Dream of boat, island, sinking, water, man, person, woke up

I was on what seemed to be an Island with a man I didn't know. I remember it was like I knew this person but didn't know how. Suddenly the ground every where started getting huge sink holes and disappearing into the water. The man said we have to find a boat quickly before everything sinks. Just before I woke we had found a small wooden boat and as we grabbed it the ground started sinking and I woke up.

Meaning of water in a dream

Cleansing. Life. Emotions. Ask yourself about your current feelings. Water symbolizes your inner being and harmony. It can also represent the unconscious or non-conscious (eg, the spiritual). Rough water will represent the fact that you are in turmoil while serene, calm water will represent that you are at peace. Muddy or dirty water will mean that you need to clarify your thoughts, purify your expressions, look for the true meaning and path you are pursuing. Running water may simply mean that you need to urinate, but it can also represent the process of evaluating your own thoughts, motives and outlook on life. Water also represents your emotional state. The condition, speed, color, clarity and force of the water reflects your emotional health regarding whatever you are dreaming about. Raining in a dream often mimics crying in real life, either tears of joy or of sorrow. Snow can be demonstrative of cold feelings/cold attitude/iciness towards something or someone, or even towards yourself. Cloudy or murky water can show emotional confusion.

To dream of clear water, foretells that you will joyfully realize prosperity and pleasure. If the water is muddy, you will be in danger and gloom will occupy Pleasure's seat. If you see it rise up in your house, denotes that you will struggle to resist evil, but unless you see it subside, you will succumb to dangerous influences. If you find yourself baling it out, but with feet growing wet, foreshadows trouble, sickness, and misery will work you a hard task, but you will forestall them by your watchfulness. The same may be applied to muddy water rising in vessels. To fall into muddy water, is a sign that you will make many bitter mistakes, and will suffer poignant grief therefrom. To drink muddy water, portends sickness, but drinking it clear and refreshing brings favorable consummation of fair hopes. To sport with water, denotes a sudden awakening to love and passion. To have it sprayed on your head, denotes that your passionate awakening to love will meet reciprocal consummation. The following dream and its allegorical occurrence in actual life is related by a young woman student of dreams: "Without knowing how, I was (in my dream) on a boat, I waded through clear blue water to a wharfboat, which I found to be snow white, but rough and splintry. The next evening I had a delightful male caller, but he remained beyond the time prescribed by mothers and I was severely censured for it.'' The blue water and fairy white boat were the disappointing prospects in the symbol.

Meaning of woke up in a dream

When you wake up you actually see the life as they are, you are no longer closed in your concept. To wake up from the dream, you are really accepting and knowing who you are. We are all familiar with the situation called "dream". We sleep, we are in a kind of unconsciousness, disconnected from the reality around us. However, while we are "in" within the dream, we feel it as a real reality, and experience a great many emotions, thoughts and situations. When morning comes and we wake up we "sober up" and realize that everything that happened in the dream was not real, while the reality in our waking state is real. Similarly, a person who attains spiritual attainment feels that the world and physical reality were not real. The Kabbalists express this feeling in the words "we were like dreamers." In so doing they want to illustrate to us that the real reality into which man "awakens" after acquiring the spiritual senses, is the only one that exists while the physical reality in which we seem to live today, is but a temporary dream from which we are all to awaken.
