I dreamt that my house had a big flood from the roof (loft) loads of water came gushing down through the entire house. the walls came away from the inside of the house but was kept together by pieces of wood and string and the rooms kept intact..then my husband took me for a drive while our house dried out saying the walls might shrink back. he parked the car in a carpark and went to pay for a ticket I stayed in the car but as he got his ticket two traffic wardens clamped the car and walked away laughing (they had very large mouths) I had this dream hours ago and can't get it out of my head..I didnt go to bed drunk and I have no worries as such..does anyone know what this dream means? please help as I keep thinking about it.

the way i see it....
you've had emotional problems in the past that may still be there, but your inner strength and the support from your partner has kept you strong and able to deal with them well....the only thing that your subconcious is teling you is that you might sometimes rely on your husband for emotional security a lot, and it may be worth, for your own well being, to learn a bit more independence. Not that you have to, because it seems he keeps you strong, and you are happy with it, its just that you are in an emotionally safe and strong place to allow your inner self to blossom some more.

This is certainly a strong dream and whilst it is easy to consult dream dictionaries etc the real significance is what the dream means to you.I dont know you or know your circumstance so i am using common allogory here. The oonly way the dream will be important is if you reflect on what it means to you.
If i say anything that offends you I apologise and want you to know that I wish you all the best in finding the answers.
That you said My house usually relates to the self , the house being the outer self the rooms being the inner self. water is a cleansing thing , the fact it came gushing means that there has been something significant which has washed away and it has taken a lot to do it. something you have kept inside?,
the fact the rooms are intact and you are still held together even if it is by seemingly frail means could also indicate that this cleansing was hard and has really taken a lot out of you.It could also could mean that inside you are a strong person, this cleansing has made you stronger
It is the interesting that you went in a car that you where not driving, usually the symbology of driving , flying on a plane etc are significant if you can identify the driver , it can represent the road your life is taking and if you are not driving then it could be seen that your are not fully in control of your life, that someone else is directing it.The fact that you clearly identify your husband IS significant here.
He then parked in a carpark and your car was clamped could indicate that he has a strong hold or say in your life and the fact the "car" was clamped could be his way of ensuring that you dont proceed anywhere without him, his paying for a ticket shows responsibility , if you dont pay you get towed away , is he scared of losing you?
could it be he is overprotective and assumes full responsibility for you to the point that you have little control over the direction of your life without him in the driving seat.
The fact that people are laughing as you are clamped could be seen as the situation sees you stifled and your husband jokes about the control or your life together to his friends?ie about your cooking, choice of TV shows etc.Mistakes you have made.He makes it seem like a joke but it hurts you and embarreses you, he doesnt see it though.
I personaly see that something inside of you is awakening and you have got rid of a lot of angst and build up from inside you, almost like you have made a personal growth decision and this has given you a rejuvenated burst of energy and a strength to take back some control of your life.
What ever this was involves your Husband and your perception of his control over you and your life choices,
I think the mouse is about to roar.!
If I am close and you want to discuss this further please email me simon_sainteclaire @yahoo.com
Best wishes.

Sometimes dreams are a warning of health problems. Please don't take my interpretation as something to be afraid of or as a joke. I'm not trying to be funny or sick either.
The walls may represent uterine walls...hence the flooding and stuff. Same with the cops' mouths. The clamping may represent a speculum. You might want to go get a Pap smear or a pregnancy test. Or maybe your period is about to start.

House = safety zone
flood = privacy invasion
water coming down = destruction, interruption
pay for a ticket = mind own business
Traffic wardens = high authority
walked away laughing = insult
You have a dream of insecurity. There are something deep in your subconscious mind that you may feel insecure about. It may be your hubby or it may just be yourself feeling not good about high authority people like police, etc. You feel like losing control around people like them. It could also be things that involved freedom being taken away. Projecting flood in your house means your privacy is being invaded. Perhaps in reality, you have some experience about not being respected in some aspect. Of course, if you have watched some sort of disaster movie lately, this dream is merely a play back of similar plot of movie you watched.

Something you are putting off facing up to (possibly financially) is looming around your mind still. You may feel overwhelmed by it, represented by the water engulfing your home. Your home, held together by wood and string suggests this may be the financial problem or at least where it originates from. Your escape with your husband may suggest you can get over this together as long as you take action soon. The traffic wardens represent "the powers that be" that can potentially take things away from you unless you do something about it.
Let me know if this makes any sense to you.

Flood dream normally means you have a very open heart for charity and have a soft heart. Sad stories make you melt and without thinking much you would give everything or at least something to help. I have an old book ( its actually old dream interpreation book ) that interprets as such. Hope it helps.

It's an anxiety dream. Are you worried about money? Or are you going through a bit of a troubled time? Don't' worry, your dreams are just a manifestation of what your brain's been subconsciously thinking during the day, they are not a premonition!
I had a dream last night that Sportacus, from Lazy Town, was Sanjeev Bhaskar (from the Kumar's!). Read into that what you like!

Dreams don't necessarily mean anything. They're the product of your brain consolidating important memories and throwing the rest away; in some ways, they're like the curious-looking stuff that you find in the rubbish.

You dreamed the new 2008 Labour Manifesto.
200 foot sea level rise, Weekly tornados on the Ilford Marshes and the new de criminalisation of car parking laws.
