Computer
Computers represent mental processing, intellectual work, and the logical mind. A malfunctioning computer suggests cognitive overload, confusion, or an inability to process information. A computer virus may represent toxic ideas or corrupted thinking. In modern dreams, computers increasingly represent the boundary between real and virtual life. Being unable to use a computer may reflect feeling outdated or unable to keep up.
Flood
Flood dreams represent emotions that have breached their normal containment — feelings that are overwhelming and out of control. This can relate to grief, anger, love, or any intense emotion. Floods can also symbolize major life changes that sweep away the old and bring new circumstances.
