Swimming in a dam occurs when the mind navigates how much emotion or wealth can be held before the pressure becomes too great. The dream processes the tension between a concentrated force and the structure that holds it in place, using the movement through water to test the boundaries of what has been gathered or suppressed.
This movement across an unsteady realm suggests a transition through a phase of internal regulation. The dreamer experiences the effort of traversing a space defined by its potential for sudden release. The containment carries a heavy burden, as the structure works to stop a chaotic overflow of what is being held. Navigation remains possible.
For its more general meaning: Dream about swimming
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.
