Dreaming of a Canal
canal, channel, waterway · mixed, depending on how clear the water is
A canal depends on its water: clear water promises a peaceful life and loyal friends, murky water illness and confusion.
What happens in the dream
- Clear water: a peaceful life and devoted friends
- Crossing a bridge over clear water and gathering ferns on the bank: a life full of pleasure and high social standing
- Gliding across a canal in a canoe: a serene life and a loving spouse
- Murky water: tangled situations and frayed nerves
- Muddy, stagnant canal water: illness, stomach trouble and enemies' dark schemes
How you felt
- A need for clarity: the dream often mirrors the state of your feelings, clear or muddied
- Feeling channeled: it may reflect a life that runs on rails
Ask yourself
- Are my feelings clear or muddy right now?
- Is my life flowing along a course I chose?
