Ship
A long passage over deep water
What it often means
A ship in a dream is a vessel for the long emotional crossing — larger and slower than a boat, built to carry you and others over deep water toward a distant shore. It speaks to a major journey of feeling, a shared voyage, and your trust in what holds you above the depths.
When it tends to appear
- During a long emotional or life passage
- When you are crossing deep feeling toward a distant goal
- When a shared, larger journey is underway

What long crossing are you in the middle of?
