The struggle of almost drowning in a pool suggests a moment where the slow gathering of your inner life begins to rise above your capacity to contain it. This dream may point to a period where the very things you have gathered to provide yourself with stability and ease are becoming the source of a sudden, overwhelming pressure.
You may find that the calm you have worked to build is being replaced by a movement that you cannot yet direct or hold at bay. This tension between your desire for a settled existence and the surge of what is being felt can make the surface of your life feel fragile. The weight of these gathered currents is present, as you find yourself gasping for a breath that the depth of your own experience seems to withhold. Your ability to reach for the air remains a part of your current movement.
When you are drowning in a swimming pool, the sense of being overtaken shifts from the realm of feeling to the realm of your own security and the resources you have built. The loss of control is felt more sharply because it occurs within the very structures you designed for your own comfort and leisure.

Alice CandorInterpreter interprets your dreams
The figure that keeps coming back in a dream has usually been waiting a long time to be looked at. A dream tends to bring forward the side of a life that daylight leaves out. What feels alien in it might be the part of you most in need of a hearing. Nothing has to be settled tonight. Which detail stayed with you after waking?
