Alcohol
Alcohol in dreams represents altered states, social lubrication, celebration, or escape from reality. Drinking socially may reflect your relationship with relaxation and social connection. Being drunk suggests loss of control or lowered inhibitions. For those in recovery, alcohol dreams are extremely common and can represent both fear of relapse and the processing of past behavior.
Garden
Gardens represent the cultivated aspects of your psyche — the parts you've consciously nurtured and grown. A beautiful garden suggests inner peace, creativity, and personal growth. A neglected garden may indicate aspects of yourself you've been ignoring. Planting seeds represents new intentions, while harvesting represents reaping the rewards of your efforts.
