What Does It Mean to Dream About the Sea?
The sea in a dream speaks of your emotions and your subconscious. The state of the sea is the state of your inner world.
In tradition
In traditional dream lore, a calm sea is seen as peace and openness, a rough sea as a troubled period.
Psychological view
The sea is one of the strongest symbols of the subconscious. Swimming in it can show you are at ease with your feelings; drowning, an emotional weight you can't carry.
Spiritual view
Infinity, cleansing, and the feeling of being part of something greater.
Common versions

Ask yourself
Was the sea calling you or frightening you? Which feeling seems "too deep" to you right now?
