However, if you see yourself drinking too much, or intoxicated, it signifies that you want to realize your ambitions for power and richness at any price. On the other hand, red wine represents blood, and consequently, vital strength. Drinking it foretells health and the start of a more satisfactory phase. Equally, the red color is associated with passionate feelings. An old bottle of wine symbolizes maturity. (See GRAPES)
