More Dreams: Go with the flow

You know how I am with my dreams. They're very symbolic and very intertwined with my subconcious. I've dissected my dreams on the blog before, and now I have another one!

In April my subconcious was pointing out that I was starting to value myself again finally, even the parts that weren't "all there" yet. I was also starting to find myself but was held back by fear. Last night my dreams showed me that I have reached a turning point: it's time to go with the flow. I'm a happy person because I decide to be; I am making efforts everyday to connect and stay connected with people (especially my parents and Shawn); and that it's time to just relax and enjoy being alive with all that I have learned. Plus, it literally symbolizes that this cycle could be the winning cycle of this Summer's Baby Lottery!

My dream:

Shawn, myself and my parents were at a waterpark. We were on a waterslide in little leaf-shaped things, floating down the stream of water. I noticed that there were very small requiem sharks (sandbar sharks?) swimming in the water against the flow of the slide. I stood up, trying to jump in and stop them or to get out when my mom called out ahead of me in the stream that it was "OK. There's nothing to be afraid of." I decided to stay in the raft with/near Shawn and finished riding the waterslide and woke up.

From Dream Moods:

Water Park
To dream that you are in a water park indicates that you are expressing an emotional high point. You are feeling emotionally satisfied and fulfilled.

Waterslide
To dream that you are on or see a waterslide suggests that you are being carried away by your emotions. You are being engulfed by your subconscious. Alternatively, the dream indicates that you are going with the flow of things without any objection or resistance.

 

Floating

To dream that you are floating in water suggests that you have a handle on your emotions.

 

Water
To see water in your dream symbolizes your subconscious and your emotional state of mind. Water is the living essence of the psyche and the flow of life energy. It is also symbolic of spirituality, knowledge, healing and refreshment. To hear running water in your dream denotes meditation and reflection. You are reflecting on your thoughts and emotions.

Shark
To see a shark in your dream indicates feelings of anger, hostility, and fierceness.

Fish
To see fish swimming in your dream signifies insights from your subconscious mind. Thus to catch a fish represents insights which have been brought to the surface. Alternatively, a fish swimming in your dream may symbolize conception. Some women dream of swimming fish when they get pregnant.

Here's to no more overthinking... and a lot more enjoying.
