Whichever one you chose, read yours first and then the other three, because most people have had at least two of these and the second one is usually the more interesting.

The most common of the four, and the one people lower their voice to mention.

Teeth hold your face in place and let you speak and smile, so the sleeping mind reaches for them when the subject is your standing rather than your mouth. The detail that gives it away is that almost everybody remembers what they did with the pieces, since a dream about losing something would be finished at the losing and this one keeps going.

There is one hard finding, and it does not say what you would want. Researchers at Ben Gurion University found teeth dreams tracked with tension in the jaw on waking rather than with distress. It is correlational, and the authors say so themselves.

Notice that it almost never includes the landing.

That is the whole shape of it. The dream is about the moment of no longer being held rather than about impact, and these cluster around stretches when something that had been steady stopped being steady. They tend to stop on their own once it settles again.

Two different things get muddled together here, and they are worth separating. The short twitch that wakes you as you are dropping off is not the same experience as the long fall, and people describe them quite differently.

Rising water is slow, and that is what makes it its own thing rather than a flood or a wave. The dream gives you time to watch, and most people do not move.
|
|
So the feeling carries more of this one than the picture does. Dread, calm and resignation each point somewhere quite different, and it is worth knowing which of them you woke with.
|
|
I will be straight with you: there is no hard finding on water dreams at all. This is folklore, read for a very long time as feeling arriving faster than it can be handled, and whether that makes it true is your call.

A house you did not know |
|
|
Usually a room you had somehow forgotten, in a house that is yours inside the dream while being nowhere you have ever lived.
