Ship Dream Meaning

Dreaming of a ship is tied to a large undertaking in your life, a long voyage you have started or are planning. A ship carries far more weight than a small boat, so this dream often comes when you are handling many responsibilities at once, such as family, work and a long-term plan. The ship's condition and your role on board make the picture clear.

• Crossing the sea on a big ship

  Crossing the ocean on a strong ship speaks of confidence, a sense that you can handle any challenge, however big.

• A sinking ship

  This dream often comes when a big plan or responsibility you have taken on seems close to collapse and control is slipping from your hands.

• A ship anchored in port

  A chapter of your life is on a short pause, perhaps a time to rest before your next step.

• Being a passenger on a ship

  You have handed much of the control of your life to someone else.

• Steering the ship yourself

  Holding the helm means you are determined to choose your own course.

• A ship lost in fog

  Your goal is unclear to you right now. Still, this dream does not tell you to stop the voyage, only to move ahead with a little more care.
