Hi there,
Your welcome... I have a lot of water dreams too, not so much like that usually, but a lot of dreams where i'm just enjoying myself in the ocean.
I have dolphins show up a lot in these dreams (these always have a very warm feeling), and once in a while some sharks, which cause me a little worry or fear, but not that much, and not that often.
Sometimes i'm not in the ocean but just near it.
Water represents both feeling in the emotional sense, and sometimes also seems to be a symbol of spirit, just like the ocean is a good symbol for spirit, its so large and powerful, yet so subtle and flowing...ever changing, yet ever the same.
Kind of represents the feminine aspect of Spirit, whereas fire seems to represent the masculine aspect of Spirit (though like water, fire can represent more specific things like strong anger, or agression).
It's interesting that these two elements in particular are known as the "cleansing" elements, like how in the N.T. John the Baptist cleansed symbolically by water, but later on said that Dr. J. would baptize by holy fire.
In one of Plato's writings, relating about the travels of the researcher, sage, and historian known as Solon, Solon has quite the interesting conversation with one of the Priests of Egypt after he mentions that the Greeks remember the great Flood.
But the Priest interrupts and says that you Greeks and your thought/beliefs are as children, and that there have been many cataclysms at cyclic intervals through various mediums, and the greatest always through fire or water. He said that the priests of Egypt kept a much longer memory and knowledge because the location of Egypt was ideal for its survival during some of these past changes.
Many ancient prophecies, and some modern ones like Cayce, or Phylos the Tibetan, say that this particular Age and Great cycle is going to end and begin anew in Fire (whatever this means).
Peace Blink
P.S., i can't seem to stop talking about the changes lately, forgive me for "preaching" on your thread...
