Sinking and emerging - water lilies/lotus leafs

[moonsinger]

Ok, this is my first post here, so bare with me Last night I had the following dream: My girlfriend and I are swimming quite close to shore. The place looks kind of like where I come from. The shore is a small beach surrounded by a dark forest and dark grey rocks (again, this looks a lot like home, so I wouldn't put too much emphasis on that). I think the water must have been fresh water. Several of my friends are standing on the beach. The weather is overcast and quite gloomy. In water, my girlfriend and I are embracing each other, face to face. We kiss, and as we kiss, we start sinking. I blow air into her mouth and face, almost like giving her a rasberry (if that's the right expression (not native english speaker)?). As we reach the bottom she makes me aware that we are really far down, probably twenty meters. Then we resurface. Now we are quite a lot further from the shore. The same thing repeats, but this time we go even deeper, and as she once again makes me aware of how deep we are, I get scared and suck air back into my lungs from her mouth. We emerge again but this time we are very far from shore. The water, which was clear, is now quite murky. As we swim back towards the shore we have to swim through lots of water lily leaves (not petals). They might be loose, but I'm not positive. I feel insecure, and grab her hand. I think that made me feel safer. That's it. I have some opinions of my own, but I'd rather keep them to myself until I've heard some of your thoughts on this. Thank you for reading this

Swimming is symbolic of emotions and spiritual condition. Your emotional condition is dark (dark water/gloomy skies) revealing depression. Your friends remain apart (on the shore) You have moved away from the public eye/society in real life. You are both going back and forth sucking the life breath out of each other , and supplying it for each other too. This shows there is give and take as a couple. Going through is hard on you both and you are hanging onto each other in a survival mode. She is the one who informs you when you two have gone down too far, and she did that twice. You are trying to navigate back to a sense of normal (back to shore) But, you run into obstacles…lily pads and there are NO flowers. This is a sign that reveals there is no fruit/ good/benefit coming from having to traverse these obstacles/obstructions that have come into your life path. You have to pass through this part and you are the one that feels insecure, so you grab her hand for support….in other words you rely on her advice and her support. It appears your relationship is struggling and may be in need of your giving more then you are taking? If there is an activity that the two of you are participating in that is making you as a couple feel isolated and submerged, it would be good to indentify what it is. Since this all takes place in water it is likely a spiritual or emotional issue.
