I dreamed that I was sitting on a beach on holiday, and I saw this giant wave coming in to shore, I grabbed the kids and ran into the hotel and we went up as far as we could, we got to the top of the hotel and stayed there, I looked out of the windows and the water was up to the windows outside even though we were up on the top floor.
When I looked out the window again I saw that the water had receded and almost gone.
This type of dream is quite common and not usually a premonition dream, it can be translated quite easily:
Being on holiday shows how you wish to take a break from everyday life and it's pressures, hotels represent temporary structures, in this case, help near by that shelters you from the powerful emotions you have to deal with. You are therefore protected temporarily from overpowering situations that are emotionally charged and all around you. (or the situation is only temporary)
In dreams, windows are seen as a view into the past, future or into current situations, they are also used to represent your eyes and seeing things as they really are.
Because water symbolises emotions and the way in which they flow and ebb, its a good symbol to describe how emotions can spill over into every section of our life. A tsunami is a representation of how we can be totally overcome or taken over by our emotions perhaps because of something that happened at a distance, or a change that occurred in someone else's life. Waves simply represent the way emotions can wash in and out, take over and change the current set up.
Salt water can also be used to represent tears in dreams language and this is also why it provides a good symbol for emotions.
In contrast to the negative view of water describing tears and emotional turmoil it is also used as a cleanser and being such, is able to clean and clear the negative (dirt) away.
In your dream, the water did recede and this highlights that the circumstances and emotions that wash in, will wash out just as quickly.
It is impossible to say what causes these powerful emotions to appear so suddenly or in what section of your life they will correspond, but you are forewarned and therefore forearmed with the knowledge that they will pass and that you will find solace by climbing upwards and being above it all.
The emotional situation seems to be going on around you but because in your dream you and the kids manage to climb above the level of the water I would say that you are adept and able to cope well with what happens and rise above any emotionally charged circumstances that might be building up.
