In the image of a warrior in your dream you might see the side of yourself that fights your battles and defends yourself and your turf. You are the warrior, whether the dream shows you as a warrior or that side of yourself is projected onto a dream character. When it’s projected onto a character, the warrior symbol can be a way of showing potential to be warrior-like in how you go about your life or defend yourself personally, psychologically, and emotionally, or give you a chance to step back and recognize something about yourself. The warrior is a set of traits and characteristics that you may or may not have: duty, honor, discipline, restraint, structure, aggression, persistence, sacrifice. It can symbolize living by a code. Warriors can have specific symbolism related to situations and circumstances in your life and the roles you play. You’re a warrior when you protect your children and build a home for them, not just a roof over their heads but the home in their minds and hearts. Or if you go to battle daily at work, you might dream about yourself as a warrior. See: War You’re a warrior as you plow ahead in your life trying to reach your goals and personal destinations. Many daily activities are warrior-like, such as when you plan and prepare. You might not see yourself as a warrior, but you still are one every time you act disciplined, enforce a boundary, draw a line in the sand, or make a sacrifice. You’re a warrior whenever you draw on your courage. A warrior can symbolize the hero within you, or one in your life. See: Heroes A warrior can symbolize high skill and keen ability or instincts. Dreams speak to the sources of these traits and characteristics in you, to the people, teachings and experiences that instill them in you and to the roots of your ideas, notions, and feelings. From parents and family members to teachers, coaches, masters, and personal heroes, and from your experiences in games, sports, and conflicts to everything you’ve taken in from media and advertising, your dreams have a tremendously broad and deep pool of possibilities from which to draw. A warrior in your dream might represent something about yourself tied to self-image as a warrior, or an archetype in your psyche. The Warrior archetype governs your energy related to discipline, effort, and sacrifice. It shapes your thoughts, feelings, and perceptions. It sends imagery into your mind related to your capacity for bringing that energy into every area of your life: home and family, work and career, relationships and social life, intellect and leadership. When you dream about a famous warrior such as Bruce Lee or Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, or someone else, famous or not, who embodies the qualities of a warrior, you might see something about that person that you also see in yourself. In these dreams you’re likely to feel kinship or friendship for the warrior character.

The symbolism is created by the fact that things can be immersed in water. It moves, and moves you. Water can be ineffable, the same as emotions. Bodies of water can spark strong emotions, such as when you look out over an ocean. Emotions are sometimes described as “wet,” whereas the opposite idea is expressed if someone is said to be dry and emotionless The state and condition of water presents a wide variety of uses as symbolism related to emotions: calm, turbulent, hot, cold, frozen, deep, shallow. See: Emotions, Ice Plus, being in water is very much an experience of feeling sensation with the body, and emotions are felt in the body. It’s a great metaphor to describe the mind’s experience of emotions. It’s like floating, swimming or immersion. See: Floating Water can be used figuratively to characterize a situation, such as “in hot water,” or “fish out of water.” A flawed argument “doesn’t hold water.” An inexperienced person is “wet.” The symbolism of water can be expressed by figures of speech such as “going under” and “stay afloat.” See: Drowning Water is associated with the unconscious mind because the content of the unconscious is largely outside conscious awareness, just as underwater objects and creatures can be difficult or impossible to see from the surface. Plus, the unconscious mind is like a womb, and the aware ego “floats” within it—that’s how it feels. When water is used to symbolize the unconscious mind, it is usually vast like the ocean, because the unconscious is vast, especially in comparison with the conscious mind. The ocean is mysterious, and the unconscious mind is mysterious, too. See: Oceans, Unconscious minds Water is used in baptism and other spiritual rites because of its associations with cleansing of sins and impurity. Spirit is compared with water because it flows, overcomes resistance, and shapes itself to any container. People are said to “thirst” for truth, and Jesus Christ said he gave “living water,” another way of saying his teachings moved the spirit within people. See: Clean, Spirits In psychoanalytic tradition, water is associated with birth and infantile desires, because a fetus is surrounded by fluid while in the womb, and a pregnant woman’s water breaks when she is ready to give birth. Water connects people back to their mothers, and if Sigmund Freud is to be believed, everyone has a basic desire to return to the warmth and safety of the womb. See: Babies, Giving birth, Mothers This idea extends to water as a medium for creation, and that describes yin in a nutshell. Water is ultimately where all biological life originates. The human body is made up mostly of water, and it’s essential for life. See: Uteruses, Vaginas Murky water in a dream can symbolize clouded emotions. It can symbolize a situation that is murky, dark, gloomy, immoral, or not fully understood.
