Wading in shallow water is read as testing a feeling or situation without fully committing. Dream books link it to caution, and to staying safely within your depth.
Where in your waking life have you met something like this lately?
My Cosmic Code has a private dream journal. Write a dream down and the app picks out the symbols in it, shows what dream books say about them and, over time, which words recur across your entries. The journal is stored on your device only.
