Getting Wet in a dream?

To dream of getting wet or someone you know gets wet in a dream in my channelled readings means that either you or them are going through something in life. It could be connected if you are both wet. If you get wet then come inside or go into a building this is a dream about something external in waking life. 

In all my dream meanings here, I go on about how water is basically our own emotions in life. The downpours signify the symbol of waking up, waking up in life. My personal opinion is that rain is also a key driver of protection.  If you are soaked in the dream or heavy rain this is more a generic dream meaning which I cover here. This dream meaning I am talking about is getting wet, a bit like after the shower of rain on you. In that you find yourself going inside after a massive downpour.

  • Being wet means in my channelled readings that something in life is causing a downpour, and a problem but it can be solved.
    Walking in the rain usually means accepting something after an emotional time passes rather than resisting it. Like running from the rain, walking through it means you're processing them even if it hurts.

  • Rain falling on another person in your dream or they are totally wet could mean your feelings about that person, maybe a sadness or maybe a need to protect and comfort them. It maybe that they are going through the same thing as you.

  • Rain falling on you specifically can signify an emotional release, a turning point or a feeling that something (good or bad) is directed at you from outside sources.

  • Seeing loads of rain seen inside the house often reflects seeing an emotional situation from safety or distance. This might signal that you're processing feelings without becoming overwhelmed by them, or that you're deciding to stay guarded rather than jumping right into an emotional moment.

Rain in the bible when I have read this is positive. In my dream interpretation books it means blessing, divine provision and renewal, like washing away guilt or sin and beginning of a new season. I also find that a little drizzle is a sign of favor and abundance from God, while a strong storm may be a call to spiritual reflection during a time of testing. This usually has a meaning which varies with the intensity of the rain and with the dreamer's own life circumstances at the time.
 

What is this dream saying in a general sense?

In kind of all versions of this dream, one theme is the same: water represents emotion, and getting wet represents that emotion touching you rather than staying away. It does not matter if the dream is comforting or disturbing depends less on the water itself but more on how you feel while it happens, your emotional tone is the best indicator of what your subconscious is processing.
