Dream about drowning: Overactive subconscious or spirit?

Question

The other night, I had a dream about being underwater. I couldn't see the face clearly, but it wasn't me, who was drowning. I could see flashes of light in the water, and I woke with shortness of breath, and feeling like I was gasping. Right after waking, I hear d a voice, but couldn't make out what I was saying. The next night, I dreamed of a girl being taken/held against will, and again there was water involved. I've had some experiences like this in the past, but have chalked it up to a bad dream until now. Anyone with input would be much appreciated.

Answer 1

drowning is a dream that is very common but not to be taken lightly in your case. its strange that you werent the one downing tho this can mean that this person you saw could be your self image. drowning symbolises an immersion in the Sea of Life, and therefore a loss of ego. most dreams of water symbolize all that is emotional and feminine. it is a mysterious substance, given that it has the ability to flow through , over and round objects. it has the quality of being able to wear away anything which gets in its way. water can also stand for the dreamer's potential and his ability to create a new life in response to his own inner urgings.
drowning highlights our ability to push things into the unconscious only to have them emerge as a force which can overcome us.

Answer 2

I think its actually telling you to dont hold yourself back with whatever comes your way because your suffocating your ability to move up in the world.
If you do that then your restricting yourself from showing the world your capablities and your potential.
I think it has alot to do with whats going on in your life and how your going about things. Do you take yourself seriously if not then I think you should start because you might even surprise yourself at your own hidden talents and who knows where you might end up I mean that in a good way. You might actually find what your looking for if you give yourself a chance.

Sorry if Im like way off but thats what I was getting when I interpreted your dream.

Answer 3

How is your intuition these day.
If not good, find a way to pump it up.
I rarely have to intuit what my dreams mean, feelings and visions in combination. Use to.

Possibilities:
past life
parallel life, your like this there.
alternate life, could have been this.
precognition, warning
clairvoyant, call for help

Most likely not:
metaphor, helping ( don't rule out)
healing
intrusion
status, condition report
just having fun in the dream world, I like those. Too Rare
