snake dreams

snake dreams again...and water dreams. I hadn't had any for some time...they're back now.
A few days ago the first one: a killer whale, a seal, and a dead mouse. And now the second dream. This time the water was slow-flowing, full of algae. I wasn't scared of it, which was a good sign, but as soon as I started walking in it I felt uncomfortable, itchy. I had to turn back...and that's when the snake showed itself.
Cats used to be the animal most featured in my dreams, but I've been having so many water-snake dreams since january, and all through this summer. For this past month they'd stopped though. And now another snake, a black coiling dragon-snake, its head as big as my body. And this second dream also helps me understand the first one.
I already knew the water, I already knew the snakes. I know my dreams, they've spoken to me many times. I know why they're here again.
I'm training every day, dancing for hours on end, but now that I also have university classes to addend, and a job (more like three) to keep, its all starting to feel overwhelming. The dreams came as soon as I started to feel it, the weight of responsibility, the pressure to do everything I should do, to be everything I should be.
The dreams tell me I mustn't forget, they bring me back to what is real, to what is important. They are a warning...
I am so close now. Water is my friend. Snakes are my friends. But it can all fall apart again if I let it.
They ask me to go back to my core, to my centre. Do not betray. Do not stray. Do not forget.
Be strong.
