... Remember When It Rained...

"Rain" also meant to be a Latin name for female baby, which means "ruler". I willnot talk about babies and babies onwards, but this is about my life...

In our dreams, the interpretation of rain is contingent on your current circumstances as well as the kind of rain that is falling. Rain naturally cleans, refreshes, and "provides life-giving moisture." Depending on the dreamer it could suggest a period of renewal and fertility (reproduction or creativity). However, dark clouds and a heavy downpour indicate feelings of isolation and helplessness. On the other hand, the heavy downpour could represent unconscious materials and emotions attempting to enter the dreamer's conscious mind.

Rain also differs in the cultural meanings.
In the Judeo-Christian cultural tradition, rain served as tool of God's wrath. Angered by the behavior of his people, God sent forty days and forty nights of rain; the only survivors were the favored family of Noah and the pairs of animals which found refuge on the ark. While in other biblical narratives rain functions as a blessing, this Old Testament story has been very influential in establishing the place of rain and storm imagery in the cultural meaning system. One result of this system of meaning is that rain images like thunder, lightning, wind, and flood tend to symbolize ominous things like anger, danger, and hardship in cultures which descend from the Judeo-Christian tradition.
Such is not the case in all cultures. In the Anasazi culture, for example, rain was held to be sacred. The Anasazi lived in the Four Corners region of the desert southwest -- an arid high-desert environment. Reliant upon the winter snow in the mountain to feed streams and springs throughout the year, and reliant on spring rainshowers to supplement their strenuous irrigation efforts, the Anasazi culture came to view rain as a gift from the Rain God.

Cover my earth mother four times with many flowers.
Let the heavens be covered with the banked-up clouds.
Let the earth be covered with fog; cover the earth with rains.
Great waters, rains, cover the earth. Lightning cover the earth.
Let thunder be heard over the earth; let thunder be heard,
Let thunder be heard over the six regions of the earth.
(Roberts and Amidon 149)
