Mud

'Mud' in a dream represents the inability to separate the awareness of the subconscious mind from the conscious mind. Water represents conscious life experiences and dirt represents the subconscious mind. Mud is a mixture of the two -- they have blended together into something that is neither clear water nor solid ground. This reflects a confused state where you cannot distinguish between your outer experiences and your inner thoughts. You are not able to separate what is happening in your life from the subconscious beliefs and projections that are coloring your perception of it. Everything is muddled together. When mud shows up in your dream, it is calling for you to create clarity between your conscious experiences and your subconscious mind. Develop the ability to observe your experiences objectively without the distortion of subconscious projections. Practice concentration to sharpen your awareness. Use dream interpretation to understand what is coming from within versus what is happening outside. Clarity comes from the ability to separate the water from the dirt -- to see your experiences clearly and your inner beliefs clearly, without them contaminating each other.
