Shallow water can have both positive and negative connotations. On one hand, it could mean experiencing happiness and lucky circumstances in your life, but on the other hand, it may also represent bad health or declining well-being. The stones represent finding a path to transform yourself into a better person. This likely includes actions such as quitting a bad habit, taking up meditation and daily gratitude, or reading more. However, jumping around and between them in the water suggests you may not be ready to make those changes yet. If you wait too long to change your life for the better, there may be dire consequences for your inner balance. However, if you make the effort to do your best from now on, you may find your life drastically changing for the better in a short amount of time.
