I was swimming in a calm ocean, then a big wave came and I felt overwhelmed.
Dream of truck, wave
I was on vacation in Lake Tahoe. I was in the water and a big wave kept coming and scared me. Then there was an upside down garbage truck in my backyard. It was going to explode so I fled for help.

Dream Interpretation Analysis
Meaning of truck in a dream
A truck is a heavy duty vehicle. Seeing a truck in your dreams might signify a few things. The truck might indicate a load of work you have to do or someone else need. It might indicate your search for labor and job. The truck in the dream might also indicate heavy burden needed to be moved. According to Kabbalah theory, dreams on a truck represent some trajectory that we are going through due to some charge that is on our hearts and causes us to go through the trajectory in question. Dreams on a truck represent processes we chose to go through due to something that weighed on our hearts. Solving a dream about a truck ride can help us understand what lies behind the choices and decisions we have made in our lives.

Meaning of wave in a dream
Dreaming of a tidal wave, or any massive wave, is usually experienced from the viewpoint of watching it approach, either on shore, from a hill or some other near-by vantage point. This dream may often be accompanied by a sense of fear or panic. To understand dreams of this nature, it can help to start by understanding what water and the sea mean to us in dreams (see “Dream Meanings: Water” post.) If we look at water in our dreams as a symbol of our emotions and feelings, part of our inner world, then tidal waves can be like our emotions welling up and getting a little out of control. One of the advantages of being on shore or nearby watching the wave approach in the dream, is that it gives us an opportunity to step outside ourselves and look at what we we are feeling. This is usually a helpful thing to do when our emotions get so strong that they well up into a massive wave! Tidal waves often appear in our dreams when are under a lot of pressure or when significant change is occurring. They may be a an indication that we feel a little overwhelmed, that maybe we fear we won’t be able to cope or adjust with what we see in our own future. They may occur as recurring dreams, with the wave getting bigger or closer over subsequent nights. This may correspond to our increasing anxiety, or the looming date we fear getting closer. It is worth recognising that when we have these dreams there is often an area of our life that we are not looking at clearly, or that we are avoiding. Tidal wave dreams remind us that if we don’t confront and deal with things that are out of balance in our life, then they will confront us first! There are fewer clearer signs of confrontation than standing right before a towering body of surging water!
