There is a possibility of feeling overwhelmed by the very things being sorted. The capacity to move through these depths remains a sign of the mind’s ability to find its own rhythm.
Floating in a swimming pool means the dreamer is not working against the water but is instead letting the mind’s currents carry them.

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.
