Diving
Diving into water often touches a plunge into the depths of something — embarrassment resolved if the water runs clear, anxiety stirred if it's muddy. The dream may ask what you're throwing yourself fully into, whether you can see clearly beneath the surface, and what waits at the bottom of the matter you're committing to enter headlong.
A live archive of what the world is dreaming tonight: which symbols are rising, the collective mood, and where the dreams are coming from. Free, always.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for diving, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of diving in clear water, denotes a favorable termination of some embarrassment. If the water is muddy, you will suffer anxiety at the turn your affairs seem to be taking.
To see others diving, indicates pleasant companions. For lovers to dream of diving, denotes the consummation of happy dreams and passionate love.
