Breathing Underwater: A Dream Interpretation Podcast
Margaux Nelson
Our night dreams can seem non-sensical, bizarre and even flat out disturbing. But if we can push past our human judgments in pursuit of deeper understanding, we WILL find God, every time.
My name is Margaux, I'm the host of Breathing Underwater : A Dream Interpretation Podcast where together we will take the deep dive into this magnificent and mysterious language of God in our night dreams.
Through teaching and live interpretation demos you can expect to unlock metaphorical language, learn common dream symbols and get inspired to interpret your dreams and the dreams of those around you. We will also engage in real conversations around our faith histories and journeys (or lack there of) and lean into the character of God to better know Him and better know ourselves.
Whether you are a prolific dreamer or rarely have dreams that you remember, this is the place for you. If you’re still deciding what you think about God or the things of the Spirit this is a safe place, rich in revelation and curiosity.
It’s time to throw off fear. It’s time to throw off religion. Its time know ourselves as sons and daughters- designed live in the deep, designed to breathe underwater.

Summer Refresh: Dreaming of Your Ex
Breathing Underwater: A Dream Interpretation Podcast
08/26/24 • 20 min
In the final episode of our Summer Refresh series, we revisit Episode 29 to explore the common meanings behind dreams involving your ex. This was first aired as part five of our series on "the deep" things of God.
As we know, dreams are frequently metaphorical. Dreaming about past relationships or even friendships is no exception! Often when we dream about a former relationship, friendship, boss, or even colleague, it is unlikely that God is directing us to return to those situations. Instead, such dreams often indicate that you may be in danger of, or have already fallen back into, old habits, thought patterns, or belief systems prevalent in that dynamic. Discerning which area of your life God is speaking to and understanding the context of the dream is key to gaining clarity.
Margaux shares a personal dream involving an ex-boyfriend, who often symbolizes a spiritual dynamic prevalent in her past relationship with him. In her dream, this ex-boyfriend wasn't a call to rekindle the relationship, but a warning from God that she might be at risk of falling under the influence of these negative forces again. Additionally, if you’re having dreams where you're either kissing, holding hands, or walking with someone from the past, do not fret! This can symbolically represent agreement or alignment with what that person represents in your life. Understanding these symbols can help you navigate the deep spiritual truths God is revealing through your dreams.
*Scripture References: Psalm 29; Revelation 2:4-5
“Anytime there’s pain around something there’s a huge opportunity to believe something false.”
“We don’t have to be afraid of these kinds of dreams or images. Holy Spirit is never going to push us away, He’s always drawing us to Him. There is a fear of punishment or getting called out that so many of us have around these things, but God does not deal in shame...He operates in truth, He loves to reveal what’s hidden, and He loves to keep us healthy and connected to Him and ourselves.”

Summer Refresh: The Sorcery Dream: Intimacy Over Information
Breathing Underwater: A Dream Interpretation Podcast
07/01/24 • 27 min
“We’re missing the point here; I think what we need to address is the burglary that’s going on.” First aired in Episode 7 of Breathing Underwater, Margaux interprets a dream of her own, offering a timely word and inviting the Body into a “stake in the ground” moment regarding the sacredness and holiness of dream interpretation.
There has been a “burglary” in the territory of dream interpretation and we need to address it. The bulk of what we find as we search out answers to dreams, name meanings, numbers, and other symbols is unfortunately rooted in witchcraft/New Age beliefs. It is imperative that we reclaim this territory as sacred and holy; it belonged to God first.
As humans, we can desire knowledge and wisdom outside of relationship (e.g. The Fall in Genesis); it is still a temptation for us today. As Believers, the heart of dream interpretation is and has always been an invitation to deeper intimacy and relationship with God. Join us in this Summer Refresh as we remind ourselves of practical ways to protect the holiness of dream interpretation, and what it looks like to move forward after this “stake in the ground” moment.
*Scripture References: Proverbs 9:1; Genesis 1:3-5; Genesis 3:1-6
“The purity and the holiness of this topic has been burglarized for a long time. And it’s time to make it sacred again. This is His and it’s always been His. And in this podcast we are going to take every measure to protect the holiness and the sacredness of this. This is something that is very important to me, and deep down, at the core of who I am, is to call holy what is holy and call sacred what is sacred and to protect it.”
“It is all about relationship; this is one of the main differences of interpretation that we’re going to see in the world...We are relying on a different spirit. We are relying on the Holy Spirit of God. We are also getting this interpretation...because we want to know Him more and we want to know ourselves more."
"We’re not going after information for information’s sake - we’re going after intimacy. This is a really big difference.”

Summer Refresh: Dolphins + Teslas: Live Dream Interpretation
Breathing Underwater: A Dream Interpretation Podcast
06/24/24 • 46 min
Originally aired in Episode 5 as the first of many live interpretations to come, this session features Margaux’s best friend, Brienne Trauter. Brienne is also an avid dreamer and brings a powerful dream to interpret using the questions we discussed in last week’s refresh.
This episode is so beneficial when it comes to applying the basics of dream interpretation! It’s packed with insightful teaching moments that Margaux later discusses while debriefing the episode. For instance, Margaux and Brienne were able to identify the source of this dream using the framework discussed in last week’s refresh.
We also learn in this episode that the interpretation of the dream will always resonate with the dreamer - even if you feel something else strongly! Interpretation is all about finding a few keys for the dreamer to go forward with and talk to Lord about, even if you don’t get the complete interpretation immediately (though sometimes you do!).
Hungry for more practical dream interpretation insight? Be sure to check out the refresh to uncover more golden nuggets of wisdom as we dive into the meaning of Dolphins + Teslas!
*Scripture References: Proverbs 24:3-4, Proverbs 9:1
“Dreams are so multifaceted. We’re talking about the word of God. We’re talking about something that is living and active. So this could have interpretation now and then six months later have another layer and another facet in three years.”
“The purpose of all of our dreams is to bring us into deeper relationship - into encounter with God and connection with ourselves.”

Summer Refresh: 4 Questions to Start Interpreting Dreams
Breathing Underwater: A Dream Interpretation Podcast
06/17/24 • 46 min
In the second part of our Summer Refresh series, we revisit some essentials originally aired in Episode 4 that will help set you up for success when identifying the sources of dreams and knowing where to start when interpreting. Grab a pen and paper because this is chock-full of dream interpretation GOLD! Taking her own advice, Margaux also goes through two examples of dreams from her life to model interpretation for us.
4 sources of our dreams: Body, Soul, Demonic realm, God
Before interpreting dreams:
- Write the date! If you happened to be somewhere that’s not your norm, this could add to interpretation.
- Write a title for your dream. For example, if it were a film, what would you title it so you could easily pick it out from a pile?
- Write down your emotions. Were they primarily positive or negative? This is an indicator of the source and can help with interpreting symbols within the context and with the witness of Holy Spirit.
Then, invite Holy Spirit to come be with you and to help interpret the dream.
4 Questions to ask when interpreting dreams:
- Who or what is this dream about?
- What area of your life does this pertain to?
- Are there any recurring themes in the dream?
- What are the main focuses of the dream?
*Scripture References: John 6:53-69; 1 Corinthians 1:27; Mark 4:21-25; Proverbs 25:2; 1 Corinthians 2:10
“God is not the author or source of all dreams, but this is secondary in importance to His sovereignty and relational pursuit of us through them.”
“The spirit realm operates on attention. If we’re going to talk about the currency of the Kingdom, we’re going to talk about faith. We have all as humans been endowed with this gift of faith, and we get to choose where we deposit this currency.”

Summer Refresh: All About Symbolism
Breathing Underwater: A Dream Interpretation Podcast
06/10/24 • 30 min
Remember when you dreamt you were naked, your teeth were falling out, or you were pregnant? You are not alone! These are among the most common dreams. Originally aired as Episode 3, this episode kicks off our Summer Refresh series. Last week, Margaux shared a prophetic word about experiencing refreshing this summer as we step into a new season (literally and spiritually).
We’ll revisit key basics of dream interpretation from previous episodes to stay sharp. As the title suggests, we’ll discuss the importance and power of symbolism in dreams. How do you know if your dream is literal or symbolic? The vast majority of the time, dreams are SYMBOLIC - just as God often used symbolism in the Bible to communicate, He still uses that same language to speak in your dreams.
When deciphering dream symbols, here are some helpful guidelines:
1) Rely on Holy Spirit for interpretation!
2) Consider what the symbols mean to you personally and their biblical context.
3) Google the prophetic meaning of the symbol - no shame in the Google game! Ask Holy Spirit to highlight anything He wants to speak through your search.
This episode offers key practical tips for interpreting dreams with Holy Spirit’s guidance, and of course, we reveal interpretation for the three common dreams mentioned above!
*Scripture References: Mark 4:1-2; 1 Corinthians 2:9-14
“What do I mean when I say that dreams are symbolic? I mean that often times you will have a dream where the things or the people in your dreams actually represent something else.”
“We are receiving information in parables and the invitation here is to get into the quiet place, sit with God, listen to your heart, and He’s going to describe and tell you what He was talking about in those dreams.”

Summer Refresh: 3 Ways To Recommit + Refresh Your Dream Life
Breathing Underwater: A Dream Interpretation Podcast
06/03/24 • 15 min
Episode 65 Summer Refresh
As we enter into as CRAZT HOT WEEK in Northern California ( think triple digits )- Summer has arrived. This episode is the first in the Summer series of Breathing Underwater called “The Summer Refresh”. In this episode Margaux shares 3 reasons for the title Summer Refresh as well as 3 practical ways to intentionally engage with the new physical and spiritual season of summer with a return to simplicity and refreshment in the truth of the Gospel, as God as our first lover and to the foundations of biblical, spirit lead dream interpretation. Here are the practical ways to engage with the reset:
- Get a dream journal or a new dream journal. Or create a new folder on your phone.
- Set some time apart to go back through the last quarter of your dreams and reflect. Are there any patterns you see in your dream content? Are there any dreams that have been fulfilled? Make a new folder or tag them so they go into a new mental category.
- Look at your summer and ask Holy Spirit to help you find a REALISTIC rhythm of time to spend with your dreams. Time to seek out God: "For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened”. Matthew 7:8 Take an honest assessment of your days and set goals that are realistic and life-giving.
Summer brings something different for all of us. For some it’s a winding down, others it’s a ramping up and many have lives that stay the same. But let’s acknowledge the change in season and respond to the newness of it but taking a pause to re-align, re-set and intentionally seek God for His voice in our lives.

Breathing Underwater: A Dream Interpretation Podcast
05/27/24 • 29 min
The third in the series on Kids and Dreams, we. Hear from Mila, 7 and her dream called Snake Bites- and from Jackson , 4 on field trips with Jesus and defeating Goliath. Margaux also teaches on how to talk to your kids about their nightmares, about seeing things in their bedrooms, and how to find Jesus and His angels in the midst of it. Dreaming for children can be a sign that their spiritual senses are coming alive and we as parents are wise to make space to hear what they say and to validate their experiences. As we give language to their spiritual experiences we give them keys to trust themselves we set them up for a lifetime of connection to God’s voice. Dreams have the potential to be a rich source of intimacy and connection with God that will only strengthen their relationship as they grow. In this episode you will learn questions to ask, and potential language to use to teach your kiddos about what they are seeing and sensing.

An Introduction to Angels
Breathing Underwater: A Dream Interpretation Podcast
09/30/24 • 17 min
This episode kicks off a three-part series on angels, also known as God's servants or heavenly hosts. We'll explore key questions, like: What is the purpose of angels? Where did they come from? What do they do? How can we partner with them? Do we partner with them? In this first episode, we lay a solid biblical foundation for the series and offer practical insights on interacting with these heavenly beings.
Angels are given to us primarily to help fulfill God's will by bringing heaven to earth. As we grow in understanding who angels are, we will begin to see how God empowers us through partnership with both the angelic and Holy Spirit. This also helps us discern their presence in our dream life. Angels serve many purposes, including warring, protection, revelation, delivering messages, imparting strength, deliverance, judgment, prosperity, encouragement, instruction, and bringing understanding.
Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss the next episodes as we unpack this powerful series and demystify the roles of these heavenly hosts!
*Scripture References: Ephesians 2:8-9; Genesis 18:1-2; Numbers 22:21-35; 2 Kings 6:16-17; Daniel 10:19; Psalm 91:11; Luke 1:11-35; Matthew 1:20-25; Acts 5:17-21; Acts 12:6-11; Acts 10:3-8; Colossians 1:16; Ephesians 6:12; 1 Corinthians 6:3; Psalm 103:20; Hebrews 13:2
“We do not exert authority over angels, not even the archangel Michael resorted to slanderous accusations or spoke of his own opinion against the devil–He used the word of the Lord. So we, too, are to use the word of God when we mobilize angels into action. And we should never slander angels nor use them for slanderous works against others.”
“Angels will only respond to our decrees when we declare out of a revelatory understanding of being a son or a daughter.”
