To dream that you are taking a shower in clear, fresh water, denotes spiritual or physical renewal or the need to wash a burden out of your life. It is also symbolic of forgiveness. To dream that you are taking a shower in muddy, dirty water, signifies misfortune and minor losses. To dream that you (or someone) is showering with their clothes on, suggests that even though you (or someone) change your outer appearances, it does not change who you are on the inside. Alternatively, your dream may indicate that you are unwilling to let your guard down. You are still keeping up a protective barrier between you and others.Finnish bath, Japanese bath, Kaffeeklatsch, Russian bath, Scotch mist, Swedish bath, Turkish bath, abound, abundance, accord, administer, aerosol, affluence, afford, allot, allow, ample sufficiency, ampleness, amplitude, aquamanile, aspergil, aspergillum, atomizer, automatic dishwasher, avalanche, award, ball, baptize, barrage, basin, bath, bathe, bathtub, bestow, bestow on, bidet, blood rain, blowout, bombard, bombardment, bonanza, bountifulness, bountiousness, bristle with, broadside, bumper crop, burst, cannonade, clyster, cocktail party, coffee klatch, cold shower, communicate, concentrate sprayer, confer, copiousness, costume party, crawl with, creep with, deal, deal out, deluge, descend, dinner, dinner party, dish out, dishpan, dishwasher, dispense, dole, dole out, donate, donation party, douche, drizzle, drop, drum, drumfire, enema, entertainment, evening mist, ewer, extend, extravagance, exuberance, exuberate, fall, fertility, festivity, finger bowl, flood, flow, flurry, flush, flush out, foam, foison, fork out, fountain syringe, froth, full measure, fullness, fusillade, garden party, gargle, generosity, generousness, gift, gift with, give, give freely, give out, gout of rain, grant, great abundance, great plenty, gush, hail, hand out, heap, help to, hen party, hip bath, holystone, house party, house-raising, housewarming, hummum, impart, inundate, irrigate, issue, kitchen sink, landslide, lather, launder, lavabo, lavatory, lave, lavish, lavishness, lawn party, let have, liberality, liberalness, lots, luxuriance, mask, masque, masquerade, masquerade party, maximum, mete, mete out, mist, mist concentrate sprayer, misty rain, mizzle, moisture, mop, mop up, more than enough, much, myriad, myriads, needle bath, nozzle, numerousness, offer, opulence, opulency, outpouring, overflow, overwhelm, party, patter, pelt, piscina, pitter-patter, plash, plenitude, plenteousness, plentifulness, plenty, plunge bath, pour, pour with rain, precipitate, precipitation, present, prevalence, prodigality, productiveness, proffer, profuseness, profusion, proliferate, quantities, rain, rain tadpoles, raindrop, rainfall, rainwater, render, repleteness, repletion, rich harvest, rich vein, richness, rinse, rinse out, riot, riotousness, ritually immerse, run over, salvo, sauna, sauna bath, scads, scour, scrub, scrub up, serve, shampoo, shatter, sheet of rain, shell out, shindig, shindy, shower bath, shower curtain, shower down, shower head, shower room, shower stall, showers, sink, sitz bath, slip, slosh, sluice, sluice out, smoker, snow, soap, sparge, sparger, spate, spatter, spindrift, spit, splash, splatter, sponge, sponge bath, spray, spray can, sprayer, sprinkle, sprinkler, sprinkler head, sprinkling, sprinkling system, spume, stag, stag party, storm, stream, substantiality, substantialness, superabundance, surprise party, swab, swarm with, swash, sweat bath, syringe, tattoo, teem, teem with, teemingness, tender, toivel, torrent, tub, unfrozen hydrometeor, vouchsafe, wash, wash barrel, wash boiler, wash out, wash up, washbasin, washbowl, washdish, washer, washing machine, washing pot, washpot, washstand, washtub, watercart, watering can, watering pot, wealth, weep, wet, whirlpool bath, yield
