DREAM DICTIONARY : This dream dictionary is based upon hundreds of real dreams and has been meticulously researched. However, the only person who can truly identify the cause of a dream is the dreamer. Use the questions and quotes on this page to help you find out what has triggered your dream.

SAIL : Boats tend to link to moments of emotional momentum and movement. They symbolise moments when you are excited or feel a sense of journey. Yet sailing ships tend to drift and are vulnerable to the elements. They can find their way onto dangerous rocks or maybe simply blown off course. They can therefor refer to a sense of emotional drift.

QUESTIONS to help you make associations(pick the one that makes most sense to you)
- Have you let yourself be blown off course in some way?
- Are you just drifting into trouble?
- Just how in control of things are you?

KEY WORDS : Drifting, not in control

KEY PHRASES(Pick a quote which captures your feelings right now. Think especially of the day before the dream) :
- "I just drifted into it - I was not truely in control"
- "I let myself get blown off course"

DREAM ANALYSIS : What is the symbolic meaning of sailing ships in dreams?

Sailing ships can show that you or others tend to drift with the wind and will be vulnerable to strong forces. E.g.

"I need to stick to things. I tend to allow myself to be blown off course"[Dream symbol - picture of sailing ship sinking dream]

"I was put off by what my friend said. I have been really upbeat about my pregnancy but she was saying that she had reservations about congratulating me because of the miscarriage I had last time. It makes me really worry about the chances"[Dream Dictionary - sail boats dream ]

Sail boats can suggest a lack of real control and indeed a sense of drift. E.g.

"I got pushed into causing some trouble yesterday. I did not want to but allowed myself to drift into it. "[Dream Dictionary - sail boats dream ]
