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.
Purple
Purple combines the stability of blue with the energy of red, representing spirituality, royalty, wisdom, and mystical transformation. In dreams, purple often appears during spiritual growth or when higher consciousness is being accessed. Purple clothing may represent spiritual authority. A purple sky or environment suggests a dreamscape operating at a higher vibrational level than ordinary reality.
