Rain iconfeeling like your life experiences are raining down upon you

'Rain' in a dream represents the feeling that your life experiences are raining down upon you. Water in the Universal Language of the Mind represents conscious life experiences. Rain is water falling from above -- descending upon you from the sky without your control. This reflects the experience of things happening to you rather than being created by you -- life circumstances falling upon you from what feels like an external source. Pay attention to the intensity of the rain. A gentle rain reflects a manageable flow of experiences that, while uninvited, is not overwhelming. A heavy downpour indicates that the volume of experiences coming at you feels overwhelming. A storm with rain reflects both turbulent thoughts (wind) and overwhelming experiences (rain) occurring simultaneously. When rain shows up in your dream, it is reflecting your perception that life is happening to you rather than through you. While this feeling is understandable, remember the deeper truth -- your thoughts create your reality. The rain is not coming from somewhere outside yourself. It is the manifestation of seed thoughts you planted, perhaps unconsciously. Reclaim your creative power. You are not a passive recipient of life's weather. You are the one who creates the conditions.
