Blue
Blue represents calm, communication, and spiritual awareness. Light blue often appears in peaceful, serene dream environments, while dark blue may represent deep thought or sadness (feeling 'blue'). Blue water combines the emotional symbolism of water with the communicative energy of blue.
Monkey
Monkeys represent the playful, mischievous, and clever aspects of the mind. In Buddhism, the 'monkey mind' refers to the restless, unsettled nature of thought. Monkeys in dreams may indicate a need for more play and humor, or conversely, that you're being too frivolous. In Hindu tradition, the monkey god Hanuman represents devotion and strength. Monkeys can also represent mimicry or copying others.
