What it Means
Dreaming about water can have different meanings. If you have dreams of an ocean or of a storm, it can be hard to interpret that dream. The dream can be connected to your emotions. If heavy rain is falling, it can mean that you need to calm down or that you are calm.
Water can also mean that things need to be calm or still, but it can also mean that you need to control your emotions. If you dream of a long river, it can mean that you have danger ahead of you or that you have deep emotions that you have refused to face.
Water that is powerful or a waterfall might be a warning that you have hard times coming and you have to be ready for it. If you dream of a shower, it can mean that your emotions will change shortly. A river can mean you are connected with nature or that your moods might change.
Clear water can mean that you are joyful and that you are going to get advice about something you need. Remember, the waves are created by the moon, and this is part of your spiritual being. If you find that your emotions are out of control when you dream about water, this can be a sign you need to reflect.
