Meaning of dreams about Receiving drinking water

The presence of other individuals or objects in the dream world indicates outside forces that have a significant influence on your life at the moment. Unlike dream symbols which focus on your body or your feelings, these external symbolic imageries mean you are fixating on something that may be out of your control or a peripheral issue that will eventually have a significant impact on your life. Foodstuffs, in the dreams, are usually thought to be representative of the quality of our financial situation or perhaps a reflection of what our situation could be under varying circumstances. As such, the type of food and its condition may reveal something that you need to do, something that you need to stop doing, or something that is affecting your financial situation in one way or another. Drinking a beverage, for instance, is usually tied to your work ethic. This means that your financial position may be improved or worsened by your behavior at work. The obvious example would be getting a promotion for good work or getting fired for bad work, but this symbol is more nuanced than that. You may be denied a bonus because you were careless with some details, or you may be overlooked to head a project because your workspace appears messy and unorganized. Alternatively, you may earn the appreciation of your boss for discretely pointing out an error rather than joking about it with your colleagues in the breakroom later. Water, as a subset of the drink or beverage symbol, refers to the progress or development of your work-related or career-oriented goals. Depending on how you saw the water or your relation to it in the dream, you could be going through a period of smooth sailing or there may be rough waters ahead. Getting drinking water from someone refers to being on the receiving end of a chain of knowledge. Similar to a mentor-mentee relationship, this symbolic giving and receiving of water means that there is someone in your workplace or field who has the experience or knowledge you need to get to the next level. However, being humble enough to admit that you need their help may be a hinderance in this quest to improved career prospects.
