Flooding the streets in a dream occurs when a surge of feeling washes over the usual paths of a person’s days. When the brain processes an overflow of feeling, it uses the image of a submerged path to signal that the usual routes for movement and progress are no longer accessible.
This disruption occurs because the capacity to navigate external circumstances is being temporarily overtaken by the intensity of what is being felt. The dreamer finds that the structures meant to guide their progress are obscured or rendered unusable by this rising tide. While the familiar ways of moving forward are currently hidden, the dream reveals that the capacity to feel is simply seeking its own level.
The sight of streets flooding in a dream suggests that the obstacles encountered in waking life are not external barriers, but are instead the result of an emotional swell that has made the current path impassable. This detail clarifies that the difficulty in moving forward is a consequence of the sheer volume of what is being processed.

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.
