Failing at a diving competition

I'm female. In my dream I was at a swimming contest at a pool with two other people who seemed to be my friends, we were on a team and I seemed to keep messing up. When I went to dive off the board my knees started to give out and I kinda just fumbled in the water. When I went in the water I felt embarrassed and sank down to the bottom and stayed there until I couldn't hold my breath any longer. I went back up to the top. Then all the sudden the water was on fire. I got out. Others didn't.

Dreaming that you are swimming and diving in the water usually contains a negative message related to taking on a new project or getting into a new relationship. This new endeavor could get you so totally immersed in it that you would forget all your other responsibilities. This is especially concerning because this new preoccupation would not end well for you. If it is a romantic prospect, then there would likely be a bad break up. Alternatively, a swimming contest can be an allusion to emotional instability. Perhaps you are not in the best mindset because of piling stress or a toxic environment, at work or at home.

Swimming in a deep and dark river

Swimming in a deep dark river. Feet got tangled in some kind of weeds and I got myself free from. Swam to the river bank and got out of the water. Was watching the water go by and all of a sudden I saw huge fish swimming to the bank. I said to myself it must be a family of fish. Two large fish and two smaller fish. The people eating next door in a outside restaurant were feeding them and then they swam away. By the way I cannot swim. There was a woman there with a new baby and I asked her how much it weighed and she said three pounds. The baby was very small to be three months old.

This dream vision has two distinct parts to it, which may even contradict each other. Seeing yourself getting out of the water where you seemed to be drowning is symbolic of existing positive developments taking place in your life. It could signify being exposed to some events or situations which may have recently yielded positive and encouraging results for you. The image of a big fish and other fish swimming together with it in the water could mean that you are to experience even more events or situations soon, but the outcomes could be uncertain or not as favorable compared to the ones you had just lived through. Most likely, it is because of different circumstances or participants this time around, as envisioned by the people feeding the fish. The last part of this dream about a woman with a baby could be symbolic of going through a period of great disappointments or challenges, there is a good chance they would be related to unwanted pregnancy or complications during pregnancy for someone you know closely or are very familiar with.

Swimming in an outdoor pool of a building

The same dream I have every few years... I see a white oblong building which is a leisure center, containing an indoor and outdoor pool. When inside the building, I see that the indoor pool is busy, so I go to the outdoor pool (this turns to 3rd person viewing), and see myself floating about on a Lilo. Nothing else happens, but last night there was a man in the pool (a current work colleague of mine) who I was floating away from.

Dreaming of a large building that you recognize as a leisure center suggests you are confident in who you are as a person and understand both your strengths and weaknesses well. This may be the result of years of self-reflection or of a few pivotal events which have shaped you, making you the person you are today. Swimming in an outdoor pool indicates, however, that you do not feel challenged in your current environment. In fact, the lack of difficulty is not only cumbersome, it makes you question your position in life. If you feel this is related to your work situation, you may want to seek more responsibilities. If not, it may be high time to take up a new hobby and push yourself to the limit in something new and exciting.

Swimming to the shore and feeling uneasy

Reoccurring. At beach. The sea is so bad and choppy, dark sky. People are unaware of the danger. The water is tall and sharks are all in the water. I have to swim to shore from the ocean and have to stay close to the surface. I am afraid, but I have to go. I see the beach from the water. The people on a slight hill are on blankets watching the water. They are not leaving this danger. The water is almost to the buildings. I am on the beach too and can see the tall water with sharks all in.

This vision is highly ominous and should be considered a warning about getting involved in things outside of your concern. To be more specific, the stormy ocean which rises high above you and the others represents a scandalous, outrageous situation which may hurt your social interactions and, in turn, your career opportunities in the community at large. Additionally, the sharks in the water suggest that your involvement in this situation is an accident caused by your obliviousness to the facts of the matter. Getting to the beach at the end also points toward feelings of deep regret and remorse, possibly because you cannot undo what has already happened. If none of this has happened yet, it may be wise to keep your head low to avoid making any huge mistakes you cannot fix later.

A woman swimming with snakes

My dream was about seeing a woman swimming with snakes.

Seeing a woman swimming with snakes in a dream represents the possibility of a woman finding out personal information about you. You may know this person, she may even be one of your close acquaintances. The information she may have discovered would be sensitive, the kind you would rather not have been spread around to others.

Swimming with black snakes

My friend and I were swimming with a lot of large black snakes and we had our own pet snakes as well. Nothing bad was happening until the snakes started constricting around my friend and his snake. My friend passed out and I quickly dragged them out first killing the snakes around my friend and pulling them off, then doing the same with his snake. His snake was dead, but I I did not know if my friend was.

Swimming with snakes should be considered a serious warning that someone is plotting against you and your friend. Watching your friend being attacked by snakes later, then, is an obvious sign that he is in danger. Pulling the snakes off and killing them symbolically represents your attempts to save your friend and yourself. It could be very difficult, almost impossible even, to avoid the attacks of those who seek to harm you. However, that does not mean you should not try to persist. Any effort you can exert to protect yourself would be worth your time and energy in the long run.

Being kissed by someone while swimming

I'm with a group of people swimming in a cloudy river and rolling in the mud at the bottom. Everyone is laughing and splashing. Then a guy swoops me up, carries me through the water, and then kisses me while everyone cheers (including my roommate who I don't think likes me). The guy then holds me and says "See, there's love everywhere." And then I woke up.

A dream with this scenario has positive connotations. It marks the entry into an auspicious period in your waking life. The fact that you envisioned yourself happy and frolicking speaks a great deal about your current situation. You are at a point in your life when things seem to be working in your favor. The image of a kiss shared with a man speaks about a positive change in your love life. If you are single, you may find new love. If you are already in a relationship, it could mean strengthening of the mutual affection and love in your existing relationship. Make sure you keep yourself open to new opportunities and embrace love with open arms.

Swimming with poisonous frogs and snakes

My dream was about me swimming in deep water infested with poisonous frogs and snakes.

Swimming in deep water that is populated by poisonous creatures suggests that you may be facing a particularly tricky situation in the waking world. The poisonous frogs in your dream vision represent stressful circumstances which are probably happening at your workplace. Meanwhile, the snakes refer to cunning and manipulative individuals contributing to the stressful environment. Fortunately, you can overcome the obstacles and challenges in your way if you face them with humility and kindness.

Swimming, fetching water and climbing a mountain

Swimming and fetching water and climbing up the mountain in a dream.

Dreams about swimming often relate to emotions and the subconscious. The movement of the water, the body of water you are swimming in or the clarity of the water will add more specific interpretations to this dream symbol. In your case, the inclusion of the mountain as another dream symbol means you are contemplating a major life decision which will lead to a better way of life. The imagery of climbing a mountain represents the process of leaving behind bad habits or embracing a new lifestyle. It will entail difficulty, so focus and perseverance are required if you want to succeed in this venture. Fortunately, fetching water symbolizes triumph over adversity. At the end of this challenge, you will gain a useful life skill which will propel you into more success.

Swimming under moonlight

Being on a beach at night, whether you are swimming underwater or skinny-dipping, can signify that you are lost in your thoughts in the actual world. You could be feeling overwhelmed at work or in your personal life, which makes you want to take a break and breathe. You could also be missing a part of your past that you wish to bring back. The bright, reflected image of yourself on the water mirrors your awareness that things are not going your way, yet you struggle to fix them. However, this agony will see its end as long as you acknowledge that you need other people's help.

Seeing someone swimming in dirty water

Seeing someone, particularly someone you know, swimming in water that is polluted or filled with trash is a bad omen to see in a dream. It alludes to an upcoming situation that, if dealt with the wrong way, could have a negative impact on your relationship with the individual you perceived. This situation would likely be hard to explain or quantify to anyone else, however, it is important for both your spiritual and emotional health that you do the right thing. Even if what you have to do hurts this person a little bit now, it would be nothing compared to what would happen in the future if you do the wrong thing.

Swimming in a dirty river with someone

Swimming in a dirty river with someone else is a negative symbol to see while dreaming. It is a common symbol associated with going through various troubles. In this case, you are likely not alone in your struggles. Someone close to you is probably going through a series of similar issues. Most dream workers associate this trouble with spiritual matters, but physical and emotional issues can also crop up after this symbol is seen.

Swimming with someone

Swimming with someone in a dream symbolizes a deep emotional connection with your partner or with people in your subconscious. Moreover, achieving and maintaining trust in someone or in your relationship with someone in this dream is an omen for essential breakthroughs in your personal life. Try paying more attention to the details of your dream, as they may reveal hidden meanings about your relationships and any associated benefits that come with them.

Swimming in ocean with someone

According to modern dream workers, dreaming of swimming in the ocean or sea with someone signifies a shared journey toward achieving success and overcoming challenges together. On the other hand, the emotions you feel during the dream convey a message about the depth of your connection with this person. It possibly carries a spiritual undertone, symbolizing a profound bond and mutual support as you navigate the waters of life.
