Interpretation 2 — Nancy Wagaman

Drinking any beverage might represent: “Taking in” (as in admiring a view or absorbing an idea).

Gaining understanding or knowledge (as in “drinking from the fountain of knowledge”).

Satisfying a yearning or need.

Restoring or refueling yourself physically, emotionally, mentally, or spiritually.

See also the type of beverage you were drinking, and consider your feelings and motivations (for example, tea might represent relaxation or thirst-quenching, while coffee might represent energy).

Drinking an alcoholic beverage can represent: a desire to “numb out” or escape a problem, a desire to feel more relaxed or more interactive, a desire to be accepted or go along with the crowd, a habitual form of behavior or thinking.

Interpretation 3 — Theresa Cheung

If you are drinking in your dream, this connects with feelings of thirsting or longing. It suggests that you will find a satisfaction of your longings, either emotionally, physically or spiritually. It can also denote absorbing something, taking nourishment and, by so doing, it points to a change in some way.

If you are thirsty in your dream, it may be that you are thirsty as you sleep; if this doesn’t apply, a dream thirst suggests that you may be feeling emotionally parched in waking life, as water is a symbol of the emotions. Generally, if you are drinking something sweet, this may suggest a longing for more affection in waking life, whilst dreaming of a stronger drink may suggest a need for more energy or a stronger approach to a problem.

Interpretation 5 — Ella Freeman Sharpe

Drinking alcoholic beverages in a dream version of escape from distasteful realities.

If drunkenness is the theme, the dreamer is losing control of responsibilities and wishes to be relieved.

To see someone else drunk, the dreamer looks upon that person as an irresponsible dependent. Drinking water or milk in a dream is often the result of a bodily need, either thirst or hunger.

Interpretation 6 — Gustavus Hindman Miller

For a woman to dream of hilarious drinking, denotes that she is engaging in affairs which may work to her discredit, though she may now find much pleasure in the same.

If she dreams that she fails to drink clear water, though she uses her best efforts to do so, she will fail to enjoy some pleasure that is insinuatingly offered her.

Interpretation 8 — James R. Lewis and Evelyn Dorothy Oliver

Because water is a symbol of the unconscious, drinking water may indicate being nourished by the unconscious. Drinking alcohol may mean that one is seeking either pleasure or escape. Alcoholic ecstasy is also sometimes used to symbolize divine ecstasy, so that drinking in a dream may show a “thirst” for spiritual experiences.
