It symbolizes death to sin, burial, and rising to new life in Christ :-
Rom 6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin so that grace may abound?
Rom 6:2 Let it not be! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?
Rom 6:3 Do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into His death?
Rom 6:4 Therefore we were buried with Him by baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father; even so we also should walk in newness of life.
Rom 6:5 For if we have been joined together in the likeness of His death, we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection;
Rom 6:6 knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Him in order that the body of sin might be destroyed, that from now on we should not serve sin.
Col 2:10 And you are complete in Him, who is the Head of all principality and power, Col 2:11 in whom also you are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ,

Act 2:41 Then those who gladly received his word were baptized. And the same day there were added about three thousand souls.

Water baptism is voluntary and not obligatory, but it is recommended if physically possible as it is an outward physical sign of death and burial of the old self, and the resurrection to a new life with Jesus Christ.
