Drowning
Drowning dreams are powerful expressions of feeling overwhelmed — by emotions, responsibilities, relationships, or circumstances. They can also indicate suppressed emotions that are 'pulling you under.' If someone rescues you in the dream, it may indicate a need for help or that help is available if you ask.
Number Seven
The number seven appears across virtually every spiritual tradition as a number of completeness and sacred significance: seven days of creation, seven chakras, seven deadly sins, seven wonders. In dreams, seven represents spiritual completeness, cycles coming to fruition, and divine order. Seeing seven of something or the number seven itself suggests a spiritual message or a cycle nearing completion.
