On the bus to work but for some reason my family were in it. The bus overturned and ended up in a lake and started to fill rapidly with water. My main focus was getting the glass smashing hammer out. But it was locked by key and I had to find the key. By the time I eventually got it all the water had gone away and when I got off the bus everyone that was on the bus was at the pub talking about what happened.
The dream you described appears to symbolize a sense of chaos and potential danger in your waking life. Being on the bus with your family may represent how your personal relationships or family dynamics are intertwined with the challenges you face in your work life. The bus accident and subsequent filling up with water suggest that you may feel overwhelmed or out of control in your current professional situation.
The focus on finding the glass smashing hammer locked by a key represents the need to find a solution or a way to break free from the difficult circumstances you find yourself in. This could indicate that you are actively trying to search for tools or methods to handle the challenges in your work life, but facing obstacles or feeling limited in your options.
The fact that the water eventually goes away and everyone on the bus ends up at the pub talking about what happened suggests that the worst is over and you may find relief or a safe haven from the chaotic situation. This could imply that despite the challenges and setbacks, there will be a resolution, and you will be able to gather with others to discuss and process what has occurred.
Overall, this dream may be reflecting your subconscious concerns about feeling overwhelmed or out of control in your work environment, while also highlighting the importance of finding a solution and seeking support from others. It may be beneficial to evaluate your current work situation and explore ways to regain a sense of control and stability.
