The significance of Juan's dream was to remind him that nothing ever can be counted on to stay the same except for the wind. The wind is important to him because no matter what happened, the wind would always be there to rustle the sugar-cane fields. Juan, because of all that he had been through only could put trust in the wind because everything kept changing. Now that he was on his inner tube in the middle of the ocean the wind helped him calm down, knowing that he could leave his trust in the wind to always be with him. One important line from the book based around the wind in his dream is, "he remembered, as you remember in dreams that the only thing constant and reliable in those days was the wind." This line really helps my point by saying that all that could be trusted was the wind.
