Dream Dictionary
Definition: Dreaming of the beach symbolizes the meeting between your two states of mind. The sand is
symbolic of the rational and mental processes while the water means the irrational, unsteady, and
emotional aspects of yourself. It is a place of transition between the physical/material and the
spiritual. Dreaming that you are on the beach and looking out toward the ocean indicates unknown and
major changes that are occurring in your life. Consider the state of the ocean, whether it is calm,
pleasant, forbidding, etc. Dreaming that you are looking toward the beach, suggests that you are
returning to what is familiar to you. Alternatively, you may be adapting or accepting to the changes and
circumstances in your life. Dreaming that you are relaxing on a beach means that the coming weeks will be
calm and tranquil for you. Your stress will be alleviated and you will find peace of mind. Dreaming that
you are working on the beach means a business project that will consume most of your time.
