Can you translate dreams? serious answers only?

Question

i have a re occouring dream (for the past 7 or 8 years). the dream isnt necessarily the same but it always involves water. most times its waves and i'm drowning. sometimes i crash into it on a bike or a car. a couple times it was a calm beach and i was drowning but rescued. can this mean something? (( when i was about 12 i nearly drowned at a beach in Victoria but never felt traumatized by it and have no fear of water or small waves.)

Answer 1

business loses  are going to start looking up through intervention of a friend.....waves signifies difficulties

Answer 2

I used to be pretty good at this so here goes:

The water represents something left unfinished or unresolved. It pops up in random places in your dreams because it is popping up in your waking life somehow.  I don't believe almost drowning has anything to do with it.  

It just represents some question you have failed to answer or a path you didn't choose...

keep delving.  You'll find it.

Answer 3

it might be that your conscience is trying to tell u something about the place where it happened maybe u should go bak to victoria and swim in the water maybe to sooth it just a suggestion

Answer 4

When you were young ; you went through h**l  ; with your parents . Your emotions had been destroyed ; by  many kind of abuse ; and I would not be surprise if you had been rape . So you have lots of emotional scares who never heal ;sometimes you are drowning ; but you are strong ; because you are rescued ; but in reality its yourself who is fighting to get rid of all this c**p  you went through

Answer 5

Only you can translate your dreams because they are your own memories,they mean nothing,they are thoughts in your head getting sorted out while you sleep,even while resting your brain still works overtime,sometimes thoughts get jumbled up and come out as nightmares,maybe you are still traumatized subconsciously by the incident when you were twelve

Answer 6

Your dream suggests that you may have a real sleep disorder which draws on subconsciously held information from your earlier experience of near-drowning.

It does not appear directly related to any terror resulting from your earlier incident.  Something more recent or present seems to drive it - perhaps some occasional difficulty with breathing in your sleep.  Apnea is the term if that is the case - and it can be mild or serious.  'Snoring' often goes with it, but not always.  What happens is that your sleeping body experiences a temporary loss of full breathing and the resulting signal to the brain is one of alarm - and the scenario cooked up in seconds as a dream illustrates the 'peril' of the thing.

Examine things like sleeping environment - temperature, ventilation, sleeping posture and bed coverings - any or all can have some effect on your ability to get fresh air and healthy breathing in sleep.  Consider too whether any apnea type symptoms are occurring - that could require a sleep study, but if present would be well worth the effort.  If an observer can tell you if you do snore, apnea is a likely thing (snoring actually can be considered a form of apnea).

This type of dream is fairly common among those who do suffer minor to major breathing issues in their sleep.  The 'scenary' can vary widely - but the 'drowing' theme is common: some dream of being sealed below the waterline of a ship with the threat of rising water coming in, others may dream of being pulled into the outlet of a swimming pool, etc.  

In your case the images likely stem from your own experiences and orientation toward exposure to the water or similar hazards.  It is good that you never felt traumatized by your near drowing, but that imprint does seem to play a partial role in this in that the beach is often involved.

You would have to consider how these points may explain the meaning of the dream, but what is suggested is that you are getting signals that your breathing is not as robust as it should be during your sleep.  Consider that point carefully - if you find that to be a possibility, consider the sleep study - apnea is easily remedied in most cases and you'll sleep better.

All the best to you.
