I was looking out over a lake that the sides were all jeweled and colorful. Their were fish everywhere and I decided to get in the water. I swam under and was amazed by what I saw, beautiful, vivid colorful walls that were moving and swirling around. I swam to the bottom and on the left side their was a small hole, i went through it and it brought me into a smaller cavern, here their was a hammerhead shark swimming in a whirlpool pattern creating a current. I swam into the spiraling drain and drained out into another lake. this one had sea creatures of every kind, just swimming around or resting, but in the middle it looked like a futuristic stonehenge. With standing rocks that had impossible wrap around shapes into themselves. it was an incredible thing to witness and at the middle was a golden chest. I opened it and bright color started radiating out of it blinding me and waking me up.

In the Egyptian system of hieroglyphs, the schematic figure of a lake
expresses the occult and the mysterious, probably by allusion to the underground
lake which the sun has to pass over during its ‘night-crossing’ (but also simply by
associating it with the symbolism of level, given that water always alludes to the
‘connexion between the superficial and the profound’; a lake becomes, then, a
fluid mass of transparency). In the temple of the god Amon, at Karnak, there was
an artificial lake symbolizing hyle—or the ‘lower waters’ of protomatter. And, at
certain times during the year, a procession of priests would cross the lake in
boats, in this way re-enacting the ‘night-crossing’ of the sun mentioned above
(19). The symbolism here is the same, broadly speaking, as that of the watery
deeps. The Irish and Breton belief that the Land of the Dead is at the bottom of
the ocean or of lakes may be derived from watching the sun setting over the water;
and the death of human beings, and therefore by analogy the setting of the sun,
was interpreted as passing over into the nether world. But, as we have suggested,
the structure of lake-symbolism may have arisen directly out of the symbolism of
level; for this latter symbolism, so deeply rooted in the psyche of man, equates all
that is on a low level spatially with what is low in a spiritual, negative, destructive, and hence fatal, sense. The fact that water-symbolism is closely connected
with the symbolism of the abyss serves to corroborate the fatal implications of
the lake-symbol, for the part played by the liquid Element is to provide the
transition between life and death, between the solid and the gaseous, the formal
and the informal. At the same time, the lake—or, rather, its surface alone—holds
the significance of a mirror, presenting an image of self-contemplation, consciousness and revelation.
