A flooded city shows how the structures of public life and the systems of commerce that govern social interaction are overwhelmed by an excess of emotional or chaotic energy. The brain uses such an image to signal that the established ways of managing external affairs are currently being submerged by forces that do not follow the usual rules of order.
The dreamer finds that the usual channels of communication and the predictable flows of trade are no longer reliable or accessible. The dream reveals that the familiar landmarks of community and the routines of social life are being lost under a rising tide. This sight can be unsettling because it suggests a breakdown in the very foundations of organized activity. Feeling adrift in a social or professional world is a possibility. The dream shows that the capacity to navigate these submerged systems is still being processed, offering a chance to recognize where the old structures no longer hold.

Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
