Dreaming of a forest submerged in water - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may capture the feeling that your emotions or circumstances around you have grown too overwhelming to handle.
The forest trees are submerged, with only parts of their trunks above the water. The trees stand still as the water rises or flows around them.
Korean lore: There isn’t a clear tradition of interpreting a flooded forest on its own. Some readings combine water with the traditional view of trees as a foundation for daily life, seeing it as a sign of major changes in your circumstances. (This reading draws on folk interpretations that compare trees to the foundations of life, and adds the image of water in the scene.)
