't you just post the most current dream in detail, so we can really try to help. One liners are not enough for us to work with, to help you find the answers that you seem to very much want. The symbolism in your dreams are yours. They come from your mind and your culture/society that you live withinn. So we need more participation and dialogue from you, if you want effective help. There is no symbolism book that will be 100% effective, but the bible is the provider of the basic ones, after that your surroundings, culture, and past experiences expand the possibilities of each symbol from there on. No interpreter is 100% effective either. We can only inspire your own thoughts, and discoveries to see your own specific meaning to your dreams. So the amount you participate in here, will be the amount your reap here.

(FYI Dreamoods is owned by an athiest, and is NOT a Christian site in any way. However, there are many Christians there trying to help the hundreds of young kids being lied to, and influenced by those who are lovers of self, hateful rebels, and then there is the cultish advise. The enemy thrives there. If you anybody is a mature Christian, and can stand the heat, there are so many young people being misled and need our help there....but it is a war zone, and there is little kindness for Christians.)
