No matter whether your car dies out while driving over a flooded road, or you wind up to your waist in floodwater in the basement, chances are your dreams of flooding will be disturbing. While these dreams often reveal that you are overwhelmed in some area of your life, you can use other aspects of the dream to understand just how bad the situation is. For example, if the flooding in the dream is not severe, then you may not be as overwhelmed as you think you are about any given situation.
General Dream Meaning: Flood, Deluge
In general, flooding represents suppressed emotions or actions. In some cases, the repression may have to do with sexual expression, or other feelings surrounding your love life. Dreams of flooding may also suggest that you are the one repressing others in such a way that they want to revolt. If you happen to be unhappy about many areas of your life, a dream of flooding may also indicate that you want to make a new beginning. Depending on the severity of the flood, you can use this factor to interpret the level of disturbance. In addition, if the flooding happens to be mild, or gentle, then you can look forward to the issues being resolved without much difficulty.
How Dream Symbol Flood may Fit in your Life
You can use dreams of floods or flooding to examine your feelings on a wide range of issues. If you are worried about work duties, or responsibilities at home, these dreams may offer you a chance to vent your frustrations. That said, you should not have to rely on your sleep time to do this job for you. At the very least, if you dream of floods as a matter of routine, it may be time to look for ways to change the situations that are bothering you most. In most cases, if your dreams shift to indicate getting through the flood, or the flood being less severe, then you can consider you are on the right track.
A Sample Dream, Flood Dream Interpretation
Consider a dream where you are washing laundry, and enter the basement to put them in the dryer. As you open the door, a stream of soapy water forms a puddle around your feet. Dismayed, you wade into the room and then begin mopping up the water. While you are mopping, you think about the fact that your son causes more laundry to pile up than any other member of the family; and that the entire load was for his clothing. Upon recording this dream, you become irritated over the fact that your son should have a better job so that he is not so dependent on you.
In this particular dream, you would start of by recognizing the fact that the flood represents a situation that you feel overwhelmed by. Since the flood is not very large, and you are able to clean it up fairly easily, you can consider that the disturbance is fairly minor when compared to other matters. The key to determining where the situation is in your life is revealed by what you are thinking about while you are cleaning up the floor. In this instance, you are thinking about your son, who is an adult, but still relies on your for assistance. Clearly, this dream indicates that you are tired of "cleaning up the mess" that your son always seems to leave behind. Rather than go on in this situation, you might want to see if giving your son money for the laundromat will ease your frustrations. This is just one of many things you may want to try doing in order to see if you can avoid further dreams of flooding in relation to your son.
I just had a dream last night that there was a knock on my door. I knew who it was from looking out the window and seeing the vehicle in the driveway. Id like to mention "my house" was actually my now deceased grandmothers house that i grew up in, but i was not a child in the dream, i was the adult i am now. Anyway, i wanted to avoid this person. I can't remember why And i don't even actually know this person in actual life. I saw them trying to peek in through the blinds on the door and i tried running to hide but before i could make it anywhere they just walked in. So i start having what i remember as meaningless conversation with this person because i had no choice when all the sudden i hear a loud BOOM. We continue to talk for a moment after that until i look out the window and everything is flooded and destroyed outside. I remember trying to gather a few things that were important to me then my brother appearing from somewhere in the house and yelling out the door to somebody about "don't just leave us here!". Me and my brother no longer speak because of something mean he did to me. But in the dream we seemed at least civil. That was when i woke up. Anybody with any insight as to what this could mean?

I've noticed that I've had dreams of me in a car that's driving over an underwater road to some destination (two were to an antique shop and the recent one was to a river/beach). The first two an older woman was driving and the "road" was actually just the land surrounding the shop and the recent one was with my dad driving and my mom and three other random people in the car. I guess it does make sense since I've been very, very stressed with my life right now.

I had a dream that i just woke up at the bottom of a huge hill that was being flooded by a body of water . I did not see my truck sink but i could feel that it had in this body of water there was other cars tied together like maybe this was a flooded junk yard. Mind you I was being sunk under water but a cold rain drop hit my hand an woke me up and I was able to climb back up the hill. I looked back down after i climb up an the hill was as big as a mountain and i was so confused on how I even got to the bottom an how i was able to get back to the top so quick. I felt a sadness because I knew my truck was gone and i almost killed myself but i didnt know how or why but I was grateful for that cold rain drop that woke me up before I sank....Anyone have suggestions

I keep having reoccuring dreams about traveling in my car and coming to various size bridges and water crossings where the water is running over the bridge/ road making it uncrossable. Sometimes im contenplating trying to drive through it sometimes its just way too unpassable and i have to hit my brakes hard and turn around to try to find another path. This dream like I said reoccurs alot. Im open for suggestions on the meaning. PS. Many times I wake up from the dream with a paniced feeling.

I also had a dream like this. I was traveling with my youngest daughter (who lives in Kansas with my ex mother in law, while I reside in Texas). I dreamt that we were driving and had come to a very dangerous set if bridges, almost replicating something like a rollercoaster, but for cars.... over a very large body of water. There were several little land paths throughout the bridge. Water rushing over the land and bridges in some places, and no room for error on the side of the road. Finally we come to what seems to be a parking garage and the weather turns for the worst. A tornado comes and we flee our vehicle. I take my purse and strap it around my daughter and myself and try to anchor us down. I manage to keep a hold of her and keep us anchored, but it was almost like a scene from twister.... like we saw the center of the tornado where the eye was..... then the storm passed. The skies turned blue. We hugged. Then I woke up.... what could this mean?

Maybe there is something In your life you are afraid of confronting or addressing because you feel that something bad may come of it. This thing could be important and you don't want to let go of it it could be a number of things but this is what came to me.

Lastnight I had a dream that I was riding in the vehicle with my Dad. I knew we were going to a familiar place. Of course I woke up before we ever actually made it though. The whole way we kept coming to flooded bridges and everytime we crossed the water was so deep it would come up to our chest inside the truck. A couple times the flood was so bad and rapid that we would loose the road and my Dad was driving crazy to get us back on. I mean the way it happened if it were to happen in real life we would be floating down the river. It was wierd. I could literally see us drive off the road or bridge, but some how miraculously my Dad would get us back on. Driving in air and everything. We always made to the other side and we would stop and let the water out of the truck. I remember there being something that I brought with me that I kept trying to keep from getting ruined. I swear it was a cup. I dont know why, but it felt like it had some special significance to it. Im not sure if that meant anything or does the fact that my Dad passed away 4 years ago.

I've been dreaming about water a lot lately. One dream in particular involved me driving in a vehicle when the road in front of me suddenly flooded with sea water...similar to the tide coming in. I stopped the vehicle and stood on top of it to stay out of the water. All of a sudden these massive tide pools formed around me in the road and I could see dolphins swimming in them. Then the dolphins began jumping out of the water to touch my face. I leaned over to let them and just started laughing so loudly. I was incredibly happy and not at all afraid of drowning or being taken out to sea. There were people around, but I didn't know them and I could sense that my husband was in the vehicle with me and nearby as the dolphins started playing, but we didn't interact.

Last night I dreamt that I was driving down the road and came to a section of road that had been washed out by a flood. Several other cars were driving through safely so I decided to go as well. I went and as the water got deeper I could feel my car lifting off the ground. The water was not cold. It started entering my car from the bottom up. I tried to call my husband but the circuits in my car were temporarily shorted. The radio was still playing though. The water kept creeping up around me until it was around my neck. I could barely see over the dash. I kept steering and the engine never died. I was alone. No passengers. I just floated to the other side in my Jetta like my car was a boat. When I got there I was completely dry. So was the inside of my car. I was able to push the button on my steering wheel to call my husband. Everything worked fine. I looked in the rear view mirror and saw other cars crossing the flood water.

My dreams are always of a large home I'm living in. The above floors are always nice no problems and I believe I'm selling the home or trying to leave the home. But the basement is always dark flooded and wrecked. Almost like a underground large cavern led to from the home. It's stagnant clustered with dangerous fallen boards and so deep it's bottomless. But I seem to overlook it and put it off like it's not a problem, life goes on. The rest of the dream goes in and out of life situations. Kids family, friends ect. But I always dream of the flooded basements in most every dream.

I had a dream today and I dreamed that I just pop up in the middle of the day...kinda windy not too hot...then within a matter of what seemed like seconds...it just started raining and I mean it started to rain...well you could see the water rising bit by bit...but none the less it was rising. All of the sudden the water was past the second step of my place so I told my girl the we need to go look for the kids..because for some reason in my dream none of them were home. So we set out to find the kids. We had no problem finding them...except the youngest girl we have...getting her was a bit weird. The water was already up past our knees when we say her in the water.Sorry I forgot to mention that we were in a truck with big tires...as I was saying..when I got off the truck to grab her she went under water. I then dove under water to get her but I could not find her. I started to panic and repeatedly went under water to find her. I toldy girl to help me ...so we both were going under water to find her. Now the water was already up to our waist and still no mm o daughter yet. Well I came out the water and my girl said look there she is..as I turned my head to look..I see her holding on to the tire of the truck..we both run to her and grab her ...put her in the truck and off we go...as I looked back I can see a wall of water maybe like 20ft high coming at us...as I tell eveyone to hold on....my girl wakes me up so I can take her to work...

I dreamed last night about sitting in my car on the road looking back at a frozen river's edge. I touched the ice and it broke loose overtaking me in my car. I saw water swoop over the top of the car and I was telling myself to just breathe! After the water receded I then walked through severe weather changes in a mater of a few minutes.
What could this mean???

My dream was drastic. An earthquake on the ring of fire started the dream, I raced to my parents in NV, trying to save them. I knew the tsunami was coming, I had predicted the earthquake. My mother refused to listen, but when the lights went out, the ground began to shake and horses went crazy, she listened to my father as he shoved her into the truck. We raced across the desert towards the St. George gorge. The wave was moving fast and about 80 miles behind us, I watched as it hit the mountain range in NV, just on the other side of Las Vegas. It shot up into the air more than 5,000 feet, a spray of water followed by a massive wall. My dream told me the only safe place was 1100 miles inland and 9500 feet above sea level. I find the dream definitions above do not apply to my experience. I was not in a time of my life that was difficult or troublesome. I had no stresses at all when I had this dream.
Funny thing is less than a month later, I predicted an earthquake that moved the entire plate. As if it were floating on water. After that dream and my earthquake prediction, I moved my family 1100 miles inland and 9500 ft up.
I have had dreams come true in the past. I am still expecting this one. i am not the only one that had moved up here because of dreams like that. When they have had dreams come true as well.
Something is happening. At the time I had my dream, 1500 others had similar dreams about an earthquake and a massive tsunami that cleanses the earth.
I believe we are the cusp of something big.

Hi i had a very similar dream to yours i was with all family members and water seemed to be rushing all around us and my grandmother kept trying to go toward it and i had to literally carry her away from it and eventually i woke up i was scared to death when i woke up but didnt think much of it. On 10/10/16 my grandmother passed away im not sure if that was the connection but i had very difficult decisions to help make and cared for her a lot before she passed..
