What does dreaming about well & spring mean in the Bible?

A deep source — drawing water with joy

In Scripture

Wells in Scripture are meeting places and sources: Isaac reopened his father's wells, and Jesus met a weary woman at one with the offer of living water. Isaiah promises that "with joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation." A well dream may ask what source you are drawing your life from.
